Glenda’s place is a beautiful, safe and relaxing piece of luxury just outside of central Cape Town. It was the perfect place to spend our first few nights and get settled in the city. The place itself is absolutely gorgeous and makes you feel surrounded by nature without the travel. The apartment is spacious and clean with an extremely comfortable bed. The kitchen area is lovely and the skylight shower adds an extra special touch to the place. The art studio and outside spaces are stunning, and there are so many little touches that fill the place with character.
Glenda and her husband were incredibly welcoming from the start, helping us with our bags and giving us great recommendations of things to do and eat. They were very flexible with timing and provided a delicious breakfast each morning (especially the scrambled eggs) and were happy for us to leave our bags while we watched the rugby. We also absolutely loved their two cats, who came in a few times for a cuddle and a fuss.
The whole area has amazing food and friendly people, we spent a fair amount of time in the foresters arms at the top of the road, which has delicious and very reasonably priced food. The apartment is also only a 20-25 minute easy drive to the V&A waterfront and has the most beautiful mountain view from the garden.
We have fallen in love with Cape Town and Glenda’s apartment has added to that, we are planning on returning in the near future!
