We had an amazing time in this cottage with fantastic hosts. We didn’t want to stay in central Cape town in a hotel, and the constantia suburbs with the help of our hosts enabled us to experience so much more. They gave us excellent advice on where to visit, which driving routes to do, the best wineries, restaurants and sightseeing tours that we would never have found in a travel book!
The cottage is newly renovated with the finest of furnishings. Bed linen and towels are of the highest quality, it was impeccably clean and on arrival, we were meeted and greeted with such enthusiasm from both Harry and Jane we felt right at home. The cottage is spacious and very well equipped. The fridge was even stocked with chilled wine and beer! Nothing was a problem; if we wanted fresh mint and lemon balm for our breakfast tea, we were able to pick it fresh from their beautiful garden! Tea, coffee and fresh milk were also provided in the kitchen area of the cottage.
The cottage itself was totally private with a separate entrance and a beautiful terrace area where we sunbathed and relaxed after long mornings of sightseeing. If we needed anything Harry was always on hand to help us out.
All in all, I really can’t recommend this cottage enough. It’s perfect for couples wanting a chilled holiday that doesn’t have the impersonal feel of a hotel. Harry and Jane were excellent hosts and we look forward to planning our next trip to Cape town!
