    It was like home away from home. In the heart of suburbia and not in your touristy areas. Comfy, clean, convenient. An attractive, well equipped self catering cottage, perfect for a couple who want to stay short or long stays. Gideon and Dina were very accommodating and available.

    The hosts, Tino and Anja, made me feel at home from arrival to departure. The breakfast was superb and Anja's jam and preserves so delicious. Surely they will see me again. The fireplace at the dining area made the chill of the morning vanish, as Tino set it up so that we could dine in a lovely cozy atmosphere. Thank you Tino and Anja.

    A beautiful little gem. A home away from home - small and cosy but had everything we needed and more. Lights and WI-FI connected during load-shedding. There is a jacuzzi and Sauna on the premises which you can pre book at additional cost. The garden is lush and ambience is lovely. Tino was a star and catered for our vegetarian breakfast. Thank you for your friendly hospitality.

    What a beautiful property overlooking the whole of Somerset West, the views were just breathtaking. My room was lovely and cosy with an added bonus of a fireplace. The staff and host were so helpful and friendly, dinner was amazing set in a lovely cabin feel dinning area. I had a early check out and the staff/host were so accommodating with breakfast before I left. Just wished I had the time to go on some of the walks available on the beautiful secure estate.

    Wonderful location - close to gorgeous wine farms, market and cafes; surrounded by mountains. Easy access to airport and many other Cape tourist destinations. Really well equipped, comfortable and cosy home that very easily accommodated 6 of us. Inverter means one hardly notices load shedding. Dirk was really helpful and accommodating; having wood for us to purchase for the fireplace and the braai was very convenient.
