Vineyard to Mountain views, pool & gate onto Groot Constantia Wine farm

Thank you for your wonderful review. We’re so pleased that you enjoyed your stay at Sunbird Cottage. The direct access to the vineyards is one of our favourite features too, and we’re delighted that you were able to make the most of exploring Constantia’s beautiful wine estates. It’s also lovely to hear that you enjoyed the gardens and pool area – our team works hard to keep them looking their best throughout the year. We’re especially pleased that you appreciated the character of the cottage. We love preserving its original charm while ensuring guests have all the comforts needed for a relaxing stay. Thank you for choosing Little Vines, and we’d be delighted to welcome you back for another visit in the future. Warm regards, Lucy & James

Thank you for your feedback, Diane. We’re pleased you enjoyed the beautiful setting, gardens and crystal clear pool, as well as the direct access into the vineyards, which many of our guests highly value and repeatedly come back to stay year after year to enjoy. We are surprised by the tone and detail of your review. During your stay, all concerns raised were discussed at length as you went through your 'list' and addressed promptly, including adjustments to the hot water temperature to suit your personal temperature requirements and resolving the drainage issues. We are always responsive and attentive to guest needs in real time. Some of the points mentioned relate to very minor or subjective details and it is disappointing that the focus appears to have been on actively seeking out faults rather than enjoying the overall beauty, experience and surroundings. Cape Town does not have central heating infrastructure as standard - and we do advise guests who are sensitive to cooler evenings to put a jumper on, or consider visiting during the warmer summer months rather than at the start of winter. We take great pride in maintaining our cottages and consistently receive excellent reviews across all platforms for cleanliness, comfort and hospitality. We do not feel this review fairly reflects the standard we provide or the experience of the vast majority of our guests. We wish you well in your future travels in meeting all of the standards you require.

Thank you for your kind review. We’re delighted that you enjoyed the beautiful setting of Little Vines. We feel very fortunate to be surrounded by vineyards, mountains and gardens, and we’re so pleased that you appreciated the location. We hope to welcome you back again soon. Warm regards, Lucy & James
