My fiancé and I stayed at Barbara's cottage over a short holiday in Cape Town. We absolutely loved it and Barbara was a friendly, helpful host. The cottage does indeed have a spectacular view. The cottage is clean, comfortable, and well-appointed. The location is safe and within walking distance to shops, restaurants and the beach. The entire area is lovely with fantastic views of the mountains and the sea. Barbara was an ideal host. She was friendly, helpful and accommodating. We would definitely recommend staying here.
