Light, bright, spacious sunny one-bedroomed cottage set under oak trees in an established garden overlooking a pool, with a view up towards Table Mountain, which is a 2 km walk away. The convenient neighbourhood is very quiet, yet within easy walking distance of shops and restaurants. There is secure off-street parking, with your own private entrance. There are outdoor living areas and loungers for your use. The cottage is serviced by arrangement.

My husband, Neil, and I live on the property. We are available to help you with anything you may need at any time. I am a classical musician. Neil is a lawyer. We both love sport and I am actively involved in playing tennis several times a week. We have a son and a daughter in their early thirties, a tiny granddaughter, and two gorgeous golden retrievers, who are pretty well-behaved. We all love travelling, especially to Europe, and enjoy a glass of wine on the pool patio with our guests.

If you enjoy walking, there are beautiful trails along the Liesbeeck Canal up to Kirstenbosch, mountain trails in the Table Mountain conservancy, and mountain biking trails. We are close to UCT and across the canal from the Vineyard Hotel. Cavendish Square is a 10 minute walk, and Newlands Village is even closer. Here you will find coffee shops, pubs, restaurants and small convenience stores. We are a 20 minute from Newlands Cricket Ground and Kelvin Grove Club. It will take you 20 minutes by car from the airport to the cottage, and 20 minutes to beaches on the Sea Point side or the Muizenberg side.
