    A stones throw from everything one needs in Cape Town. Easy to find and with a beautiful view over the City Bowl. Mark and his lovely ladies working away made for a friendly and welcoming team. Nothing was too much trouble.

    Excellent GuestHouse. The house is very nice, full of natural light and well-maintained. Very clean, with nice common spaces where you can relax. Very good breakfast (thank you, Janet!) and good environment. The location is very good too, quiet...

    Staff (Janet) does it all. the beautiful old house. Close to central CT and V and A waterfront. Glad I got a special. As a solo traveler, without that “gift” and genius rating from booking.com, I would not have chosen the “normal” rate.
