Area Information:Paternoster is a small, quaint and picturesque fishing village about 145km (90 minutes drive) from Cape Town and 15km north-west of Vredenburg.
A favourite weekend getaway destination for Capetonians, Paternoster is one of the oldest towns along the West Coast . It was previously known for its abundance of crayfish .Sadly crayfish is currently under threat of extinction - WWF/SASSI . Paternoster is an all year round destination famous for its traditional fisherman's architecture and endless pristine sandy white beaches. Visitors to Paternoster delight in watching whales and dolphins frolicking in the ocean (ten months of the year) and after the first winter rains fall the landscape is transformed by the millions of indigenous flowers which open and densely carpet the earth in bright bursts of colour (usually between late July and September).
For bird lovers, Paternoster is home to over 250 species of birds with seabirds (Seagulls, cormorants, sacred ibis and the Oystercatcher) using this coastline as their breeding ground.

Reviews
The room was very neat and nicely appointed. However I was disappointed at finding that the room (B&B 1) had no balcony with sea view - although the info on the site says: "There is a sea view from the enclosed balcony", but this turned out to be a small neat kitchenette with a view from the window. The continental breakfast was delivered with warm homemade bread and the location is good with short walk down to a great beach with awesome sunsets.
Great location, very comfortable and excellent views.
Very good.
Fantastic self catering apartment. We travelled with teenagers and even they enjoyed it. Fully equipped. Stunning views in a quiet area. When taking a nap on those fantastic mattresses, I realize I definitely need a new mattress at home.
We loved staying at Paters Haven. The living area was comfortable and we had wonderful fires in the evenings. The quiet and the sound of sea gulls lulled us to sleep at night, and we were within walking distance of beaches. Michael and Marlene were very friendly and informative about the area. All in all, a wonderful break away from the hustle and bustle of our daily lives.
We enjoyed our stay so much we wished we could extend it. Perfect position with a warm and homely feel.
The hospitality from Marlene and her husband is great!!
Close to renowned Reuben’s restaurant and a short walk to the beach!!
It was an absolute great stay! Thank you Marlene and her husband for the warm welcome and comfy stay. I have NO complaints. Clean, comfy, 5 min walk from beach, great people, parking on property, braai facilities and great view. Can’t thank you enough!
Very friendly, professional hosts with lots of information on the area's attractions. Room comfy & clean with everything that you may need. Lovely view from the balcony over the sea to watch the sunset. Great freshly baked bread in the mornings.
Enjoyed staying very much. Breakfast being served on a tray at the time decided. Host and hostess great to talk too gave us good hints on where to eat and what to see. Pity only one night, next time longer.
Real value for your money; will recommend any time; hospitality excellent; friendly; room and the total accommodation were clean & spotless; that breakfast was great; and will go back any time and this time for longer, Thank you.
