We loved everything about the Guest House: the comfortable, impeccably clean spacious bedroom, the exquisite dining area complete with log fire crackling away as we were served absolutely scrumptious breakfasts. The incomparable location is at the foot of Table Mountain with a wide choice of restaurants within walking distance. An outsanding guest house and we would happily return if in South Africa.

A fabulous guest house in an excellent location. The accommodation was tasteful, elegant and extremely comfortable. Fiona and her staff were charming and the service was excellent. Breakfast included the best bacon ever (according to Richard!). Highly recommended.

Friendly service throughout. The room was a little small but very comfortable. We particularly enjoyed the breakfasts and port / sherry in the evening! Fresh fruit and drink on arrival were also most welcome.

Good location, staff very friendly and helpful. Room spacious and clean but not a great view (guess we were spoilt on safari!).

What a great way to start our trip to SA. Room 9 has amazing views of Table mountain! From the moment we were picked up at the airport, the staff were so helpful and informatitive. The little extra’s such as the weather forcast and three little chocolates being left in our room for the next day.The room was so beautiful as was the whole guest house and so many places to eat close by. Definately worth a visit. And don’t be too scared to hire a car and get out and about, its quite easy!

A really warm welcome. The room was large and easily accommodated the family. The hosts were really great, service fantastic and great breakfasts (The Knowles Family, February 09).

Views of Table Mountain at breakfast! The accommodation was fabulous and of a very high standard. The staff were wonderful and service excellent. The guesthouse was perfectly situated away from the V&A Waterfront but near enough should you want the Waterfront crowds! (Mr & Mrs Lamont, December 08).
