“My exploration of this Simon's Town property reveals a place where the natural world makes an intimate appearance, with the thrill of observing porcupines visiting the grounds each night becoming a genuine highlight. The proximity to Windmill Beach for a dip and the pleasant walk along the penguin boardwalk into town underscore its enviable setting. It's clear that thoughtful touches, like the welcome provisions and attentive hosting, contribute to a truly welcoming atmosphere.”
