    Nice quaint cozy place! Great breakfast with a wonderful view! Very well managed and maintained by Pam and her very helpful staff. We'd love to visit again and definitely recommend staying here. Pam is a great host, very meticulous, and has great recommendations for things to do around. The cutest thing was a little flag of our country on our breakfast table every morning...just a testament to the personalization and attention to details by the staff! The location is perfect to drive to the best beaches, Robberg hike trail, and Knysna, while being in a safe, quiet, and lovely neighbourhood. Pam has the most wonderful collection of books and works on the system of taking a book for a replacement. She was kind enough to let us keep one even though we didn't have anything to keep back. It'll forever be treasured as a fond souvenir memory.

    En route to Dolphin's Playground we'd detoured to Nature’s Valley, well worth a visit. On our arrival, Pam our host gave us a warm and friendly welcome. We had a lovely room, one of three grouped round a large deck overlooking the sea, with a lovely bathroom. We enjoyed good breakfasts sitting outside overlooking the sea, with fruit, juices, yogurt, a hot meal cooked to order, toast, and tea or coffee. We enjoyed a walk along the beautiful white beach, we also spent a morning hiking a trail on the Robberg Nature Reserve followed by an amazing afternoon at the nearby bird sanctuary. Nearby restaurants were the Fat Fish, by the sea, offering beautifully cooked meals, and Cornuti, good for Italian traditional favourites.
