I really enjoyed my stay at Lucia's Cottage. Stuart messaged me before and met me on arrival to hand over the keys. It had everything I needed for my stay, even milk for my morning coffee, which I really appreciated as I arrived quite late. The cottage had good wifi (with a wifi backup in loadshedding). There was also a rechargeable bulb in the kitchen and rechargeable light in the bedroom so I was never in the dark during the Stage 6 weekend! There was secure parking for my little car and the cottage is very conveniently located in Claremont. I will definitely stay there again, thank you!

With its convenient location, the property offers easy access to many of the city's must-see destinations. Although the cottage is situated in a very central and busy area, yet it is very quiet and private Cavendish Square, a very trendy shopping mall, is a short walking distance, where you can find a number of excellent restaurants, shops and cinemas.
