What a lovely apartment we had, very clean and comfortable. Our hosts were so helpful and gave us great advice on where to go & restaurants to visit. The pool was a real treat & we managed to swim & relax the 1st afternoon. Would highly recommend & will definitely return. [lovely touch to have milk in fridge]

Unfortunately we only spent one night at the Brown Jug, we were passing through on our way to Cape Town on hindsite we would have loved to spend our Cape Town week with them. Louise & her husband were fantastic hosts. Their breakfast was better than we had in 5 Star accommodation in Plettenberbay. A home from home. Can definately recommend.
