Our room was just superb - large, clean, modern and stylish with a great view over the ocean. In addition to tea/coffee, there were complimentary cookies and Lindt chocolates (a small thing that makes a difference!). We also loved the breakfast - very special toasts and muffins freshly made by Linda were unbelievably tasty. We stayed at other places in Hermanus before, and can reasonably say that Ridge House is the best. Highly recommended, and we plan to be back for a little longer stay!
