From the owner

It is a garden cottage situated 300 metres (4 minute walk) from the beach with a separate entrance and secure parking. It consists of a large open plan lounge/dining/kitchen area with wooden floors and high ceilings and a separate bedroom with two single beds and en-suite bathroom with a shower. The kitchen is fully fitted for self-catering with a fridge/freezer, oven, hob and microwave. A single bed can be put in the lounge area to make the cottage suitable for a third person. There is a shaded outdoor area with barbecue facilities.The beach, supermarket, and nearby restaurants are a short walk away, and there are plenty of options for day trips with a car that allow you to explore the countless beautiful and historic sites the Cape Peninsula has to offer.The small town of Strand is located 25 minutes from Cape Town International Airport. It boasts one of the safest and best beaches in the country, stretching 5 km with fine white sand, offering perfect conditions for swimming, sunbathing and surfing, amongst others. Stunning sunsets over beautiful views of the Cape Peninsula can be enjoyed from the beach, only a stroll away from your cottage. Strand is at the foot of the Helderberg Mountain with many wine farms right on your doorstep, and a further 15 minute drive will take you to the heart of the Cape wine-land region. During the whale season a 50 minute drive along a scenic coastal road to Hermanus will give you a view of these majestic animals.
