A flattering article about Cape Town was published in the Sunday Mail<\/strong> in Scotland yesterday, with the headline “Thanks to its Low Prices and Cool Vibes, I’ve found my Favourite City”.<\/p>\n

Journalist Mickey McMonagle visited Cape Town in January, and sings the praises of our beautiful city.\u00a0 He paid for his own accommodation, and selected Whale Cottage Camps Bay and the Twelve Apostles Hotel for his accommodation, both of which were highly praised:\u00a0\u00a0 “If you want to live well on the cheap, Whale Cottage is ideal.\u00a0\u00a0 Our room had a private balcony overlooking the sea, there’s a pool and honesty bar and everything is clean, fresh and friendly – plus it’s a five-minute walk to Camps Bay. We were reluctant to leave. ”\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Twelve Apostles Hotel was praised for its excellent service, its rooms, its setting and facilities offered, even though “it’s not cheap but it is worth every penny”.<\/p>\n

The article praises Cape Town for its “staggering setting, with a backdrop of mountains overlooking amazing little bays”.\u00a0\u00a0 It says that there is so much to do that one would “barely scratch the surface in a month”.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 It recommends visiting Boulder’s Beach, World of Birds, the V & A Waterfront, the Aquarium, the cable car ride up Table Mountain, Camps Bay for its night-time entertainment,\u00a0 eating at\u00a0the\u00a0Codfather restaurant in Camps Bay, wine tasting in Constantia, and the children-friendly facilities in Cape Town.<\/p>\n

The journalist ends his article: “All in all, Cape Town is my new favourite city, and I’ve already\u00a0 planned the first of many return trips.”!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
