This stunning and secluded Dutch gabled property is nestled under the lee of Table Mountain in the leafy and sought-after neighbourhood of Bishopscourt, just a few minutes’ drive from Kirstenbosch Gardens with its plethora of hiking trails, the legendary pubs and restaurants (and the cricket and rugby) in Newlands and the ample shops in Claremont, with good access onto Edinburgh Drive and Rhodes Drive putting central Cape Town, the Waterfront, the University, the excellent Constantia wineries, the Camps Bay sunsets, the dam at Silvermine and the spectacular False Bay and Atlantic seaboard beaches all within easy reach. Darleen was a wonderful, thoughtful and kind host with amazing attention to detail – she personally greeted us on arrival with essentials and wine, kept us informed, and did everything possible to ensure our stay was comfortable. The cottage itself flawlessly laid out with its own private entrance which meant that we could come and go as we pleased without disturbing anyone in the main house. It was spotlessly clean, stylishly and tastefully furnished, and offered every amenity that we could possibly have wished for – including its own private patio for unlimited braaing, and access to the swimming pool and the beautiful grounds of the main house. We particularly enjoyed meeting Daleen's excellent dogs and cats! Security was excellent, and at all times we felt relaxed and completely safe. The property has its own borehole so water supply is not an issue. We also used Uber with ease whenever we did not wish to drive. Our stay was unforgettable and we highly recommend this property.
