The Hout Bay Hideaway

Twenty minutes easy drive from downtown Cape Town, set amongst yellow wood, palms, wild olives, lemon trees and proteas. The Hout Bay Hideaway is a small luxury retreat, guesthouse, overlooking ocean, mountains, beach, historic fishing harbour and offering accommodating for a maximum of 9 guests.

Three spacious, carpeted suites and an apartment, with extra-large beds and cosy armchairs, many genuine antiques and original paintings, offer mountain and sea views through tall, wooden-framed windows.

All have access to the rocks and grottoes of the wild, climbing garden, vine-shaded veranda, barbecue area, solar-heated saltwater swimming pool and sundecks.

The final touch to a memorable holiday experience is a secluded, fully functional Victorian bathtub under the ferns.
