We had a wonderful stay and this would certainly be our first choice when we return to Cape Town (we have been many times staying at some of the best hotels etc). Location is very convenient with a great supermarket 5 minutes drive away, walks through the vineyards nearby, feels safe and numerous good restaurants less than 10 minutes drive away. Stafford, caretaker, is friendly and helpful and keeps the place clean and tidy. The house and garden are as beautiful as the pictures show and its very quiet and peaceful. But most of all Hilbre is a great host, always concerned that we are having a good time, gives many good recommendations, small issues resolved quickly and very accessible and prompt with her responses.
