Parker Cottage is hands-down one of the best guest houses / B&Bs I've ever stayed at in this whole wide world, and there have been quiet a few. Pamela and her amazing team provide outstanding hospitality on ever level. The rooms are very individual and all are not just beautiful but very comfortable, super clean and nicely appointment. The services provided are spot on ... from flawless airport transfer to many tips on offer what to do, how to get there, what's safe (and what is not), and special local gems ... then there is also very affordable laundry ... as well as baggage storage, useful to organize between segments of a trip. There is also a free tea station for a hot drink during the day, to take in one of the lovely sitting areas in-doors or on the verandah outdoors, overlooking the splendid gardens. Last but not least ... the breakfast. A multi-course feast freshly made that is super tasty and very generous in portion sizes. Really sets you up for a day sightseeing in Cape Town. I already look forward to going back to Parker Cottage ... its just such a special place. P.S. Special neighborhood tip. For food souvenirs ... go to the Olive Brand Deli ... Lifestyle on Kloof Centre, Gardens, 50 Kloof St ... a short walk away from Parker Cottage. It's a most beautiful shops! Ask for the owner Omeros ... one of the nicest people you'll ever meet ... and he will walk you through the options. P.P.S. If you are looking for a guide to explore the many hiking trails in and around Cape Town (and in the Cape area further afield), I highly recommend Justin Hawthorne (good him with name and South Africa Mountain Guide).
