A very lovely and welcoming B&B. The room was perfect for us, very clean with lots of nice extra touches i.e. homemade biscuits and cold water in the fridge. Very safe place with off-road parking. We loved the garden too which the owners clearly taking care of very well. 100% recommended to others!!

Cosy cottage close to the coastal walk

Comfortable, friendly guest house close to Hermanus centre. Our room had a separate seating area in addition to a very comfortable bedroom. Peaceful location and a nice stroll into town. Friendly owner and staff made us feel very welcome.
