There is so much to say about this calm and beautifully decorated home. It is perfectly situated for adventures on the Cape Town Peninsula, close to Simonstown, Kalk Bay, Noordhoek etc etc. The Glencairn beach is a short walk across the road, and has lovely swimming conditions and spectacular views. I was able to do all my shopping for food and alcohol - also a short walk from the house. The house, apart from being creatively furnished, has all the amenities one would need, including a very efficient wood stove to heat it up on a winter’s eve. Probably the highlight was the hosting of Penelope - clearly a superhost! She was welcoming, warm and a fountain of local knowledge. The house was spotless, and I was really surprised by the gifts of wine, fruit, milk, juice and fresh flowers. The hostess with the mostess!
I can’t wait to return!
