athol and his wife were simply amazing. the room is exactly as described and feels like a separate apartment even thoughit is attached to the house. there is a lovely balcony overlooking all the mountains and a lovely pool area. we were given a bottle of wine and water in the room with tea/coffee equipment. we were lucky enough to be invited for dinner with them which was beautiful. very interesting and lovely couple with lots of life experience and pleasure to talk with. Athol went the extra mile and showed us around lovely hout bay. it has everything you need nearby. two lovely cats also. we miss the place and hosts already!
