Froggy Farm Self Catering

we had an amazing stay at Froggy Farm, thank you Jean for your hospitality!! hope to see you again

Stellar view. Peace and quiet. Charming accommodations and friendly host who helped me with my bags and made me crepes!!! Plus -- a sweet cat who kept me company the first night.

Everything was perfect!

The location, the view everything about it was exceptional

Lovely views. Comfortable accommodation.

Easy and private.

Just a few preparations could be better. Keep doors open to air room before arrival. Especially as the dishwasher in same room as bed so leaves a strong detergent smell Small but essential items missing from kitchen. Like cloth to wipe counter and wash the odd dish.

The host was very friendly and hospitable She is always willing to go the extra mile for her guests The room was far more beautiful and spacious in person and had everything we needed

The hosts were amazing and very accommodating. We had plans after 10am but there was a cycle marathon and the hosts were kind enough to let us stay until it was over. We had a cute little furry friend to keep us company, made me miss my little fur baby less. Absolutely amazing drive to Simon's town, there's some really nice bars and restaurants - what caught my eye was a South Korean restaurant. Safe area, good food, good vibes and amazing view.

The apartment was very comforable for 2 people and the kitchen was very well equipped. We enjoyed our stay there.

Loved the view, the location, the privacy, nice appliances, the homey feel, the host... I find it very difficult to find fault

I didn't like going home😅 legitimately wish I booked more days

Super nice and spacious studio in a very peaceful garden setting close to the forest. It's a very calm and beautiful space. Jean was fantastic and went out of the way to help us and we'll definitely be back. Highly recommended!

Everything was perfect.

We liked everything. This is a separate apartment next to the owners' house, clean and cozy. Amazing view. We would come back here again. Highly recommended!

The location was convenient to the shops. The living area was clean.

Easy to find property in a quiet cul-de-sac bordering woodland with a nearby hiking trail. We had our own patio and garden with table and chairs, overlooking the woodland to one side and the ocean to the other. The property was nicely decorated with everything we needed. The well equipped kitchen had a dishwasher, washing machine & airfryer!

The views were so beautiful

Noting was wrong it was beautiful

Location and beautiful view. The accommodation was comfortable, private and well kept.

A bit far from the beach

Beautiful garden . Lovely to watch the baboons in the back yard .

Room had no where to hang clothes so had to re iron everything and use the only chairs to put clothes on . No dining table inside , only outside but it was very windy outside and cold . There was only 1 stool in kitchen ( hoping to eat off kitchen counter) part so we asked for another which they brought for one night and then took it back as we were there for 7 nights we had to eat off our laps on the bed . Otherwise besides these moans Suki was lovely . Jean the owner we didn’t see much of . Small tweaks could have made the trip much more pleasant

Eine ruhige und sichere Gegend. Das Apartment hat einen Gartenzugang. Das Bett war sehr bequem. Man könnte zu Boulders Beach sogar zu Fuß laufen.

Es ist ein wenig dunkel.

Super freundlicher Gastgeber mit sehr schönen Tipps. Tolle Aussicht auch zum Wale sehen.

…la cura dei dettagli, lo stile coerente con la natura circostante, la tranquillità e la vista sull’oceano!

We absolutely loved our stay! The place was spotless, incredibly peaceful, and so relaxing that we actually overslept. Thankfully, the host was kind enough to offer us a late check-out, which we really appreciated. We even made friends with the sweetest cat on the property! Everything was perfect, and we’d definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a quiet, restful getaway.

Host very kind! Very nice view from the bedroom.

Beautiful quiet location in the hills above boulders beach. Nice garden and short walk to the beach and town.

With a relaxed, laid back vibe and a great location on the edge of the forest, this place surprised us by being even better in reality than the photos suggest. Plenty of space inside and out, sunsets to get lost in and even the occasional troop of baboons running past the door - it was the perfect end to our holiday. Our host was friendly and welcoming and I would definitely book this place again. Highly recommended!

A gem of a property, run by amazing people! The property itself is incredibly serene and beautiful, from the lush garden to the dog and cat who roam around, to the ocean view. The warning about the baboons gave us a good giggle too! During our stay our rental car broke down and Gareth the host was so incredibly helpful, organising a very last minute early morning transfer and new hire car for us at 9pm on a Saturday, we were very grateful indeed. We would definitely choose to stay here again if the option ever arose!!

The location is great short walk to the beach and nicely nestled next to the Forrest would definitely recommend and stay again

One of the best locations we met during our SA trip. Very warm welcome and we could use all facilities. Our kids joined for some hours which was no problem at all..We loved the pancakes that were offered by our hostess before we left. Pity that we could stay just one night.

Garden, the room, location, comfort and everything I needed.

The spatula I use for cooking broken, could have better utensils for cooking.

Great location and views Comfortable & large Greenery & sea views

The location is serene and peaceful.

Nothing

This property is located in the best part of the town. It is right on top of the hill with a beautiful view of the landscape and sea. The area is also super safe with a lot of nature around. You can easily drive from there in all directions: on one side to the center of the town where you can find cafés and restaurants as well as Boulders Beach, where the Penguins are :), and on the other side to Cape of Good Hope. You can also reach Cape Town through the Panoramic route by going toward Chapman's Peak. Gareth is the owner of the property living in an adjacent house within the same terrain. That is an extra plus because you would feel there is someone guarding the property. Okay, it is a very safe area but still it is nice to have higher security particularly in South Africa. He is also very friendly and would ensure you are not missing anything. Indeed, the apartment was very clean and the bed extremely comfortable. I had one of my best sleep. Next time I will go back there.

This accommodation is one of the best ones I have ever stayed. Lovely and comfortable place, very quiet (we had a great sleep), beautiful surroundings (if you like birds, there are many interesting species visiting the garden), and friendly people. I would for sure stay here again :)

What a beautiful spot for relaxation and rest. Stunning view over the bay and truly comfortable accommodation. Appreciate the attention to detail as absolutely nothing was lacking! Highly recommended indeed!

It is the little things that make the difference. It was rainy and cold, but when we entered the flatlet, I immediately saw (and felt!) that there was a heater that was switched on. The sofa bed where my son slept was made up and the double bed where I slept had beautiful clean linen as well as a warm blanket. We had everything and more that we needed for our one night stay. Froggy Farm comes highly recommended and Gareth and Jean are excellent hosts.

The apartment was amazing and safe from the city center. A nice lady welcomed us and showed us in, we met Gareth later on that day and he was really nice. We had a problem with the gas and he immediately resolved it They have one dog and one cat who love to spend time with you There was a heater which kept us warm during the night

It was not clear the first time where the apartment was Maybe some high chairs where to sit for dinner would be nice

The location for the reason we visited for completing our open water divers' course was wonderful. The host was super friendly and helpful. You can really spend a holiday here. The only difficult part was to originally find the place. Still a 10/10. Regards. Lady Di's Walkabout.

The Hostess made Us feel so at Home. Home away from home.. Breathtaking .Warm and very accommodating...I Really enjoyed the warmth of the Cottage.

To leave so soon...wish I could stay another day

Really loved the location. It's a bit of town but right on the edge of the natural forest with a glorious sea view. A car is necessary. It's very private and has everything necessary for a comfortable stay. the host had made the effort to put in an extra bed as it is advertised as having a sleeper couch on booking.com. We were very grateful for that. The host has all the basics there- tea/coffee/ milk/salt/pepper etc. It really helps! Loved having the cat move in with us and the occasional visit from the dog.

A kitchen dustbin would be a very good idea. We didn't feel good leaving the garbage on the counter. We arrived at night and found it difficult to see house numbers and driveway access.

Location - just up from boulders

Comfortable accommodation Quiet area Well equipped unit Great host Safe parking Safe area

Beautiful garden location with amazing sea view. Great accommodation with everything you need including the occasional visit of the very friendly cat and dog! Gareth and Jean are lovely hosts with lots of local information of places to visit.

Having to leave !

Great location and quiet

We loved EVERYTHING about our stay at Froggy Farm Self Catering. The reviews were good, so our expectations were high, but Gareth’s amazing hospitality, and this beautiful, peaceful, well appointed cottage still blew us away. We felt welcomed and well cared for from the moment we arrived, the space was sparkling clean and is stylishly decorated. The kitchen is basic but has all the essentials to enjoy a morning coffee on site or whip up a quick brekkie if you stop for groceries. Ima, the resident kitty kept us company as we sat on the lovely ocean view deck enjoying a glass of wine at the end of our days of adventuring. Gareth gave us great tips on where to eat and what to check out in the area. If you’re staying in Simon’s Town, there’s no better spot!

Beautiful apartment with sea view. Clean and neat. We had a very pleasant stay.

My stay was very short to dislike anything.

Froggy Farm is in a lovely spot a short drive from Simonstown. We were in the area unexpectedly so didn't really have chance to use the facilities here, but the room was perfect - clean/comfortable and well equipped.

Nothing. Everything was good.

Nice and quiet away from the rush. Beautiful view and lots of birds. Very friendly hosts. We will definately come back.

views , peaceful , great hosts .

all great .

Gareth was a great host. Very friendly. The apartment is spacious and the facilities were good. It was nice to say hello to their friendly dog and cat.

The accomodation was well equiped and felt lovely to be in. It had a very nice cottage feel to it.

Everything was great! Accommodation, location, friendly owner, absolutely everything!

Beautiful location and views and very safe.

none

Fantastic view and great experience. Friendly and welcoming host.

Absolutely nothing.

garden, location, view, Ima cat

The location was great exactly where we wanted to be with the added bonus being the property backed onto a large field/forest a really gorgeous and peaceful environment enabling easy walking access to the main road. The host Gareth - was always ready to assist going above and beyond any expectations. The hosts have a lovely woman working for them, Sookie (sp) who was also always willing to assist and provide advice if required. They have a very friendly cat, Ima, who would visit us for long periods of time she was very sociable and welcome. We managed to see 2 adult porcupines one evening in the garden, although the sighting was fleeting it was incredible as both my husband and I had not seen one before - they are really pretty large. A real bonus was the availability of wifi during the current SA crisis of Loadshedding - it really made those times less bleak and we were able to use the time more constructively. All in all we loved our stay and we look forward to one day re-visiting the property for another.

How quiet and serene it was. The place is immaculate and so cosy. I'll definitely stay there again. The view is amazing 😍

Super helpful and kind owner. He allowed us to stay later than the normal checkout time, provided a cot for our baby and provided lots of helpful suggestions. The internet also worked in load shedding.

The owner Gareth was very friendly, met us on arrival, gave us good advice about a good local beach and restaurants. The room was very nice and clean with all mod cons and comfortable bed. We were lucky enough to see a troop of baboons in the garden plus porcupine down the road when we got back after dinner!

Very well equipped. Lovely setting.

Very confortable flat, big garden and nice personal. And the cat... The best friend. Amazing and lovely.

Spacious, clean apartment that has everything you need. The garden is beautiful and offers great ocean views. Lots of wildlife around and nice outdoor seating areas. Wifi is good, and continues to work well even during load shedding. Location is excellent, in a quiet and safe neighbourhood but with the center of Simons Town and the penguin beach just a few minutes away by car. A short walk brings you to top notch snorkeling at Windmill Beach, and Cape point national park is only a 15 min drive away. Gareth is a great host, super friendly, accessible and happy to share local knowledge.

I liked the peace and beautiful views...was a magnificent place pet friendly and child friendly the owner was very helpful and nice... Perfect place to relax and enjoy the near by beaches and have a peaceful rest at froggy farms just lovely.

Host was very friendly and helpful. And location was amazing. Loved that place.

Little bit hard to get taxi in simon's town after 5 pm. But host helped us in that also.
