Needing a reboot and to get right away from everything I booked myself into The Beach House for a few days and what a treat it was. It did not dissappoint. The house is in immaculate condition and as clean as a pin.It faces north so is filled with winter sunshine and I could certainly see why this time of the year is known as "The secret season". The views were spectacular looking down over the ocean, beach and mountains and it was a five minute walk down to the most beautiful beach. Very friendly and hands on manager Annie was there to welcome me and give advice and info on the area which was hugely helpful. Certainly not long enough but I will certainly be back. Cannot recommend the house highly enough. Thanks Annie and her team.

We stayed here for a week in early April 2015. The view from the house was amazing and although you are in a very exclusive area of Cape Town, the orientation of the house ensures privacy and made you feel as though the view was all your own to enjoy. The interior of the house is finished to an exceptionally high standard with the outstanding feature being the Sun Room and the main living area which can be opened up fully onto the outside decking so that you have a massive open air space to take in the sun and scenery. Annie and Julia were great and ensured that our break was kept stress free and the house maintained in tip top condition. It then became an easy option to spend the day challenging yourself swimming against the jet flow in the pool or simply see how many dolphins you could see leaping in the bay (apparently the whales are more common September to November) whilst indulging in something long, cold and refreshing from the comfort of the loungers. For entertainment and activities, it's just a short walk down to the beach and Hout Bay and Camps Bay are in easy striking distance for restaurants and people watching. Cape Town itself is a short drive if you feel the need to tick the touristy things off your to-do list. The house and surrounding area was a great experience, treat yourself you won't be disappointed, but please not on the dates I next want to visit !

We stayed in the house during September, when the weather can always be a bit mixed, but still had a good holiday. This was our first visit since the redevelopment - what an incredible change from the previous single level house. The house overlooks the Llandudno beach, which is popular with surfers, and up to the mountains. While the views from ground level have always been terrific those from the bedrooms on the first floor, with their huge picture windows, are amazing. The present good exchange rates made the house excellent value. We particularly liked the garden and the bird life. It was a shame that Smudge, one of Annie's cats, can't get up to the house any more from her flat below! Nothing was too much trouble for Annie, who looks after the house and solves any problems, or Julia, who does everything to keep the house neat and tidy. We look forward to returning next year to this top quality accommodation.
