Handy to the airport (30mins) and a great location for exploring Cape Town and environs: beaches - Hout Bay, Camps Bay, (15mins), Kirstenbosch Botanic Gardens(15mins), Constantia wine district (15mins) and the Cape Peninsula via way of the cliff-hanging Chapmans Peak road. Not to mention Cape Town itself just 15mins away over the Camp Bay road pass. The breakfasts were absolutely amazing and set you up for a full day of activities!

Relaxing place with fab view
We stayed in Avignon room.garden ,pool and view are exactly as on the pictures.lovely garden , relaxing and friendly host. Room is very big and Comfortable although a bit dark and one can see Hout bay in the distance.nice big bathroom. One problem wax the internet access, we like planning things and looking at routes/menus...and there is no net in your room you have to go back at the front t of the house by the pool to be able to use it which is a bit of a pain at night or if weather not so good

Quiet out of the way guest house
Situated at the top of Hout Bay the guest house is a quiet oasis with a beautiful secluded garden. The rooms are comfortable and well maintained. Our host made us feel ever so welcome and went above and beyond to help us with things. This is what made the experience stand out. You will need a car and Otis quite a walk down (and back) to Hout Bay.

Relaxing and enjoyable
My visit was too short as I only spent one evening there. The location of the guesthouse was perfect for visiting Cape Town and Table Mountain. The family was so pleasant and welcoming. The room was decorated beautifully and was very clean and comfortable. The grounds were impeccable and it was relaxing to hear the birds while in the gardens.

Wir hatten einen wundervollen Aufenthalt in dieser Unterkunft für unsere Tage in Kapstadt. Wir hatten ein sauberes Zimmer, ein bequemes Bett und guten WLAN-Empfang. Das Beste an der Unterkunft waren jedoch die Gastgeber. Wir haben den Herren des Hauses zwar nicht kennengelernt aber er bereitet ein sehr gutes, leckeres Frühstück zu mit Ei in allen Variationen und selbst gebackenen Muffins oder Cookies. Die Gastgeberin hat uns für Kapstadt und Südafrika wertvolle Tipps geben können und hat geduldig auf alle unsere Fragen geantwortet. Von unseren insgesamt 8 Unterkünften in Südafrika unser persönlicher Platz 1. Falls wir je wieder nach Kapstadt reisen, ist diese Unterkunft unsere erste Wahl!
