Soak in the sea breeze at Summer Place Bed & Breakfast

In the heart of Agulhas you will find Summer Place Bed & Breakfast. Family friendly, with an unrivaled view of the Indian Ocean, this beach house accommodation is ideally located close to restaurants, art galleries, the town’s famous lighthouse and the new icon at the southerly tip.

The town of Agulhas is a coastal village and holiday resort destination in the Western Cape, and is located just north of Cape Agulhas, the southernmost tip of the African mainland.

You can take in the view of the ocean from the lounge and garden during the hot summer days, and during the winters you can get snug and comfortable in front of the fireplace while enjoying a movie or two.

For those days when you’re in total holiday mode and want nothing more than to laze about, you can enjoy sipping a glass of wine next to the braai in the courtyard while you take in the magnificent view of the stars and the sea.

Summer Place Bed & Breakfast has rooms that offer great views

There are three different en-suite bedrooms available at Summer Place Bed & Breakfast, namely the Sea Room, which has a double bed, an en-suite bathroom with a shower and bath as well as a view of the ocean and garden.

The Nautical Room offers a queen-size bed, en-suite bathroom with a shower and the adjoining room is available upon request. The Green Room has twin beds and an en-suite bathroom with a shower.

Guests can enjoy a delicious full English breakfast in the mornings, while tea or coffee is available upon request.

The house is also available for self-catering and has a fully-equipped kitchen, satellite TV and a Jestmaster fireplace, as well as a courtyard with braai facilities. Children are welcome and pets on request.

The Overberg region is full of exciting events and activities to enjoy, from nature or beach walks, hiking trails, horse-riding, swimming, fishing, and whale watching.

Home Food and Travel advice on finding the right accommodation

So what is the right accommodation? Well more often than not, it’s your travel budget that dictates the type of accommodation that you choose.

Expensive is not always better. Our team at Home Food and Travel will tell you that they have camped in areas with limited ablutions and had a wonderful holiday. They have also spent a night in a five star hotel only to be disappointed because their expectations exceeded the experience.

The reason for your travels will also affect your choice. A business trip requires different amenities to a beach holiday.

Our articles, reviews and experiences can certainly help you make your decision.

Restaurants with a good mix of service, food and ambiance

To my mind a great restaurant offers three things – excellent service, great food and a wonderful ambiance. Of these, service is the most important.

No matter that the food is delicious and the setting delightful, poor service can ruin the occasion. However, great service combined with mediocre meal and a plane jane restaurant can still be a pleasant night out.

We’ve eaten in restaurants that are really dirty but with incredible food and couldn’t help but give a rave review. We’ve also hardly noticed what we ate because the setting was just amazing.

However, the best restaurants come with the best of service, food and ambiance.

Spas are the ultimate relaxation aid

How do you know when you have had a great spa experience? The answer, of course, is when you doze off on the treatment table.

Well that’s our theory anyway. It also doesn’t take a grand location with enormous facilities for a spa to be really good

A small, personal spa that is owner run can result in the best massage you have ever experienced. However, the grand spas in five star hotels offer unsurpassed facilities in an environment that just makes the stress in your shoulders and neck melt away before you even finish checking in.

Adventure!

You don’t have to be an adrenaline junky to enjoy an exciting experience. In fact, what are commonly termed adventure activities usually have incredibly high safety standards and unblemished safety records.

Ziplining, bungy jumping and shark cage diving are all very safe. It’s just that our mind tells us we are craaazzzzyyyy to be doing this.

On the road to great places of accommodation, restaurants, spas and adventure activities

If you’re driving, be safe and make use of all the wonderful farm stalls that populate South Africa’s open roads.

If you overhear somebody asking a lot of questions or see someone taking photos of empty bedrooms chances are it’s one of our Home Food and Travel team members.

We’re out looking or those great places of accommodation, restaurants, spas and adventure activities.

See you on the road!
