Everything from the management, the staff, the rooms, the cleanliness, the location, the safety, the pool, the garden and atmosphere were superb, I will definitely go back and highly recommend this guest house. No load shedding the whole time, that was excellent. I stayed here for more than 2 months and I really liked it. upt b Tripadvisor and Google review

This guest house is well located for visitors to Helderberg Village being about a kilometer or two distant. There are shops and a coffee shop also quite nearby. The guest house has well maintained buildings consisting of a large single storey house and a seperate outbuilding with a set of rooms. The landscaped garden is well kept and neat. There is a sparkling swimming pool  Read full review Henry Jensen Google review
