42, Strathmore was idyllic and exceeded all expectations. Elmarie responded promptly and helpfully to all communications from the initial enquiry to our final arrival. She was friendly and helpful and could not be a better host. The house itself is beautiful and very well appointed with everything you could want and so much more and the quality of the fixtures, fittings and furnishings is 5 star. The house is in a brilliant location overlooking Camps Bay itself but also boasting views of the Lion's Head and the Twelve Apostles - magical. There is plenty of parking and loads of room which our three generation family made good use of with space to be quiet and alone or congregate and be sociable. The resident chickens are a lovely bonus and their freshly laid eggs delicious. As for Innocent - he is a treasure and nothing seems to be too much trouble and he keeps the house spotless as well as providing excellent local knowledge.
We could not have had a better stay and would definitely book again if we have the good fortune to return to Cape Town. Thank you Elmarie - we had the BEST time and love your house (and thank you Innocent too - a gem in No 42's golden crown).
