John House by trade is an artist, and used the guest house as a canvas when renovations started. Each suite is decorated in its own unique style, hoping to give the guests a full experience, beyond just a room to sleep in.
There are some great drives that we enjoy, which are easily accessible from our guest house. The drive to Franschoek over the Helshoogte pass is absolutely stunning, and there are many wine farms as well as a berry farm to stop at along the way. We also love stopping in at our favourite book shop in town, Verbatim, on a weekly basis. They stock second hand, as well as new books and are very reasonably priced. They also have a nice variety, as well as the types of books you won't find in a commercial store.
The guest house is situated in a beautiful tree lined street in one of the oldest neighbourhoods in Stellenbosch. There is a small nature conservation, about 5 minute walk from the guest house which showcases some of the local flora and fauna, as well as a few art installations. The guest house is also located nearby (10 minute walk) the university sports fields, gym and pool. For cyclists, we are located near the Jonkershoek valley, which is a poplar cycle route. We are about 20 minutes walk or 2 minute drive from the center of town, where there are a host of activities, shopping, museums, and restaurants. The surrounding areas offer wine routes, golf courses and markets on weekends. Our area has a dedicated security company patrolling the streets 24 hours a day. We usually suggest that people do not walk after dark.
