Absolutely incredible house and incredible hosts. We thoroughly enjoyed our time at Casa Finchette and were very sad to leave. It is such a perfect and comfortable home, which we instantly felt welcome in. The guest room in which we stayed was very spacious, had ample cupboard space, lots of fresh air and an ensuite bathroom (bonus)! The rest of the house was light-filled, spacious and beautifully decorated. There is a luscious garden too, filled with herbs, grapes and flowers - along with a heavenly outdoor shower and a large sun deck. The house is located in Woodstock - an unlikely place for tourists to stay. We loved Woodstock - it will give you a more authentic feel of the city - as opposed to some of the big tourist areas. Woodstock is filled with great art galleries, restaurants and markets (all within walking distance from the house). The house was only a 5 minute drive from the heart of Cape Town. By day the house is filled with light and energy - a truly lovely place to chill out. It is also extremely secure (for those who are worried about security in SA, you will feel very safe here).

Mark and Annette were dream hosts and made us feel like locals straight away. They gave us incredible and unique tips on where to go, what to see and where to eat in Cape Town - all of which we thoroughly enjoyed. I should also add that they are both warm and fascinating people, and have beautiful pets too (two friendly cats and a dog). They were also very easy to do deal with and professional with booking - it was an effortless process. Can't recommend this place enough.
