We The Osman Family Bought Southern Light Guest House in 2015 . We Reopened Southern Light Guest House as a Fully Halaal Guest House certified by Sanha. At Southern Light we work together as a family, owners and staff alike. If you are looking for a family orientated, relaxed, quiet place in nature, but only 15 minutes from Cape Town City and don't mind kids saying Hi - we are the place for you. We hope to welcome you, From : The Osman Family
Constantia not only offers spectacular natural beauty, the much talked about Table Mountain with its 180 degree cableway which can be visited with the convenient Hop on-Hop off buses but also myriad holiday activities such as horse riding, mountain biking, golfing and hiking. Not to forget the Spas, exclusive shopping centres and some fine dining establishments which are all close by. Should you venture a little bit further from our establishment you can enjoy the many delights of Cape Town: white sandy beaches, the bustling city centres and the shopping Mecca of the Victoria & Alfred Waterfront which are only 20 minutes’ drive from the Guest House. Day trips on offer includes deep-sea fishing, winelands tours, whale watching, shark diving, rock climbing, water rafting, golfing at some of the best courses - all easily accessible from Southern Light Country House.
