Reviews of The Patch


"Patch"

Sally Davidson

"Fabulous venue, very comfortable and will definitely come again."


"Patch Perfect"

(South Africa) Brenda Pratt

"Space, private, spotless, pretty, comfortable - this place ticks all the boxes. In fact, you'd have to go far to find better.

"Space, private, spotless, pretty, comfortable - this place ticks all the boxes. In fact, you'd have to go far to find better.

Chris and Pat were perfect hosts - giving us our space when we wanted it, and being warm and welcoming when we wanted to engage.

It is self catering but there are plenty of restaurants for breakfast, lunch and dinner so you never really need to open kitchen cupboards if you don't want to. However, it has everything you need for meal making, too. Just buy your wine ahead of time, as Camps Bay seems not to have a bottle store.

We would be very happy to be able to come back here one day in the future.

"Lovely accommodation "

(South Africa) Claire Sacks

"Absolutely loved it and when visiting Camps Bay again we will stay at The Patch. Everything was perfect and the couple who own the patch are lovely and helpful.
Can't wait to stay there again!"

"We would highly recommend the Patch for a stay in Camps Bay. The accommodation had everything you could need, a lovely pool and views of the mountains to top it all off! The location was fantastic - a short walk to the gorgeous beach and delicious restaurants and bars as well as being perfectly located for a visit to Table Mountain or a drive around the peninsula. Chris and Pat were lovely it's just a shame we didnt get to see more of them but there is so much to see and do in Cape Town we ran out of time! Restaurants we would recommend in Camps Bay are Ocean Blue and the Bayside Cafe. You will not be disappointed with a stay at The Patch."

"The Patch provides very clean, convenient and safe accommodation in Camp's Bay at a realistic price. There is everything you need to be fully self catering but it's also in easy walking distance of a number of very good affordable restaurants. The location is great for Cape Town and all the major attractions of the city and Cape peninsula. The hosts were very welcoming and helpful but not at all intrusive. The cottage is totally secure, in the locked garden at the back of the main house, next to a lovely pool. There is a lock up garage for guests to use."


"Excellent"

(South Africa) Susan Searls

"Excellent hospitality from the hosts. We definitely recommend lodging at The Patch."


"The Patch, Camps Bay, Cape Town"

Mary Gareh

"It was our first visit to Africa and our first experience of South African hospitality. On saying that Chris and Pat excelled, and were fantastic hosts, made us feel so welcome and advised well on local activities and amenities. We will certainly return to The Patch."


"Location was wonderful "

(South Africa) Anonymous

"One of the nicest places we have stayed at. Chris and Pat were the perfect hosts and always there if we needed any advice. Location was wonderful and we felt very safe. The only negative point was that we had to leave!! "


"The Patch - Camps Bay"

(United Kingdom) Barbara Basten

"A perfect way to relax at the end of our holiday to South Africa. The cottage is very well positioned being close to numerous restaurants. The view to Table Mountain is stunning. We were made to feel so welcome by charming hosts Chris and Pat. A truly delightful find."

"Hidden gem in Camps Bay"

(Norway) Gunnar Skoglund

The house itself is beautiful, everything you need is there, it's a 5 minute walk to great bars and restaurants, and the pool is fantastic too. We couldn't have asked for more. "

The accommodation was a good size, extremely clean and had everything you needed. It was also very private but if you needed any help Chris and Pat were only next door. It was very close to the beach and restaurants (10 min walk) but far enough away that it was very quiet. We would recommend it for any couple that want complete privacy."


"Fantastic"

(Germany) Udo Mayer

"We enjoyed very much the great hospitality of our host. The apartment was very cosy with a great garden. So we enjoyed our stay very much. The place is very recommendable for a couple"


"Lovely"

(United Kingdom) Charlotte Smith

"Lovely place to spend a few days in cape town. Just a few mins walk from the lovely camps bay. The hosts looked after us well and we felt very comfortable there. We will be recommending to our friends. "


"Wonderful Stay"

(United Kingdom) Tracey van der Meijden

"The Patch is a warm, comfortable 'home away from home' within in very easy reach of the centre of Camps Bay. Chris and Pat are fantastic hosts - very hospitable and always willing to help. We had a wonderful stay and would definitely recommend it to anyone visiting the area"


"Fantastic"

(United Kingdom) Margaret Robinson

"Just arrived back to UK from a great holiday in Camps Bay where we stayed for twelve nights at The Patch. What can we say about the Patch? It is truly a little bit of heaven, in a beautiful garden providing an area to sit and enjoy the sun with great views of the back of Table Mountain and the Twelve Apostles. It had everything we needed, was spotlessly clean, very secure and an ideal location for walking to the beach, shop, restaurants and base for travelling around the Western Cape. Best steaks served at the Hussar Grill which is only five minutes’ walk!
Chris and Pat were such lovely, friendly, helpful and kind hosts . We cannot thank them enough for making our stay a most memorable one!

"We returned this morning from a 10 day stay at The Patch in Camps Bay - it was WONDERFUL! The cottage is ideal for 2 people, it has everything that you need and the pool and garden is lovely. It is ideally situated being just a 5 or 6 minute walk down to Camps Bay beach and all the lovely restaurants, bars and shops.

It is also a 5 minute walk up the road to the best steak restaurant we have ever eaten at - The Hussar Grill - you must also try the beef ribs as well, they are divine! The owners of the cottage, Chris and Pat, are such lovely people, so friendly, kind and helpful and nothing was too much trouble. We would definitely recommend The Patch for a relaxing holiday and also as a good base for all the tourist attractions as the buses run from the beach area. We will definitely be going back! "

"Wonderful location in an idyllic corner of Cape Town. Good quality restaurants around the coast and local roads at reasonable prices. Hardly a cottage, more like a summer house in the garden of a lovely residence. The Patch is spacious, tastefully decorated and very comfortable. We loved the little touches provided by the hosts. Nothing was too much trouble. A small pretty garden with a good sized pool provided us with relief from the sun. We loved watching the Table Mountain cable cars in the background and walking down to the beach. This was a little bit of heaven for seven days. We shall return one day and stay for longer. There is so much more we want to enjoy and things we want to experience again."

The place is perfectly located for either days at the beach or day-tours to Cape Point or short visits to the city center (and all the other typical touristic attractions close to the town). The house is in a quiet and safe area, but close enough to comfortably walk to the beach and promenade of Camps Bay. "

Chris and Pat are excellent hosts and keep their accommodation to the highest standard. The cottage is cleaned every day, and kept in pristine condition. The photos don’t do this place justice! It is such a home from home, there is nothing you will want for at the patch. It’s so convenient, just a 5 minute walk to the beach front, restaurants, buses to town, bars, clubs etc. I would highly recommend anyone who is travelling to Camps Bay, to stay at the patch.
Thank you Chris and Pat for a wondering holiday.

We would recommend this as a nice relaxing place to stay but close enough to enjoy and experience the hustle and bustle of Cape Town. We will definitely be back!"

"We had a perfect stay at The Patch. It has a nice and quiet but central location. Camps Bay with it's many activities is a short 12 minute casual stroll away. The unit itself, was well equipped and the hosts generously provided us with tea, coffee, hot chocolate, juice and a lovely bottle of wine during our stay.

A lovely clean and inviting pool sits directly in front of The Patch in a neat garden. Even though the unit is on the same stand as the main house, it is towards the back, with it's own entrance and therefore gives a feeling of privacy. Having a seperate lounge area, with TV and Hifi and also it's own kitchenette with everything that's needed, made The Patch very good value for money compared to similar priced B&B's we stayed in during the trip.

The hosts were very friendly, helpful and attentive to one's needs, without being intrusive to one's privacy at all. A really nice place to stay at, with sufficient space, really pleasantly equipped, with partly sea views. Highly reccommended. I will stay there again in future."
