The Hout Bay Hideaway - Accommodation in Hout Bay, Western Cape, South Africa

The Hout Bay Hideaway - Accommodation in Hout Bay, Western Cape is just the place to unwind after a long journey to, or around South Africa. A stylishly converted 1930s barn, it's set high on a slope above the beach and fishing harbour of Hout Bay, only a 20 minute drive from downtown Cape Town. Privacy, character and a homely atmosphere are the order of the day. The 3 suites and 2 apartments are packed with Art Deco delights, antique furnishings and European artworks. Depending on the size of your party, you can book one or more individual rooms or the entire villa (sleeps 10-12).

Bed and breakfast

2 apartments  3 suites

Grab a book, help yourself to a drink from the open bar and retreat to one of the terraces in the charming garden of yellow wood, flowering protea, lemon and wild olive trees. Or simply surrender to a hammock on the deck above the pool or the discreetly positioned outdoor bathtub for a relaxing soak. A short walk down the hill brings you to the beach. Mountain walks, horse riding, scuba diving and sea kayaking can be arranged nearby.

The privacy, serene atmosphere and impeccable furnishings make this a charming retreat. If you’re into Art Deco, you won’t find better interiors in Cape Town. Hout Bay’s shops, beach and some good restaurants are within easy walking distance. Ideal for those seeking flexible accommodation arrangements - a mix of B&B and self-catering. No restaurant on the premises, so apart from breakfast (served in your room), you'll probably have to venture out - though catering can be arranged for groups and all rooms have cooking facilities. No children under the age of 12 unless you take the whole property.
