Trouble free booking from the UK + coupled with regular email updates from owners (Mark & Julia) even before we got there added to sense of comfort, reassurance and safety. Once we were there, the accommodation (Angelica) was even better than the web photos. Clean rooms/linen/bath rooms on the inside + great views, table on the 'stoep', swimming pool &... More

We stayed in the Ivy villa (2 double, en-suite bedrooms) for six nights and had the most wonderful time. The accommodation itself was clean, well-equipped and very comfortable for 4 adults. The views from our verandah were gorgeous and we braaied (bbq'd) most nights to soak in the beautiful surroundings. The staff were friendly, attentive and very helpful. Perfect for... More

Our son found The Tarragon through Trip Advisor and we couldn't have been happier with the accommodation, location and views. We spent six nights and had three braais (barbecues) while there. It was a perfect base while we explore Cape Town and the surrounding area. The owners and staff were all friendly and helpful. More

Our family have returned for the FIFTH time and have already booked again! The Tarragon offers a fantastic location, with spectacular views of Hout Bay and wonderful grounds. As always we stayed in Angelica, which is a perfect layout for a family of four or more. The very large terrace allows bbq's to be enjoyed overlooking the mountains and valley... More

I have just stayed in The Tarragon for Christmas, it was absolutely beautiful, peaceful, and a complete joy to stay in.

We have just got back from 8 nights at this wonderful property. We stayed in the spacious Thyme villa with our 7 and 9 year olds. Although the layout is a bit unconventional (the living room does not interconnect with the bedrooms) it suited us ideally. The kids shared their own room and bathroom and my wife and I had... More

We stayed here on the recommendation of my sister. We (family of 4 with children aged 11 and 8) stayed here for 5 nights. It was absolutely fantastic. The cottages were huge, very high quality and the welcome and ambience of Tarragon was perfect. The location is tremendous and Mark knows the whole area very well. Cannot recommend the place... More

In preparing for our vacation to Cape Town, I looked long on hard for the ideal accommodations. I wanted a central location, quiet and secluded, yet close enough to restaurants, shops and the beach. Bingo - I found “The Tarragon”. On arrival we were met by Mark, who showed us to our Saffron Cottage. It was everything I had hoped... More

My wife and I and our two young children went on our fifth trip to Cape Town for some escape from the winter gloom in London. We have always taken two weeks and split our holiday in half with the first week in Cape Town and the second in Stellenbosch for some wine tasting. Now we all know how risky... More
