“First of all we were so pleased with the location of the property, the views were stunning of the surrounding mountains and sea. Also the welcome was wonderful, making us feel totally at home straight away. The property was extreamly comfortable and unusual. The owners were also very helpful with information about the surrounding area. We will visit again.”

Excellent hospitality displayed by staff and willingness to assist wherever possible. clean rooms with lots of windows is stunning and well maintained and clean. overall an excellent place that we will love to visit again. the only negative, which was minute in comparison to the awesome place was the shower head. tend to direct water everywhere except where intended. a quick fix that ultimatly does not affect the great venue.

The welcome we received from both the owners and the staff was delightful and we felt at home straight away. Our room was very comfortable indeed and the little touches that were available like access to glasses, plates and cutlery should we wish to have a takeaway and a refrigerator for use of the guests was very much appreciated. Also drinks that were available too on a 'trust' basis. The breakfast were excellent with wonderful views of the mountains from the dining area. Altogether an ideal place away from the hustle and bustle of Cape Town but not too far away.

Great location for touring the Cape peninsular with excellent restaurants in the Hout Bay area. The staff were very attentive, especially Banda. A real gem who provided superb breakfasts. The Art gallery lives up to its name in that it is an art gallery as well as a guest house with stunning photographs on all the walls. All in all a great stay and would certainly go back if we are in the area again.

The welcome was exceptional and we felt like old friends. The staff are superb and the owners are extremely friendly and helpful. The breakfast was the best we had at any of the places we stayed during our five weeks in South Africa. We stayed in Agapanthus Room, which is probably the smallest room in the Guest House, but we had a lovely private balcony overlooking Hout Bay and the garden. The house is full of beautiful photographs taken by Martin, the owner and there is a swimming pool for lazy afternoons. Altogether a memorable stay.

In all points: excellent!! Top site with beautiful view. Very nice owners and staff. In short time you go to all interesting sites around the cape (20min to Cape Town). The guest house with pool is extraordinary. All rooms differ in a very exclusive style. And you can feel like home. Thanks!! All perfect!

Easy to find. The room in which we stayed needed maintenance - there was damp coming up through the walls with paint flaking off. There were dead insects on the floor. The towels didn't smell fresh. In our opinion the breakfast was not prepared to a 4 star standard to which we are accustomed too and we felt that breakfast was offered late at 8:30am - Most other establishments we have stayed at offered breakfast from 7:30am.

Wir haben im Gästehaus als Ausgagngspunkt für unsere Kapstadtbesichtigungen gewohnt.Die Einrichtung ist sehr schön und liebevoll gewählt. Unser Zimmer im Obergeschoss hatte eine wunderschöne Terasse mit herrlicher Aussicht über die Bucht und auf die Berge.Der Service war über alle Massen gut, sehr herzlich und aufmerksam. Wir würden jederzeit wiederkommen.
