“Cosy home from home where we felt immediately comfortable and looked after.”
A gorgeous stay at Hedge House Guest House - we didn’t want to leave! From the beginning, Graham and Judy were warm and welcoming and very accommodating to us and especially our 1.5 year old. Each day started off with a delicious breakfast where Graham would ask about our plans for the day and helpfully give recommendations around that location. The room itself was homely and clean and nothing seemed too much trouble. Fingers crossed we will be back in the future.

“A small homely B&B”
We enjoyed staying at a small B&B rather than a larger hotel but it's further away than we had thought for good dining options and a 20 min drive to Kirstensbosch. We preferred our stay in Newlands last time we visited Cape Town. The cooked breakfast was very good and Judy's banana bread and home make cookies lovely. Our room was spacious and equipped to cook in a microwave pre-cooked meals from Woolworths at home -like our M&S food store, similar quality food and options and its only a walk or short drive away. I did pre-book parking and a dinner option with Judy when I booked our stay of 2 nights, over 10 months earlier but 2 days before both these become an issue which upset us. Thankfully they sorted the parking issue but nevertheless it shouldn't have arisen. They also placed our pre-bought lasagne in their oven which meant we could enjoy our packed full day out.

“Best choice you can make”
Everything, Judy and Graham made our stay an absolute pleasure. The property is lovely and we felt right at home with their three dogs. Our one year old became best friends with them as well. We miss George, Caper and Little Bean already. The breakfast was always fresh and tasty, the room was spacious and clean. I would recommend this place to everyone.
