“This adults-only guesthouse strikes me as a tranquil Cape Town base, placing a premium on peace and quiet. Each room's kitchenette adds real convenience, as do both indoor and outdoor pools. I like that it's near Kirstenbosch and Table Mountain National Park, yet still offers easy access to city life.”
