As we are getting closer to the wedding weekend, we are aware people need to finalise some plans, so with that in mind, here is a link for guesthouses in Stellenbosch. Stellenbosch is relatively small, so most of these guesthouses will be in close proximity to the town centre. For those of you who do not have accommodation in Cape Town with friends or family, we recommend staying in Stellenbosch for the evening of the wedding (or longer if you feel like it), as it is a way to travel back into Cape Town late at night. Please let us know if you do decide to stay over in Stellenbosch, as we are looking to arrange a taxi from the wedding reception into Stellenbosch, and it would help if we knew numbers.
We are aware that some of you might not have family to stay with, so here, here and here are links for accommodation in Cape Town, focusing on the Southern Suburbs area (where we live). The ideal areas to stay in would be Claremont, Rondebosch, Kenilworth or Newlands. These are all close to where we will be based and also not far from the city centre and attractions.
It is pretty much impossible to see Cape Town without a car, as it is quite spread out and public transport is not great . There are several car hire companies at the airport, including international companies like Avis and Hertz so you can sort that out on arrival or beforehand.
We'd love to know when everyone is planning on arriving and departing so we can try to organised some gatherings besides the wedding, and spend some time with you all. So if you could drop us an email letting us know that would be great. See you all soon!
