Helderberg Guesthouse is situated on the mountainslopes of Gordon's Bay, which is 60km from Cape Town CBD. The guesthouse is slightly more than 2km from the beach, though it has a view on False Bay, the city and mountains. I would rate it as 3-star.
I operate the guesthouse as an additional activity, I still have a day-time office job.
Gordons Bay is a coastal town in the picturesque Cape, situated between mountains, the ocean and winelands.
