Lovely cottage with beautiful views of the bay. Very comfortable beds and a well stocked pantry. Well kept garden. Very pleasant sitting outside. We were met by Sheena, our host, who was very informative and welcoming!

Very little to complain about. If anything, it would be the creaky pine floors but honestly, that's part of the charm.

Were greeted by the owner. Provided fabulous history of the 19th century property. So tastefully decorated. Had a real charm hard to replicate. Views from the terrace and spectacular.

Sheena and Roly from Cottons Cottages provided all the extras. Many basic household consumables were already provided e.g. milk, eggs, dishwashing liquid, salt, pepper etc. There were already beach umbrellas, hats, books on the area, maps, binoculars, coolboxes etc. etc. - all items which cannot be transported per aircraft with limited luggage. Providing all the extras was really going the extra mile. Cottons Cottages is well located and in a safe area. You see and hear the waves on the beach and spectacular views of False Bay and the Simon's Town harbour. Braai facilities was excellent. With full kitchen, two large bedrooms, living room and two bathrooms there is ample space. The stoep area is a beautiful calm place to relax. Simon's Town is well located to Kalk Bay, Cape Point and Cape Town. We will visit again!

Dryer was not working, but was able to dry clothes in the sun. Nothing else.

Great location in quiet area with a wonderful view. Friendly host who explained everything and went through the property on arrival. Easy to locate shops in the area and lots of options for dining around the property as well.

A fence enclosing the garden would have been fantastic, as the dogs did run into the road, therefore had to be supervised at all times when outside and we had to lock them inside the house when we went out without them.

Cottage so beautiful and full of character...fantastic location near town and overlooking the ocean! Dog friendly beach just below the cottage was lovely. Clean and with all amenities included.

What was not to like? The place is perfect!

This cottage is, quite simply a little gem of a place to stay. Superb views over the sea, lovely ambience inside the cottage, that is fully equipped for all eventualities. What is more, the host, Sheena, could not have been more welcoming and helpful to us when we arrived. Supermarket is conveniently located nearby, and it's only a half hour walk to get to the penguins at Boulders Beach. After a day of sightseeing, sitting the fire was a real treat, as we stayed in August, in what turned out to be a rather cold spell. It was certainly a change after our time camping in the bush! We all loved it and if we come back to Simon's Town, we'll certainly be looking to stay there again.

This is a beautiful and comfortable apartment with everything you can possibly need for a wonderful stay! Bring binoculars so you can get a good view of whales, dolphins, seals and birds while enjoying the back deck. Host is exceptional, check-in out a breeze, I wish we would have stayed longer!
