The breakfast was perfect.The best scrambled egg and the most delicious marmalade that is made by the hosts. The location was ideal as I have friends in the area and it was very convenient for them to fetch me for outings. Sarah and John were excellent hosts, they really seem to enjoy people and are calm and efficient. I loved that all the guests sit at breakfast together.I met some lovely people.

My room was very small but it was good value for what I paid for the accommodation.It had everything I needed.

Due to my excursions starting early, they provided breakfast before I went. Easy access to the property and made very welcome enjoying both Sarah and John's company over a glass of wine

Sarah went out of her way to enjoy that everything was perfect for me. Helped sort out the local Uber company as found it difficult for me to get on my mobile. Gave good advice on places to see locally and where the local places were to get food and drink. Kept in touch before arrival and made to feel very much at home. Thanks

We spent 3 nights in this beautiful old house manager by Sarah and John. We had a wonderful time here, the owners are lovely people who take great care of their guests. They waited for us on a late check in and let us have an early check out according to our flight schedule. Location is amazing, just 15 min driving to town and right on the highway to get around Western Cape area. We were offered every day a full breakfast and Sarah's scrambled eggs are just perfect! Being winter we couldn't access swimming pool but it looked really nice.

Actually we really appreciated everything.

Inviting old & rather large farmhouse, pool & beautiful garden area, peaceful & relaxing atmosphere…next to Table Mountain Forest with great hikes & views…very warm & friendly welcome, so nice hosts Sarah & family, providing help for whatsoever…large breakfast selection, freshly prepared…conveniently located near shops, great restaurants & pubs… Had a wonderful stay at Newlands GH, felt like a home away from home…unfortunately I could not stay long(er). Thank you again for everything!

From the moment I arrived at Newlands, it felt like a home away from home. The warm and friendly service truly went above and beyond. Conveniently located near shops and restaurants, it was the perfect central spot for my stay from December 15 to 19, 2024. Sarah and John greeted me with such kindness, making me feel instantly at ease. My room was spacious and offered a stunning view of the mountain. I’m already counting down the days until my next visit!

The location was excellent for where we needed to be. Close to some really good restaurants and some pubs where we could have a quiet drink before dinner. The option for breakfast was a real bonus as it meant we didnt have to go out and find somewhere to eat. My scrambled egg and toast was delicious and I enjoyed the fresh fruit and yoghurt. I got to chat to two tourists at breakfast who told me all about their travels. Our hostess, Sarah, and owner of the property was extremely helpful and friendly offering us restaurant recommendations. I felt safe and our rooms were spacious and comfortable. It was easy to find and close to all amenities. It was a last minute booking and Sarah was extremely accommodating. Wish we could have stayed longer but we were going to visit the wine routes for the weekend. Will definitely recommend this accommodation and will definitely be staying again as I visit Cape Town a few times a year so its nice to have a place that I can stay at regularly

Friendly and relaxed, the Newlands Guest House is good value, excellently situated in a leafy area away from the central city but handy for the motorways into town, to the airport or to the False Bay coast. There is a pool, and parking for one car per rental. Breakfasts are generous, and Sarah and John are welcoming. It feels like home: not as crisp and cocooned as a hotel, but with character.

Maybe a few more toiletries could be provided.

We were only able to stay here for one night between flights, but wish we could have stayed longer. On the eastern slopes of Table Mountain, it's cozy, clean and well situated, close to the airport, downtown and the amazing Kirstenbosch Botanical Gardens, and just a short stroll away from South Africa's oldest pub, the Forester Arms. Our room looked out on a lovingly tended garden. Guests mingle in the sunny dining room for breakfast. Sarah and her husband took good care of us. Highly recommended.

I just love their service. They serve with humanity, and they have good hospitality. They even allowed to stay beyond check out as we had to be at Cape Town Station at 17.00. That shows kindness. They always checked on us; thus, we felt like home. Breakfast was also perfect.

I wasn't comfortable with dogs moving around. For the first day, the towels were dirty. Since it was cold, when we took an additional comforter, it had a lot of stains. Therefore, I was not comfortable using it.

The owners are so helpful and understanding. We really like them and would like to come back again. The breakfast is made by the owners themselves and was decent and good The location is absolutely beautiful at the back of table mountain. Its an astonishing place to stay

there was nothing we didn't like. The house is old and door locks are not of the latest type but that's all in the game. However the owners are the whole day around, so the place is safe
