Pros:

Tout !

Cons:

Arrivé fin avril, il ne fait pas forcément chaud au Cap et pas de chauffage (a minima le sèche serviettes aurait été apprécié)... sinon un endroit que je recommande plus que vivement.

Een mooi verblijf met een goede service van het aardige personeel
Pros:

Groot huisje, mooi en stijlvol ingericht!
Personeel heel vriendelijk, Liam onze gastheer in de ochtend ( ontbijt)was ontzettend aardig. We kijken met een warm gevoel terug. We hadden de eerste dagen wat pech met het weer, maar personeel zorgde dat er genoeg hout lag en stak zelfs de openhaard aan toen we aankwamen, zodat het binnen heerlijk warm was, super welkom!

Cons:

De woonkamer was een klein beetje gehorig, maar de slaapkamers die aan de andere kant lagen niet. Rustig kunnen slapen.
