"Great location and it was clean with a nicely sized kitchen though we didn't use it much.

The plugs are too far from the bed that was bad and also the cleaning service person came to ask if we needed the room tidied up 10 minutes before her knockoff time, so we spent the second night with the place not cleaned but it wasn't too bad.

The skylight was also a bit of an annoyance as it made it difficult to sleep with the early light, maybe there could be a way to close it or something. "

I would have loved to stay longer. The location is only 3 blocks from the cliff path and town centre. All is in easy walking distance. Louise and Abel also provide transfer service from Bot River for those arriving on the Baz Bus but there are cheaper transfers available through the backpackers in town.
Breakfast was lovely. And the dogs and cats in the household made this so much more homely for me. Thanks for a great stay!"

"We spent 3 nights at the Brown Jug in Hermanus and have nothing but praise for the owners and the accommodation. Louise and Abel are warm, friendly and helpful without being intrusive. The suites (the word rooms doesn't do justice) are large, comfortable and clean. Bathrooms are spacious and include baths and showers. Extra touches include hot water bottles and hair dryers.

Our only criticism is that we prefer a queen size bed and are not used to sleeping in a narrower one (although I do believe that one of the suites does have a queen size bed).

Finally, the Brown Jug is well situated within an easy stroll to the village and the sea."

"We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Brown Jug. The apartment was clean and tidy and it was very centrally located, so that we could walk wherever we needed to go.

We only have 2 suggestions for improvement.

1) The outside light could be a bit brighter. It was a bit difficult to braai in the evening as the light was quite dim.
2) The sleeper couch was not very comfortable to sleep on. My friend did not sleep very well.

Kind regards

"We booked The Brown Jug last minute as the previously booking I had made proved to be too expensive. The Brown jug came up on RoomsForAfrica and the rates were reasonable. As the rate was now almost half of what we would have been paying I honestly didn't expect much. How wrong I was. It was spacious clean and fully equipped. There was a very relaxing pool area which we made full use of. BBQ was supplied and we were able to take breakfast on our own veranda area. I would not hesitate to recommend The Brown Jug to anyone."

"Just want to thank you for the wonderful weekend. It was a nice relaxing atmosphere. Amy just want to know when are we going again for a weekend.

Thanks for everything

A person feel at home, and that is also what made the weekend so nice.

Our room was big, nicely decorated, everything was neat and tidy. There was even a hair-dryer.

We especially enjoyed the breakfast, the probably best we had on our whole trip."
