Pats Place

• Hermanus

Accommodation at Pat's Place in Hermanus is private, spacious and comfortable. Being one of the original Hermanus holiday homes, the rooms are light and airy with high ceilings and original parquet floors. Suzanne and Nicholas live in the house nextdoor and are always close by, but never underfoot! The lounge in Pat's Place is for the use of guests only.

You may well think that an interior designer has carefully selected the uncluttered, homely décor, the hallmark of Pat's Placce. They haven't! Each shell, painting, pebble, light fitting, book, candle, drape, tile, cushion ' you name it ' has lovingly been chosen and placed by the Clark family for your pleasure.

Most accommodation suites open onto private outside patios - the honeymoon suite has a Spa bath (jaccuzi) and the other suites an outside bath or shower. All suites have en-suite bathrooms.

The attention to detail in every part of the house is remarkable and really makes you feel at home. You'll find yourself spoiled in many little ways - spot the vivid bunch of flowers next to your bed; the luxurious, crisp white percale cotton linen on your bed; the fluffy extra large towels; the candles around your bathtub; the never ending supply of logs in the woodpile and Nicholas' favourite brand of coffee available at all times.
