Great stay in a beautiful location. We had an awesome stay at Hout&About. My bridesmaids and I stayed the night before the wedding and then a bunch of the wedding party stayed the night of our wedding. The breakfasts were freshly cooked and were delicious. Thomas and his team were very accommodating of our large group and the use of the common areas. The view from my room was absolutely breathtaking.

Accommodation met expectations. 5 star. Room was very comfortable. All facilities met expectations and more. Every morning we were treated to a delicious breakfast. The host and staff were extremely friendly and helpful. However, the car parking on the slope was inconvenient.

Verblyf het voldoen aan verwagtinge. 5 ster. Kamer was baie gerieflik. Alle fasiliteite het voldoen aan verwagting en meer. Elke oggend bederf met 'n heerlike ontbyt. Die gasheer en personeel was uiters vriendelik en behulpsaam. Die motorparkering op die skuinste was egter ongerieflik.

Get out and look about for alternative accommodation. When we arrived at ‘Hout and About’ we were met by the establishment’s friendly assistant who helped us to park our vehicle. Unfortunately, we had to leave our vehicle on the road’s verge, which is never a good idea when one is driving a hired vehicle. When we telephoned, we were informed that the accommodation enjoyed on-site parking. This was an untruth. We were escorted to a rather small room, which disappointingly was located at the back of the large house that looked out onto a wall that lay one metre away. No matter how well represented, no large mirror is going to negate the fact that I found our accommodation especially pokey and claustrophobic. The owners should turn this room back into a storeroom. Presently, it will only generate bad reviews. This is what happens when owners over-exploit their homes to generate maximum revenue at the expense of their guests. The room was perfectly clean, tastefully decorated and the bed was comfortable. The house enjoys spectacular views over the town, the mountains and the sea, that we could only enjoy from the deck and the large sitting/dining room. The owner/s never presented themselves all the time we were there and left the management to the assistant and his wife who were also tasked with preparing the breakfasts. When we arrived in the morning for our breakfast, it had already been laid out, and having been left unattended, several flies had settled on the food and were buzzing around. I was occupied in waving them off the food and subsequently did not eat any of the food, choosing to order a cooked breakfast. The owners should be aware that it takes a female fly only one minute to lay a full cluster of eggs. One should take a clue from the establishment's name – that is, get out and look about for alternative accommodation.

Nice view of Hout Bay. We had a wonderful stay at Hout & About. The pocket-sized room was the only room available, because there was also a tour group staying at the same time as us. The little room is a bit small for 2 people, but would be ideal for a single person who just sleeps there. Nothing wrong with the cleanliness of the accommodation. The breakfast was really excellent. The location is perfect if you want to see the area around Hout Bay and Chappies.

Mooi uitsig oor Houtbaai. Ons het heerlik gebly by Hout & About. Die sakpas kamer was die enigste kamer beskikbaar, want daar het ook 'n toergroep gebly dieselfde tyd as ons. Die kamertjie is bietjie knap vir 2 mense, maar sal ideaal wees vir 'n enkelpersoon wat net daar slaap. Niks fout met die netheid van die blyplek nie. Die ontbyt was werklik uitstekend. Die ligging is perfek as jy die omgewing rondom Houtbaai en Chappies wil besigtig.
