This was our second time staying at the Tarragon and we loved it just as much as before. The whole family stayed for a birthday celebration, the adjoining cottages accommodated all 10 of us and worked perfectly. Mark and his team do everything to ensure a comfortable stay and this, together with the beautiful surroundings, made for another wonderful holiday. More

The Tarragon is a superb property set at the back of table mountain, overlooking picturesque Hout Bay. We spent 3 days in the Saffron & Ivy cottages in early Feb 2012 and we found this to be an ideal location from which to explore Cape Town and surrounding areas. The cottages were of a very good size with large walk-in... More

We stayed at Tarragon (Angelica) for one week in November 2011. There was plenty of space inside and out for the children to play, a lovely pool all with great views. The accommodation was clean and very welcoming. All the rooms and bathrooms were very spacious and kitchen had everything you might need. The children (aged 3&2) thought the extensive... More

We stayed at The Tarragon (Jasmine), for three days in January 2012. The accommodation was perfect, lovely gardens and pool, large bedroom and bathroom and well equipped kitchen. The views from the gardens were fabulous, and the location is ideal for visiting Cape Town and the many great places on the Cape. We would recommend the Tarragon in every respect.... More

The Tarragon offers the perfect relaxing hide-out, away from the bustle of more urban areas, yet it is only 5 minutes from restaurants and shops.Book early, as there are just 5 detached cottages. Many people like us feel the location couldnt be bettered.The views and tranquility are life-restoring , and the large family pool is a perfect sun-warmed temperature, very... More

Can't speak highly enough of The Tarragon and Mark's exceptional customer service. We stayed for 3 nights which required a room switch in the middle due to availablity....the staff were very helpful in our move and made it no effort....in fact a change of scene just added to our enjoyment and both rooms were fantastic. Great gardens and views. Well... More

We stayed in the Angelica cottage with our daughter and son-in-law. The personal space on offer is exceptional and whilst there were only 4 of us in the cottage it would more than comfortably house 6 without anyone feeling as though they were treading on each others toes. The accommodation is maintained beautifully and a lot of thought has clearly... More

We have stayed several times at the Tarragon in the last 5 years. The quality and value of the cottages is outstanding and represents far better value than one of the overpriced full facility hotels on the Atlantic Seaboard. The setting is idyllic - the website accurately reflects the accommodations, grounds and views across the valley, towards the sea. Mark... More
