The Potting Shed is an amazing guest house in Hermanus. From the moment we arrived, Doreen came out to greet us and brought us to reception where we were welcomed with iced tea. She talked us through everything we needed to know about the property and gave us a map of the town with great recommendations for places to visit and walks to do.
We stayed in Room 4 and it was incredible so spacious, with a patio area and BBQ facilities. The room and bathroom had a gorgeous indoor-outdoor feel and we even took photos for inspiration for our own home renovation. The whole room had such a relaxing atmosphere.
Breakfast the following morning was outstanding. One of us is coeliac and the range of options available was brilliant. Everything is freshly homemade and the banana muffins were straight out of the oven, honestly some of the best we’ve ever had. Annmarie (the owner) even offered to make the pancakes gluten free without hesitation. We’re still dreaming about that breakfast!
We were staying as part of our honeymoon and the breakfast table the next morning was decorated with a “Just Married” banner, white linen, love hearts and an ice bucket with Appletiser and champagne glasses, such a thoughtful touch.
When we were leaving, Annmarie met us in reception with muffins to take away for the drive, which were perfect with our coffee stop later that morning. She even shared the recipe with us.
If you’re staying in Hermanus, don’t overlook this guesthouse. The hospitality is second to none and we can’t wait to return and stay longer next time.

Very clean, excellent breakfast, comfortable bed, easy and convenient stay.
10min walk to the centre
