If you are looking for a place to stay in Cape Town I can not recommend Christie's house highly enough. Communication prior to our trip was fantastic and Christie even sent us a fantastic booklet on the house and the local area. The house is exactly as described, spaces, clean and comfortable with all the amenities you would require...including wine which a lovely and unexpected gift! There are two large double bedrooms both with on suite bathrooms and so no need to toss a coin over who gets which room.

The location is fabulous being close to the centre of the city with easy access to the waterfront whilst having the feeling of staying in a quaint cosmopolitan village. There are great local amenities, bars shops restaurants within a short walk. Most importantly the area feels very safe and we had no issues (being 2 ladies) walking about.

There are plenty of local car hire company's and the location was perfectly situated for quick access to the cape for a fabulous day trip. I have absolutely no reservations in recommending Christie as host and her beautifully restored townhouse as a great place to base yourself to experience Cape Tonwn
