About the host
Hosted by Aaron Kelly

Having recently left the corporate world to relocate to Somerset West for our sick child, we are embarking on a new journey (establishing a new BnB) that allows us to interact with people on a different level. One that we expect will bring us more joy than before.
Why they chose this property
We are positioned on a peaceful 2500m panhandle (surrounded by properties on all sides) with large old trees in a well-established garden (depending on the season, lack of water can impact the garden).
We are perfectly positioned to provide easy access to wine farms, town, beach, Stellenbosch, international airport and even Cape Town should you need more active night life activities.

What makes this property unique
As hosts, Tracey my wife and I are exceptionally detail focussed and will go out of our way to ensure that you have a great holiday. We believe that being successful in this business depends on the number of repeat business you get as well as gaining exposure via word of mouth from happy customers.
