Beautiful views and warm hospitality! Mark was very responsive and quickly helped us navigate issues that came up (e.g. road closures because of the marathon the weekend we stayed there, water supply problem, etc.). He also very kindly accommodated our late and (very) early departure times! The beds were comfortable, and the wifi was fast and unlimited if you need that sort of thing while you're in town. There is quite a steep and long-ish set of stairs (about 3 flights worth of stairs, maybe?) to get up to the cottage (this is included in the listing details but wanted to highlight that for anyone who regularly uses a wheelchair etc.). Noordhoek is a nice base if you want to be close to the ocean/beach and about equidistant from the city centre / winelands / southern peninsula, and you will likely become quite familiar with driving through Ou Kaapse Weg ;)
