Sehr gastfreundliche, interessierte und gesellige Gastgeber Sehr üppiges, selbstgemachtes, gesundes und reichhaltiges Frühstück Bombastische Lage mit eigenem Strandzugang Ich war der einzige Gast und durfte mich jederzeit an Kaffee und Wein bedienen.

Man kann nicht mit Kreditkarte bezahlen Die Online Bezahlung hat bei mir leider zusätzliche Gebühren verursacht. Die zahlreichen Annehmlichkeiten hier haben das aber alles wieder wettgemacht 😉

What a gem! Musselcracker B&B is situated in the most unique setting not too far a drive from Cape Town. We enjoyed the beautiful environment, including a comfortable space with seaside interior decor, warm hospitality, a private beach, access to outdoor activities and marine life all within reach of the establishment.
