Escape to your own private hideaway on the fairways of the Fairview Golf Estate in Gordon's Bay — where the Helderberg mountains meet the ocean air of False Bay. This fully equipped two-bedroom apartment sleeps up to four guests and comes with everything you need to completely switch off: a private balcony with garden and mountain views, a BBQ/braai area, full kitchen, Netflix, fast WiFi (60 Mbps), and a washing machine. Whether you're here for golf, wine country, beach days, or simply to do absolutely nothing — this is your base. The estate itself is secure and beautifully maintained, with a 9-hole golf course (which plays as 18) literally outside your door. Bikini Beach is 5 minutes away. The Helderberg wine farms are 20 minutes. Cape Town CBD is 40 minutes. Your host Thando speaks English, Xhosa, and Zulu, and has a reputation for going the extra mile — expect a warm welcome and someone who's just a call away whenever you need anything. Perfect for: couples, small families, golf weekends, wine-country escapes, remote workers who actually want to enjoy where they're working from.

I like hiking or going to the beach. Actually anything out doors when I'm not on the computer busy breaking working code. I enjoy a nice novel from time to time even though I've been reading more self help books of late. I'm currently reading "Breaking the habit of being yourself"
