About this property
Sea Cottage - House - spectacular sea views
Sea Cottage (House) is a luxurious self catering holiday home on the mountain slope above Fish Hoek beach sleeping four in two bedrooms. The beach and sea views are spectacular with mountains in the background.
Sea Cottage is a fully renovated historical thatched house with thick stone walls and Oregon Pine floors.
The patio is enormous and is ideal for entertaining friends while enjoying the views.
It has a modern kitchen with new appliances including washing machine and dish washer.
The house is accessed from Hillside Road above, but there is also a private staircase down to the Simonstown Main Road below, for easy walking access to the beach.
The house is ideal for a seaside holiday and is within easy walking distance of the beach, shops, restaurants and transport systems.
There is excellent, safe swimming at Fish Hoek beach, plenty of options for walking and hikers may explore the Elsiespeak mountain above the house.
Others may prefer to relax on the patio, watching the activities on the beach and in the sea below. Whales are regular visitors to the bay, and there are usually plenty of sailing boats, kayaks and fishing boats about.
During summer months the local "trek" fishermen may be seen catching yellowtail in their nets from the beach.
The house may also be linked (through double doors) to an adjacent self catering apartment for larger groups. Details of this apartment are listed on the following link: https://www.homeaway.co.uk/p8423643?uni_id=4481306

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Sea Cottage. It was clean and beautiful, well stocked with everything we needed, responsive host, safe, great views and location. The funicular was a fun bonus.
An extremely well equipped cottage two houses down from the road and garage. The funicular made it easy to get groceries and luggage back and forth. Lots of seating and comfortable beds. We felt very safe there. Highly recommended.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Sea Cottage; the place is very roomy and the view and beach are great. The town itself can't compete with the stores or restaurants of Kalk Bay or Simon's Town, but they are closeby. We had a rental car during our stay, which made visiting the nearby towns and Table Mountain National Park convenient.
This house is suited perfectly for an amazing view. It was clean and comfortable.
The hosts were kind and welcoming.
The town of Fish Hoek is an easy walk and the beach is so perfectly close for walks.
We walked to the neighboring town also several times.
Perfect size for two friends travelling together. Beautiful view. Lovely neighborhood location far enough out from the city center to be quiet, but close enough to be accessible.
Magnificant view and cosy spacious cottage. Garage is a very nice feature. Slightly difficult when carrying big suitecases . The small elevator -system is not really helpfull, because doors open to inside
The week stay at this cottage was not without its drawbacks. it was well equipped and the view Fabulous. Anyone with mobility problems would find this property a challenge. Loadshedding was another frustrating experience. Mark and Sarah were attentive hosts.
Wir haben 2 wunderschöne Wochen verlebt und haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt. Der Blick von der Terrasse zum Meer ist wunderschön und war beim Frühstück ein perfekter Start in den Tag. Auch der Strand ist sehr schön. Am Abend Ist das Restaurant The Galley, direkt am Strand, sehr zu empfehlen. Ansonsten gibt es in der Umgebung viel zu erkunden und auch Kapstadt ist ja nicht weit. Wer es etwas ruhiger mag, dem dürfte der Nachbarort Kalk Bay gefallen. Alles in allem sehr erholsam.
Großartige Aussicht in einem charmanten und individuellem Haus
Vollausstattung in der Küche, große möblierte Terrasse mit speziellem Zugang zu Strand (ca. 150m), eine Standseilbahn für das Gepack und die Einkäufe - einfach wunderbar.
Wir haben 5 Nächte im Sea Cottage übernachtet. Es ist eine tolle Unterkunft mit 2 Schlafzimmern, 2 Duschbädern, einem Wohnzimmer und einer tollen Terrasse mit Meerblick. Zu Fuß ist man in 3-4 Minuten am Strand, in der Stadt gibt es einige Einkaufsläden und Cafés und auch zu den Nachbarorten ist es nicht weit. Perfekt, um die südliche Kap-Halbinsel zu erkunden und überall maximal 30-40 Minuten mit dem Auto zu benötigen.
This house was more than we could have hoped for! The view is just incredible! The house is beautiful and so warm and welcoming! I loved waking up to the breathtaking sunrises! Everything was perfect!
The house is in one word “ fantastic”.
The neigbourhood fishhook is very nice and the house is on a perfect location. Super view and close enough to beach and shops.
We had a wunderful week.
We absolutely loved this place and would go back in a heartbeat!
The check in process does have quite a few steps, and then there quite a few literal steps to get to the house, but once you are there it is so beautiful and comfortable! Had all of the amenities we could ask for.
Fantastic! Would not hesitate to stay here again. So comfortable with beautiful views and convenient to Cape activities. The hosts were super responsive.
Fantastisk utsikt från den stora terassen där man kan sitta både morgon, middag och kväll. Välutrustat kök. Trevlig möblering inomhus med soffor och bord, 2 matbord med stolar. 2 stora sovrum med sköna sängar och badrum till varje sovrum. Allt fanns vad man kan behöva. Trevligt och hjälpsamt värdpar.
Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt. Der Weg zum Strand ist kurz und der Morgenspaziergang am feinen Sandstrand war immer schön. Ein großes Erlebnis war das Einholen der Netze am Strand.
Nice and quiet house, ideal home base for day trips around the Cape peninsula. As a couple, we found the house very spacious and could easily have share with another couple.
