Stay more than one night :)
An absolute wonderful stay so close to Kirstenbosch gardens even if it was just for one night. Will definitely extend to at least 2 nights next time. Beautiful gardens, lovely clean room and wonderful breakfast. Thank you!

We loved every minute of our 8 night stay! Tim’s hospitality began at the moment of our arrival to the guesthouse, continued all week and concluded with a family-style send off when it was time to travel homeward-bound. Thé breakfast was wonderful. Every day it included, among other things, stewed dried fruit along with homemade fresh yogurt….a delicious traditional South African recipe. Our stay was in August, wintertime, and always there was a log fire crackling in the dining room fireplace! Tim was thé «  concierge » and was available to guide tourists on what to do in Capetown! This was a warm, comfortable, and extremely memorable guesthouse experience!

Utterly perfect hospitality
Oh my goodness, we loved it here! From the instant we arrived the hospitality that we received was immense and the owners & staff there all couldn't do enough to help us. The house/gardens are all beautifully kept and very comfy/clean/relaxing and the area is full of amazing restaurants, wineries and the botanic gardens are a short walk away.. We couldn't have asked for anything more ideal after we came off a long and sleepless flight - we just wish we had booked to stay a bit longer! We'll definitely stay again next time we are in town and would highly recommend staying here without hesitation.

Stunning property, the closest to Kirstenbosch
Tim and Margie are exceptional hosts, and the property is nothing short of stunning. We booked b/c it was the nicest property closest to the Kirstenbosch Gardens. The website says it's a 20-min walk, but really it's <5 minutes to a gate almost across the road. If you are targeting the Gardens or really any other locations on the east side, I can't imagine doing better than Klein Boscheuwel.

Ein echtes Kleinod
Wir haben uns eine Woche rundum sehr wohl gefühlt und vor allem die besonders herzliche Betreuung durch das Eigentümerehepaar Tim und Magie sowie das liebevolle Service von Betsie und Kolleginnen genossen; da wir nicht motorisiert waren, haben Tim und Magie uns selber chauffiert oder waren bei der Organisation der Transfers behilflich - eine so perfekte Betreuung hatten wir bei unseren vielen Reisen noch nie! Das B&B liegt im vornehmen Villenvirort Constantia mitten im Grünen direkt neben dem Eingang zum besuchenswerten Botanischen Garten in Kirstenbosch, ein Mietwagen ist empfehlenswert und macht unabhängig; das B&B ist sehr gepflegt, liegt mitten in einem grossen Garten mit Pool; alles ist makellos sauber; unser Zimmer war sehr geräumig, das Bad mit einer grossen begehbaren Dusche ausgestattet; nachts ist das Anwesen durch einen Wachmann gesichert, man fühlt sich absolut sicher; das reichhaltige Frühstück vom Buffet, ergänzt durch frisch a la carte zubereitete Speisen, wird gemeinsam mit den anderen Gästen im Wintergarten eingenommen und hat all unsere Erwartungen erfüllt; der Haushund Rustie leistet einem von früh bis spät gerne Gesellschaft; das Preis/Leistungsverhältnis ist ausgezeichnet; wir kommen gerne wieder und wünschen, dass das Lebenswerk von Tim und Magie noch lange erhalten bleibt

Wonderful guest house in Cape Town
I truly enjoyed my stay at Klein Bosheuwel (and regret that I forgot to ask what the name means ...). Tim and Margie are wonderful hosts. The house and garden are lovely, the rooms and other facilities spacious and absolutely clean, the breakfast delicious (and healthy). Very close to the Kirstenbosch garden which has a restaurant and a tea room. The restaurant closes around 6 PM on most days but late on (some) Saturdays. An Uber ride to central Cape Town is around 120 ZAR.

カーステンボッシュ植物園まで歩いて行ける家庭的なホテル
街からは離れているが、植物園正門から市内観光バスに乗り、ケープタウンを東回りで大西洋の美しい海岸を眺めながら中心部(ウォーターフロント)へ行ける。美しい庭園を眺めながら、オーナー夫妻のもてなしの会話を受けてのゆったりとした朝食は忘れられない思い出となった。建物も部屋もエレガントであった。

schönes b&b bei Kapstadt
Riesiger Garten, großzügige Räumlichkeiten, sichere Unterstellmöglichkeit für das Auto, kleiner Pool. Die Lage ( grenzt an den botanischen Garten, 2 Straßen weiter beginnt das Weintal von Constantia) wird noch von der Herzlichkeit von Tim und Margie übertroffen, die wirklich alles tun, um einem den Aufenthalt möglichst angenehm zu gestalten. Ob Weintour oder Restaurantbesuch, Tipps für lokale Märkte oder Einkaufen, sofort wird geraten, organisiert und Karten erstellt. Diese Unterkunft ist ein Juwel, wir werden gerne wiederkommen. Neben den Zimmern gibt es für größere Familien auch ein ganzes cottage zu mieten.
