The space
A beautiful open plan cottage tucked away in a quiet corner of this gorgeous village. My passion is good design and clean lines and I hope this house reflects this. It is very light and airy with comfortable furniture and all the mod cons including a Nespresso machine.
The main bedroom is comfortable and quiet. There is a double set of built in cupboards and drawers for all your clothes. Also under the stairs there are a few shelves for additional items. The en-suite shower has a great view of the sea while you shower.
The loft bedroom has a king bed and two singles and is great for a gaggle of kids or another couple.
The kitchen is fully stocked ready for you to cook up some great meals.
At the back of the house there is a small courtyard/utility room with a washing machine and dryer. You can also hang up swimming costumes, wet suits and store boogie boards here. There is beach equipment for your use.
The verandah, with its lovely day bed, and seating, overlooks the garden and is a real treat for such a small house. On warm evenings you can bbq outside and eat at the outdoor dining table or simply sip wine while you admire the magnificent mountain behind.

Guest access
A local resident, Bibi manages the property and is available to meet guests, show them around the house and attend to any emergencies.

Other things to note
The second bedroom is a loft room with a railing overlooking the living space. If you have small children please be aware that this could be dangerous if left unattended upstairs.

Where you’ll be

Cape Town, Western Cape, South Africa

Trendy little seaside village half an hour from the centre of Cape Town right on the water's edge. Lovely shops, great restaurants and dozens of swimming options from tidal pools to surfing beaches. The mountain looms over the village and is beautiful to walk in during the day. There is also surfing at Muizenberg beach and the penguins in Simonstown. There is also easy access to great wine estates in Constantia which is 20 minutes away. Full guide to the area available in the house.
