Cottages with Mountain Views

Houtkapperspoort Mountain Cottages offer holiday homes with a kitchenette, private bathroom, and dining area. Each cottage includes air-conditioning, a balcony, streaming services, a washing machine, and tiled floors. Units vary: some have a fireplace, others a bathtub in the bedroom. Guests highlight the comfortable beds and clean spaces. Note that amenities differ by owner, so check your unit for features like a hairdryer or gas backup during load shedding.

Kitchen

Each cottage has a fully equipped kitchen for self-catering, with cooking pots, utensils, and a stove. Some units include a BBQ (braai) facility, but bring your own wood or charcoal. There is no onsite restaurant; guests shop at nearby Constantia village (10 minutes by car) or order grocery deliveries to the cottage.

Leisure

The property features an outdoor swimming pool with a view, open all year, with a shallow end and sun loungers. There is a tennis court with equipment available. Guests enjoy hiking trails right behind the estate, a children's playground, and the garden where springboks roam freely. The pool area has a sunbird feeder.

Location

The cottages are 25 km from Cape Town International Airport, a 5-minute drive from Hout Bay and Constantia. Nearby attractions include World of Birds (5 km) and Table Mountain (23 km). Hiking trails start at Constantia Nek. The Red Bus tour stop is within walking distance. Guests find the location ideal for exploring the Cape Peninsula.

“The location offers a serene mountain escape with truly stunning views, conveniently situated for exploring Constantia's wine routes and Cape Town's attractions. Cottages are thoughtfully appointed for comfort, making them feel warm and inviting, especially during cooler months. The natural setting, complete with roaming wildlife, adds a distinctive charm to the tranquil grounds.”
