Home away from Home

Cape Town and its surrounds invite to linger longer. And what better way to feel like a local than by having your own pad for the duration of your stay? We offer a choice of self-catering options in Cape Town and Hermanus.

 

If you are a young professional or a student looking for accommodation on a sharing basis, Villa Oak and the adjacent Welgelegen Studio and Garden Cottage offer a secure home close to UCT and the popular hiking trails in Newlands Forest. 

Eastcliff - Hermanus

With views over the Oliphantsberg mountains from the garden, you can truly escape ‘the madding crowd’, yet still have everything Hermanus has to offer, right on your doorstep. French doors open from the spacious living room onto the vine-covered terrace with a barbeque (braai), outdoor dining area, lawned garden and pool that offer total privacy. 

The terracotta tiled, open-plan kitchen features a large dining table with benches and is fully-equipped, including a dishwasher and washing machine. On a cooler evening, simply sink into one of the living room’s large sofas in front of the fireplace.
