“Excellent: very restful and we will stay again without hesitation; hosts were warm and so helpful.”
Our hosts were very welcoming and were happy to meet us earlier than the official check-in time, which was great. They took time to explain the facilities and gave us a comprehensive instruction book.

“Great cottage and garden in a quiet aera of Stellenbosch. Except the construction of a new house nearby this time.”
Pam looks for the details in the cottage. Everything is there, from the towel to salt and sugar. See you hopefully soon in Stellenbosch.

“A true home from home in a quiet location with welcoming hosts.”
A spacious, well-appointed and spotlessly clean cottage set in a peaceful garden. Perfectly located within walking distance of the cliff path and shops. Mike and Pam are friendly and thoughtful hosts. Highly recommended.

“The perfect home away from home”
A beautiful quaint cottage in a quiet treed lane. Super clean and comfortable! Newly renovated with all amenities in the kitchen, bathrooms and bedrooms. Mike and Pam welcomed us when we arrived and were on call 24/7. It really is a home away from home. We will most definitely be back.

“Absolutely delightful.”
Such a beautiful, clean, quiet and extremely well-appointed cottage. It had everything we could possibly need, including a washing machine. Mike and Pam were so welcoming and have gone the extra mile to make the cottage comfortable with thoughtful touches all over, even including a little washing powder.

“Lovely cottage and gardens, fantastic host!”
We have almost finished our holiday in SA and this is the best place we stayed. The cottage is beautiful, the garden was lovely and Pam was the best host. She booked our whale tour for us on request. We wished we had stayed a couple more nights.

“Private, well equipped and well located. Perfect base for a visit to Hermanus and area.”
Very well located in a quiet area, but very convenient to beaches, shops and restaurants (less than five minute drive). Whole unit is yours, with lovely garden. The second bedroom and its en-suite bathroom is small, and possibly more suited for kids. However, rest of unit is very spacious, and well equipped.
