“The location was perfect, located right on the st Blaize trail which was breathtaking. The apartment was spacious and had everything we could possibly need. The indoor braai area was great also as we didn’t have great weather.”

“The rooms were all very well laid out, spacious and comfortable. We didn't get to use the indoor braai this time, but we're definitely visiting again. The gate is less than 100m from a St Blaize trail entrance. It was magical seeing the sunrise...”

Shepherds Rest is a fully renovated granny flat, at the back of another property, with all the luxuries needed for a relaxing getaway at the sea. In the living room, you can sit in the rocking chair overlooking the beautiful Indian Ocean (sometimes even spot some whales or dolphins).
Love life, meeting new people and adore animals! Live by the motto: Choose Life! You can reach me at any time via Whats App or just give me a call. I love helping in any way I can.
It is a tranquil neighbourhood, and it doesn't seem as if you are in town because of the open space on one side and the uninterrupted sea view in front of you. The tranquillity is part of the absolute blessing of living here, and it is truly a place of rest. A huge bonus is the fact that it is en route to the beautiful St Blaize Hiking Trail. If you don't have transport, private taxis are available to take you to town or the airport. If you want to spend time in nature, you can enter the St Blaize hiking trail within a few steps by foot.
