The Potting Shed Guest House

Perched in seaside Hermanus, a short drive from Whale Coast Mall and steps from the Cliff Path and town centre. Close to Fernkloof Nature Reserve, Whalehaven Winery and Hermanus Beach — an easy base for whale-watching, wine estates and coastal walks.

This quaint, owner-managed guest house has just six individually decorated rooms with hand-painted interiors by a local artist. Room highlights range from deluxe rooms with private patios, fridges and espresso machines to a studio with a deck and mountain view; all rooms include en-suite facilities, DSTV, tea/coffee and daily housekeeping.

Chill by the floodlit outdoor pool with sun loungers and BBQs, or unwind on the terrace and in the cosy guest lounge with piano and DSTV. Practical touches include a beach shuttle (surcharge), airport transfer on request, private courtyard parking and a tour desk to book local activities.

Complimentary Wi‑Fi across the property keeps you connected. Additional conveniences include a safe-deposit box at the front desk, microwave and refrigerator in a common area, plus free self-parking.

A complimentary full breakfast is served daily (7:30–9:00) and limited room service is available. Fire up the guest BBQ, or wander into town for fresh seafood and local wines from nearby estates.
