2 minutes drive to South Africa's ?Mother City?, dating back to April 1652, markets, shops, restaurants, pubs, museums, the Castle and the famous Company Gardens.
5 minutes drive to the bustling V & A Waterfront.
10 minutes drive to majestic Table Mountain.

Coming home by foot is rather tiring as it's uphill all the way back.
We do not advise walking at night and taxis are inexpensive and easily available.

There are many fine restaurants in the area - we can gladly book a variety of restaurants for our guests.

We will gladly help organize our guests' stay in our beautiful City and are able to recommend all the best options of what to see and where to go.
