Was completely blown away by our recent stay at Cape house! Spectacular views, tastefully rustic house with first class facilities.
Highly recommend it!
The Cape house was a truly special experience. It has everything we wanted/needed for a peaceful and relaxing getaway. We didn’t see a single other soul the whole time we were there (except for the amazing wildlife of course). We will miss the serenity that we experienced and definitely hope to get back there one day soon. The house was more than comfortable and very cosy. Thank you Peninsular Experience.
I have never had such an amazing property that takes so much care in not only providing a home like environment but also in providing a serene, special isolated haven through the various trails that are well kept and we'll marked.
Big kudos to Essential Tas.
The house was beautiful and warm with lots of space for a family. The views were amazing.
