Just fantastic. Hermanus is a beautiful little place anyhow but with a stay at “On the Cliff” the trip was topped off perfectly. I’ve never had such an extensive breakfast in all of my travels which really kick started my day. Thank you.

We were recommended this lovely guest house by people who had stayed a few months before we were looking for somewhere to stay. Charmaine gave us great advise when we were looking to book. Stunning location on a quiet road overlooking the ocean. Most comfortable bed ever, caused us being late for breakfast as we slept better than ever. Lucky was wonderful ensuring we had everything we needed. Breakfast will set you up for the full day, wonderful home made delicious food. Easy walks along the cliff paths opposite the house especially when you encounter the Dassies. Have recommended to others we met on our tour of South Africa. Sue & Eric

Perfectly situated with beautiful views of the ocean and cliffs. You can start your cliff walk just across the road or sit on a bench and watch the whales. The town centre is within walking distance. The breakfast is fantastic with everything you could gwant. The staff are friendly and your host will make you feel at home.
