Description

Fisherman's Watch is situated on the mountainside of Fish Hoek overlooking the sea with magnificent views of False Bay and the Blue Flag Fish Hoek beach. It is in the beautiful South Peninsula with views of the sea and mountains, all just a short drive from Cape Town.

The property is situated on the mountainside with a view, please be aware that there are steps onto the property and down to the flat, although they are not too burdensome. There are about 34 steps in one grouping with landings and 11 in another, which may be challenging for guests with limited mobility. The property is not wheelchair friendly.

We offer our guests complete protection from load shedding with inverter and battery back-up which ensures that the lights, TV, Wi-Fi, fridge, microwave and all other appliances will carry on working even during extended power outages.

It is a modern, compact, self-catering garden flat, with a separate entrance. It includes a bedroom with a double bed, a lounge with a single sleeper couch, en-suite bathroom with a shower and a full kitchen with most facilities, such as a washing machine, hob & oven, microwave, and fridge. It has internet via WiFi and full package DStv HD satellite television, including Showmax streaming.

There is a quiet, small, sheltered entertainment area with a braai, overlooking the sea as well as the mainly indigenous garden. Well away from busy traffic, the quiet peace of the site is only broken by the sound of the waves coming up from the sea below. Access to the beach and catwalk is 10 minutes by foot, 5 mins by car.

The owners live on the premises and while they respect their guests' privacy, they do also welcome interaction with international and local visitors and can offer some unique additional experiences. One of the owners is a certified, qualified wine guide with excellent knowledge of the local wine routes. He is willing, for a small fee, to accompany you on any trip into the wine regions to make sure you get the most out of the experience. The other owner is also highly qualified in the field of tourism and geography, with extensive local knowledge that most professional tour guides would be envious.

Nearby activities include fishing, cycling, bird watching, swimming, mountain biking, and swimming.
