Judy and James are very welcoming , generous hosts.I even got offered a delicious chocolate smoothie when I mentioned I was tired! Not to mention herbs, granadillas and rocket from the garden.
What I particularly appreciated was their engagement with the world and their enthusiasm to make it a better place. I mentioned that there was a march taking place in Cape Town as part of the global protest against Monsanto and what they are doing to our food and they were there like a shot: making posters and singing along with the best of us.
James and Judy can tell you all the latest about where to buy organics and whose doing what in the urban food gardening world.
The bed was gorgeous: I almost could not get out of it to leave!
Newlands is a lovely area central to everywhere I wanted to go. I had a car but I suspect there is also a bus service these days. I felt very safe there compared to other places I have stayed in Cape Town.
I would definitely stay with them again.
