About the home

Recommended by Wallpaper City Guide as one of the best places to stay in Cape Town, Lion’s View has established itself as the ultimate Camps Bay retreat.

Designed by leading South African architect Greg Wright this luxurious villa perfectly complements its magnificent setting overlooking famous Camp’s Bay beach, Lion’s Head and the Twelve Apostles. The property is conceptualized around clean, flowing lines, a palette of soothing colours, minimalist furnishings and open airy spaces. It’s innovative, modern architecture and stylish interiors have received international recognition and it continues to feature in design magazines, fashion shoots and TV commercials.

Situated in a tranquil tree-lined street Lion’s View is a five-minute stroll from Camps Bay beach with its signature palm-fringed waterfront and array of trendy café’s, bars and restaurants. A 10-minute drive takes you into Cape Town’s vibrant city centre and its acclaimed V&A Waterfront. At Lion’s View you’re within easy reach of it all.

ACCOMMODATION

Lion’s View is divided into two sections; the five bedroom Main House and the two bedroom Penthouse Apartment. Guests can opt for either or combine them to form an ultra luxurious seven-bedroom villa.

Guests are ensured total comfort and luxury. A housekeeper is always on hand to tend to domestic needs. A private chef can be arranged on request. There’s under-floor heating and air-conditioning in selected areas. As you’d expect from a five-star property the house has all the mod-cons including; iPod doc, hi-fi, telephone, satellite TV, DVD players and complementary WiFi internet.

The Main House

The Main House on the ground floor comprises five double en-suite bedrooms, a spacious lounge, a dining room and a fully equipped open-plan kitchen. The entrance is via a footbridge that traverses the Japanese koi pond. Furniture and fixtures by top designers such as Philippe Starck line the house adding a fine touch of elegance. The master bedroom, with its raised spa bath behind the bed and wall-to-wall view of the pool and beach beyond, comes with a telescope. Surrounded by the large patio and beautifully manicured garden is a seductive infinity-edged swimming pool that overlooks the Atlantic Ocean and Lions Head.

The Penthouse apartment

Upstairs is the stylish Penthouse Apartment. Featuring it’s own separate entrance, two spacious double bedrooms, two luxurious bathrooms, a lounge and fully equipped open-plan kitchen. The unique design of the roof makes the most of the majestic mountain views. The balcony with its heated plunge pool is the ideal place to enjoy the sun, panoramic views and the soothing sound of the sea.

The Western Cape region

If the Western Cape were a woman, she would turn heads. As a province of South Africa, the Western Cape draws millions of visitors each year to a seemingly small area if compared with other provinces in South Africa, but one that is so beautiful that it can’t help the distinct attention it draws.

Affixed to the tip of Africa as it is, the Western Cape lies bordered by two oceans - the warmer Indian Ocean to the south and the cold Atlantic Ocean to the west - which goes a long way to clarify its allure.
The wild Cape Agulhas coast, the extraordinary magnificence of the Garden Route, the sparse, sweeping stretches of sand, punctuated only by rocky outcrops and fishing villages, of the West Coast notwithstanding, it is not the coastline alone that draws the crowds. The constant reassuring presence of immense peaks form the backdrop to a land so lovely in parts that the emerald lakes and indigenous forests of the Wilderness, the sun-drenched vineyards of the CAPE WINELANDS, the magnificent passes to reach the interior and the wide, windswept arid spaces of the Klein Karoo seem part of a fantasy landscape that often defies description.

The Cape Town / Camps Bay area

Cape Town

The heart of the Western Cape is without doubt the city of Cape Town. With a distinct flavour of its own, affected in no small part by the cultural melting pot of Indonesian, French, Dutch, British and German settlers who each indelibly stamped their mark upon the foundations of the city, Cape Town is one of the most beautiful cities in the world today.

The inner city is an eclectic mix of architectural styles that combine the past with the present in a mishmash of high-rise office blocks, Edwardian and Victorian buildings and narrow, cobblestone streets that give rise to fine examples of Cape Dutch design. It is also home to a blend of corporate and independent business that lends it a striking aliveness, particularly at lunch time when the streets spill over with a combination of lunch time diners and consequent entertainers and market stalls.

Constantly engulfed by the vast maternal presence of Table Mountain, the inner city combines with an effortless choice of white sandy beaches (CAMPSBAY BEACH), must-visits like Robben Island, Cape Point and the Victoria & Alfred Waterfront, magnificent green areas with rivers, vleis and dams, a floral kingdom that is wholly unique to the Cape and an effortlessly warm climate that makes the Western Cape a logical destination throughout the year.

Our climate is mediterenean. Summer from November till March will be mostly sunny with temperatures around 25 degrees, winters are wetter and less predictable but the you can still enjoy lovely days of about 20 degrees.
