No loadshedding due to our large solar panel/ inverter/battery system, all appliances-including jacuzzi- run during loadshedding. The apartment is set in a 24-hour manned-security estate in a beautiful forest setting. The apartment adjoins the main house however guests have a private entrance and separate driveway. The heated pool means swimming can be enjoyed from early Spring to late Autumn with the jacuzzi available all year round.
I have had the best time meeting wonderful individuals from all over the world. I love sharing this special part of SA with my guests.
Enjoy the serenity of being in a forest environment in the middle of the city. Enjoy regular visits from peacocks, guinea fowl, Egyptian geese and Hadedas in the garden. Completely secure estate with easy access to Chapman's Peak, Hout Bay Beach, World of Birds, Camps Bay, Constantia Wine Route and Cape Town City Centre. Hout Bay is ideally located to explore Cape Town's biggest attractions and boasts many great restaurants and quaint shops. There are 4 good supermarkets within a 5 minute drive and Hout Bay Beach is also only 5 minutes away by car.
