Houtkapperspoort

We had such a brilliant time in the rural mountain idyl that is Houtkapperspoort. The cottage we stayed in was beautiful, well appointed, clean and well equipped. Tastefully decorated and in a stunning location, it was the best possible base for our time in Cape Town. Ross was incredibly helpful and could not do enough for us. The whole place is well run and very safe. I cannot recommend more highly.

Amazing, tranquil location on the slopes of Table Mountain. The booking agent, Ross, was extremely helpful.

We stayed at the estate at the beginning of our SA trip and gosh they set the standard. From our first arrival we were warmly greeted by Lazlo at the security office and he was so friendly and graciously answered our questions showing is the way to our cottage. Throughout the stay the estate staff were friendly and professional giving a lovely sense of homeliness. The cottage itself was a quaint 3 bedroom cottage with a loft bedroom and ensuite upstairs. Decor was fresh and light. The indoor fireplace being a great feature for our winter visit. The estate was very well kept with beautiful gardens, lawn areas with an incredible spance of mountain views wrapping around the whole estate. The resident springkokkies were a great bonus for our children. Ross and his team have set a very high standard and started our trip on a memorable note. They certainly model the Gold standard of South African hospitality and we will absolutely stay here again on our next trip to Cape Town. Thank you for the wonderful stay.
