This house is a bit special, all the rooms were individual and beautifully furnished with great attention to detail, very big comfortable beds and even a cute kitchenette. We started in Sentinel which was great but then moved to Bay View which became available because, well, it had a bay view! Both rooms had their own terrace where breakfast was served at a time to suit yourselves which suited us being a pair of sleepy heads. Fruit, yogurt pastries, cereals plus cooked to order made lunch a late affair. Run by Sue and Martin a couple of Tykes from Sheffield a warm and friendly welcome is guaranteed. We will return.

We spent two nights at the start of our trip here in Hout Bay. As with the best b&bs we could easily have spent longer. Cape Town is an easy Uber ride away and the lovely Kirstenbosch Botanical Gardens are just around the bay. Our room was fabulous: so quiet and with a beautiful view towards Hout Bay harbour. Breakfast was a delicious spread of cereals, fruits, yoghurt, pastries, fresh breads and eggs & bacon if you still had room. Great tea and freshly ground coffee in the room plus a lovely bottle of wine chilling in the fridge. This would make a great alternative to staying in central Cape Town. Thank you Sue and Martin for such a welcome start to our holiday.

The Hout Bay Hideaway is located in a quiet exclusive residential area. The house is beautiful with antique furnishings and is spotless clean. The hosts Sue and Martin were wonderful making our stay memorable. We had the pool view room which was lovely over looking the tropical gardens and pool which was lovely for a swim. We had breakfast served on our private balcony which was fabulous with delicious cereal, fresh fruits, yogurt and lovely cakes. Everything was excellent you won’t be disappointed if you stay here.

We were newly arrived from the UK and the Hideaway was a splendid start to out trip. Lovely spacious room with a veranda. Small kitchenette to make drinks and a microwave. Martin and Sue are very welcoming, full of local knowledge and very keen to make sure your stay is the best. Lovely breakfasts on the veranda. If all our stopping places are like this then we shall have a great stay in South Africa.
