Excellent location.. within easy walk of shops and the coastal path. In the loft the shower head needs improving. Large towels would make a huge difference. Host extremely helpful and nice.

We stayed only one night at this Lodge but we wish to stay longer. It is such a lovely place with flowers everywhere. It is clean and Denise is so friendly. We fully recommend this Lodge to everyone but don't stay just one night.

Thank you for a wonderful holiday. We really enjoyed Hermanus and the surrounds but especially the lovely little home away from home. Thank you so much. The peaceful garden was exactly what we needed after a "stressful" day at the beach!

such a nice and cosy place, in a quiet neighborhood. my car broke down and I was lucky I stayed in the Eastbury cottage because I felt lost until Jenny's kids helped me get intouch with the rental company and the problem was solved. Thank you kids!

What a great, lovely place to stay. You can just feel and see in every detail that the cottage we stayed in has Jenny’s handwriting. Everything is set up with such a passion and love - we felt like home the second we walked in. And we have never slept in such a nice and cosy bed. We didn't want to leave at all. And Jenny is such a great host and lovely person. Well, would we stay again in the Eastbury Cottage? For sure - and next time we will stay a whole week!

Thanks for a wonderful stay, weather was not always the best but it did not deter from enjoying ourselves”. The bed was the most comfortable on our whole trip ! Not often that I don’t have to take out my own pillows which we carry in the car on all our trips. The electric blankets were a blessing. I have mentioned your B&B to many friends
