Comments - What the Guests Say

Wow, all we can say is thanks. We have never felt so safe in our lives before. The Maxi - and Trelli Doors made us feel extremely secure. J&B, UK

Please book the flatlet for us again for the coming weekend. This will be our 10th stay with yourselves. At your rates, it's almost cheaper than living at home. Pattersons, East London

Such a great place to stay. Pity about the shouting couple the last few days, but like all things, they leave...and peace returns. Andy, PE

Comment from Martin:  We specialise in Antique Cape Dutch furniture. See www.capedutch.co.za.  Please read the house rules. Why do some adults shout so loudly at each other so much ? And in such a peaceful environment ? Gee, there's so much laughter around here.

We came from the UK to get married in Cape Town. The three days we spent with you were a highlight of our holiday. The visit to your River Lodge with its resident iguana and fruit trees made us want to emigrate. Words cannot express our gratitude. M and N, London

Recently we had a horrible experience in London where we stayed in a fifty pound a person a night room. There were lice and other bugs. How wonderful to be back in clean surroundings. GG, PE

I was here for a week for work. Next time it will be for a two week holiday. Your open spaces, fresh air, tidy gardens made me feel especially safe. EM

Ubuntu. I will never stay anywhere else again.  Peter, March 2005.

We stayed with you last year for the Easter weekend. And immediately rebooked for 2005. Words cannot express what a wonderful time we had - all 19 of us. Thank you, thank you.  Please book us for 2006 again. My son would like a drive in your Ferrari please.  Paulo dos Santos and family, March 2005.
