We had a great time staying in the cottage. We felt really safe during our whole stay. Shelagh provided us with the best recommendations for activities in and around Cape Town you can get.
The flat was as beautiful as on the pictures, very clean and there's definitely enough space to feel home. Everyday the flat was arranged, even our left over dishes were washed. Every morning, we woke up looking forward to the company of Tana, the Labrador, at our breakfast table (but if you don't like dogs, Shelagh would have kept her inside.)
Nearby, you can find some shops which provide you with everything you need. If you're planning to visit the typical touristic destinations around Cape Town, it's definitively a good idea to choose this cottage as your home base. We hope we'll manage to come back soon.
