    character manor
    spacious rooms
    noisy environment

    Charming older manor with character and spacious rooms. The side sea view from the Beautiful Double Room provided a nice backdrop for relaxation.

    Very poor WiFi connectivity made things tough. Only one host available from 7 AM to 3 PM, limiting assistance. The laundry fee felt steep at R400 for any amount of clothes. Noise from other guests was concerning, along with a missing panel on the shower door and the need for anti-mosquito repellants.

    cozy atmosphere
    amazing view

    Cut to the chase, here's my take

    What a hidden gem! This charming spot seemed like home, with a cozy atmosphere and a amazing sea view from my private balcony-perfect for yoga. The staff were warm. Nestled in a tranquil neighborhood yet minutes from Seapoint's vibrance, it's a sanctuary that I can't recommend enough!

    smoked fish
    sea view
    room upgrade
    power outage
    lack of generator

    OMG, the smoked fish from nearby Bootlegger Coffee Company was a flavor explosion! And waking up to that sea view every morning was just pure magic. Plus, Liesl surprised me with a room upgrade .

    Okay, so the power went out during loadshedding, and Ashby Manor doesn't have a generator, but the staff kept us in the loop about the schedule. Everything else still shined bright!

    sea view
    comfortable beds

    lovely, lovely, lovely

    The sea view from our Beautiful Double Room was fine, and the sound of the waves made for a relaxing ambience. The comfortable beds ensured we had a restful night's sleep after our adventures exploring the nearby shops and beach. The atmosphere was cute, improved with the friendly chats with the staff.

    totally recommend 😊❤️

    The place was like home, and the staff were super friendly. We loved the fine views of Lions Head and the ocean. It's in a safe area, close to shops and the beach. Highly recommend checking out the nearby markets and restaurant scene when you're there!

    comfy beds
    nice decor
    friendly vibe
    cramped room
    noisy environment

    I stayed in the Double Room with Shared Bathroom for 2 nights. The room was a bit cramped but had comfy beds. Honestly, it was a bit noisy because it was shared, so I could hear others around. The decor was nice, and I loved the friendly vibe from the staff. Just wished the bathroom situation was more private.
