Ellie’s place is a little piece of heaven tucked away on the side of Tokai mountain. The scenery, the views, the garden and loving dogs are beyond comparison to any other spot I’ve found on Airbnb in cape town.
With her husband, Ellie has built and decorated this space for travellers to match her own high standard of finish and interior design. The bathroom and shower is large and modern; the beds and their linen are top quality, as are all other furnitures and fittings. We arrived late at night and were welcomed with a bottle of wine on ice, and fresh fruit, yoghurt and croissants for the morning. When my boyfriend was a bit sick for one day, Ellie and her husband were quick to provide medicines and advice. They also warmly welcomed our use of the pool and were keen to tell us about all the walks and things to do in the are and beyond.
The beauty of the home, the warmth of their welcome and advice; the high quality finishings, interior design and attention to small details makes you feel like your being welcomed as a part of their extended family. Ellie is a sincere and high class host.
