We loved our two and a half week stay at Alison's lovely garden cottage. The space was very comfortably set up for a couple and could easily accommodate a child, too. The kitchen area was small but included basic amenities and more than enough for making simple meals. The garden just outside the cottage door was exquisite and Alison generously provided access to the swimming pool and barbecue. While the cottage is close to the main house we experienced complete privacy in the accommodation.
Alison was a very warm and responsive host. Though she was away on holiday when we arrived she responded to all email inquiries and requests immediately. She also went out of her way to help us resolve a problem with excess luggage when we took a trip away from the city and recommended a pharmacist when I got sick.
The cottage is very conveniently located in a beautiful suburb that we enjoyed walking around. There is quick access to main Cape Town attractions and to shopping centres. We loved being able to walk through a field up to Kirstenbosch Gardens. Highly recommended.
