Lion's View

Camps Bay, Cape Town, South Africa

Seriously stylish holiday home above trendy Camps Bay, with separate penthouse apartment and views to die for (sleeps 4-14)

Situated in a tranquil leafy street in Cape Town's exclusive and trendy neighbourhood of Camps Bay, Lion’s View faces the Atlantic Ocean and is backed by the peaks of the Twelve Apostles. Conceived by a leading South African architect, its innovative, modern architecture and designer furnishings have featured in many a glossy design magazine, fashion shoot and TV commercial.

The spacious and luxurious house can be separated into two independent sections if required: the main house has 5 double bedrooms; the penthouse 2 doubles. A lush and immaculate garden surrounds the rim-flow pool and patios. Inside, all is cool, light and airy with the cleanest of lines - it’s white from top to bottom. There’s a daily housekeeper and meals can be arranged, but this is essentially a self-catering property. With its state-of-the-art kitchen, cooking is a joy. Ideal for a group of friends, family parties, photo-shoot or small business group seeking inspiration.

Highs

  • Awesome views of Lion’s Head Mountain and the ocean
  • Award-winning infinity pool, cool interiors and lots of gadgets including WiFi, satellite TV and DVD players
  • A stroll away from the beautiful beach, trendy restaurants and bars of Camps Bay, and just a 10 minute drive to Cape Town’s vibrant centre

Lows

  • Minimalist interiors might not cater to all tastes
  • All this designer chic doesn't come cheap
  • Penthouse does not have use of the big pool unless rented in conjunction with the main house

Outside there's a lush patio, barbecue and pool with jaw-dropping views of Lion's Head Mountain...
