About this property
Companion House - in a Secure Estate & an Incredible Setting
The perfect place for your family holiday. We have great bay views from the living and entertainment area across the bay to Chapmans Peak, and stunning mountain views from all the bedrooms. We are a South African/German couple with 2 kids, our home is a peaceful, private, secure home in a private estate in the heart of Hout Bay. It's a 5 minute drive to/from one of the Cape's best beaches, Llandudno Beach. We are 2 minutes from shops and restaurants and the Constantia wine route is just 10 minutes away.
Companion House is a secure home in Hout Bay, our house has three bedrooms, 2 with King beds, 1 Double. The main Bedroom is en-suite (shower only) , the 2 alternate bedrooms share a bathroom (shower only). There's also an additional guest toilet. There's an open plan Bar, Lounge, Dining, Kitchen area, separate TV lounge, and plenty of garden for the kids to play in. There are 2 separate outside entertainment areas and a large swimming pool. (The pool is NOT covered so the home is not suited for young kids who cannot swim. Our parents stay in a private apartment on the property above the garage, they are very happy to assist if you need any help or advice during your stay in Cape Town. We also have back up power, so the electricity issues in South Africa should hopefully not affect you all that much.
One of our guests unfortunately missed the deadline to submit a review, so I've added their feedback here.
REVIEW OF COMPANION HOUSE
This was our first trip to Africa and we couldn't have landed in a better place. Wayne and Gaby's house is paradise. The spacious living area and bedrooms, the beautiful view of the mountains from the porch, and the pool in the back with fabulous landscaping made us feel so wonderful. The hosts couldn't have been more helpful and solicitous. Any question we had was answered immediately and with such care. If we come back to Cape Town we would definitely want to stay Also we will recommend the house to anyone traveling to South Africa.
