There is nothing not to like.

Very warm welcome from Elisabeth and her manager, George. Fabulous location with views of both Lion’s Head and Table Mountain and an easy walk into all the bars and restaurants of Kloof Street. The property is just beautiful with a lovely bedroom, huge bathroom and a separate kitchen/dining area. We couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay in Cape Town.

The excellent hospitality which was way above our expectations! We wanted to organize a braai together with friends and George was very kind to help with setting things up. Really above and beyond.

The interior of the house is absolutely beautiful—very clean and well-maintained. A lot of space for couple. Elizabeth is incredibly kind, as is the helper, George. We had an amazing experience staying in this house.

Perfect! Attention to detail from George and Elizabeth. Felt very safe, uber was quick and cheap to get back from the waterfront. Loved morning cuddles from Alfie and Leafi

You can't choose the weather!

Beautiful old residence. Suite of bedroom, enormous bathroom and living area with vast views from the terrace over the garden to Lion's Head. Fabulous friendly hosts provided lots of little extras. Great eating places within 10 minutes walk or buy food in and use the facilities. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Stay was too short.

Fantastic location and stylish facilities. Wonderful host and exceptional manager.

Everything was fantastic

Wonderful place to stay in Cape Town. Lovely welcoming people. Much bigger than we expected and the pool area was lovely and private. We would have liked to stay longer. We felt safe walking around the neighbourhood. We used the city sightseeing hop on hop off bus, about 15 mins walk away (downhill). Ubers are very cheap to come back in the evening. We also walked up Lions Head from the house. It took 2 hours to the top and was the highlight of our trip.

The interior of this property is seriously stunning. If you’re searching to stay in a nice area in Cape Town and in a lovely characteristic ambiance, this is definitely the place to book. Me and my sister loved every part of it. And the owners are very hospitable and kind. We would definitely come back!

An interesting sqaure lavatory seat that we chatted with Elisabeth about. It is based on a Victorian style and doesn't encourage lingering!

This is a fabulous accommodation. The setting is quite magnificent and the service we received was exceptional. Elisabath, the owner and George the very efficient housekeeper could not have done more to make our stay enjoyable. We would most definitely stay here again when next in Cape Town. We can highly recommend this wonderful private apartment.

Liked everything, but pool too small for swimming.

Good, safe location. Easy Uber into city center and other sights, also walkable to local restaurants. Beautiful view to Lion’s head with backdrop of Table Mountain. Spacious room and adequate kitchen facilities for 2. George, caretaker, looked after us during our stay and lives on premises, as does owner Elizabeth. Nice courtyard/garden to relax in with “dipping” pool.

The property is incredibly spacious and takes up the entire front floor of this beautiful house. You have privacy and sole use of the pool and outside area. I was working and there was excellent WiFi due to the solar electricity generation. There was also quiet air conditioning which we did use successfully at night as it was hotter than average. My wife was with me and made use of all the facilities. The bed was exceptionally comfortable and the toiletries smelt divine. The property is a 10 min walk to the top of kloof st with fabulous restaurants. We also ate in some evenings because the venue was so special. It has spectacular views of table mountain and Lions head and the sunsets were stunning. The host kindly also left us a complimentary bottle of wine and lots of goodies with an honesty system. We met the owner Elizabeth who was charming and interesting. The housekeeper George was wonderful. He is funny, bright and very responsive. We also felt safe in the area and wondering around.

No bath.

Handy location in quiet residential suburb with security.

The location was excellent with Table Mountain towering over us but Kloof Street with all its many restaurants was only 10-15 minutes walk away. A peaceful neighbourhood. We had the entire ground floor with a terrace overlooking our pool and stunning views to the mountains - the perfect place to sit and read or sip a G+T. Our hosts, Elizabeth and Roy, were extremely helpful with advice and assistance...and George did a fantastic job running the place and looking after us.

Such a beautiful place at a perfect location between the centre and e.g. table mountain/Camps Bay. Elizabeth and George were very friendly and everything is available and has been thought of; really a perfect stay with great hospitality!

We stayed for 5 nights and it felt like a little paradise within the city. The house feels so cosy and was very clean. The bed is really comfortable and the shower is amazing! When you get out of the front door, you have this wonderful view of Lionshead and when you turn your head you can see the Table Mountain. We had good weather and enjoyed the swimming pool and sunbathing chairs. George, the house manager, takes such good care of the house and it’s guests. It is also a very safe area and really quiet. We were so sad to leave and will definitely come back one day!

Beautiful property in a lovely area with an awesome view of Lions Head and Table Mountain. Hosts and staff are lovely and attentive, and keen to assist where they can. We felt spoilt the whole time we were there.

Thank you for such great hospitality Elisabeth. The property is gorgeous, large and had everything we could have needed. A beautiful area, well connected and exactly what we needed for a few days in Cape Town.

Could have stayed longer!

This property is just a beautiful place with character and lots of space inside and out. We had a lovely private garden area with sun beds and small pool and dining area with steps up to the entrance with a lovely terrace which ran the full length of the building and had a great view of the Lion's head and Table mountain. Elisabeth and Eric looked after us so well, and what a bonus to meet Alfie the great dane and chatting to Roy. The area, in 'Gardens' is quiet and we felt extremely safe there with plenty of room on the street to park our car. This is without doubt the best accommodation we have stayed in in Cape town and hope to return next year.
