Barry's place is a charming, comfortable, and tastefully furnished pied de Terre right in the center of Camps Bay. It is perfectly situated within walking distance to the beach and a variety wonderful restaurants and coffee shops. The views from the apartment of both the mountains and the Camps Bay itself are stunning. We spent a week in the greater Cape Town area, and Camps Bay was by far our favorite area of Cape Town. Camps Bay is a short 15 minute ride to the center of Cape Town and the V&A Waterfront. It has all the quaintness of a small beach town, but with the close proximity to the larger city. Barry and Marion were very accommodating hosts. They welcomed us the day we arrived with tea and even let our exhausted 11-year-old son sleep off the long flight from the states on their sofa! Barry was full of helpful suggestions on places to visit, practical information re: reasonable trip timelines and how to plan a pleasant day of travel in the Cape Town area. For reference: We were traveling as a family of four with (2) pre-teen kids. The kids slept in the common area beds while my husband and I slept in the bedroom.
