Harbour View turned out to be even more spectacular than we had expected. We received an exceptionally warm welcome from Trish and Rob (including extras like a bottle of wine, fresh fruit and rusks) and they remained helpful and attentive throughout our stay. For example, when they heard that we were headed for Kirstenbosch for a late afternoon outdoor conference, Trish left two rugs by the car for us to take along to sit on. The accommodation itself is spacious and lavishly decorated with an intriguing mix of art work, sculpture and curious objects. If we ever grew tired of watching the enchanting blue expanse of False Bay from the balcony (and the swimmers in the Dalebrook tidal pool), there were books and board games in abundance as well as DSTV and excellent WiFi. The beds were made up with some of the most luxurious linens we had ever experienced. There is not a full kitchen, but with Kalk Bay's wonderful restaurants to choose from just a short walk down the hill to the harbour, we never expected to cook (there were, however, braai facilities available if we had chosen to use them). In short, a memorable experience in just about every way!
