The Lake House is our home away for home. Our youngest learned to walk here and our eldest gets to live life like a real boy out here in nature. Just last week he’s dad taught him to fly a kite. We rest easy, knowing the estate has 24/7 security and that our kids can ran and ride their bike without a care in the world. With a house filled with board games, a massive indoor fire place, skipping stones on the lake there no wonder we all call it our favourite place in the whole world. Cape Town’s hidden gem ❤️
