We liked the fact that we were not in the hustle and bustle of Cape Town during the holiday season! The cottage was comfy, very clean. We had total access to the backyard which has a view of table mountain. The hosts were very accommodating to our needs, especially with an early check-in request. We loved the fact that there was no TV. There are 3 casual restaurants within close walking distance, as well as a small convenience store that has serious curry take outs. We dined at 2 of them and were impressed. We tried an upscale restaurant close to the Gardens by host recommendation, at it was exquisite! Also like the 'wine exchange' where you take a bottle and replace it with a favorite! Thanks Humphry Family!
