Just a stone's throw from restaurants, wine estates and walking trails, this charming home is perfectly placed for exploring Cape Town. Oenophiles can spend a day discovering the famous Constantia Wine Route that starts right around the corner. Outdoor adventurers can hike Table Mountain National Park, a ten-minute drive away. And, for those wanting a more laid-back holiday, there's a saltwater pool, trampoline for the kids and alfresco lounge back at home that's perfect for chilling out in the South African sunshine. With swaying palm trees and a sprawling terrace, there's no doubt that the garden at this light-filled cottage is where you'll spend most of your time. Mornings here start with a hearty breakfast around the outdoor table, and evenings end with a barbecue in the summer kitchen and a glass of pinotage as the stars come out. The breezy atmosphere continues inside, where you'll find a bright living space and a glossy kitchen well-stocked for rustling up meals. Sleek bathrooms – one even has a lush soaker tub that's ideal after a day on your feet – and stylish bedrooms round out the spaces. We think a family or group of friends would be more than happy to call this pad home.
