Neill’s place is located a stone throw away from one of the best beach. You get an amazing view of the ocean every morning it’s magnificent. The are is safe and secure. There is a mall near by with many options to shop and eat, you are also an Uber away from the lovely town of Stellenbosch and many magnificent wine estates. I hight recommend visiting at least one for wine tasting or lunch.
However best to know that during the Christmas & New Year festivities the beach can get very crowded, so if you’re not into crowds best to plan an excursion away from the beach. Also it’s quite far from town and malls such as V&A, you can take an Uber but probably just for a once off visit. So if you want to explore other nearby town of Stellenbosch and wine estates this is the perfect location for you. Neill is a great host.
