The house

Where heritage meets comfort.

A 120-year-old thatched mansion set behind a stone wall on a quiet Northcliff street — hand-carved timber doors, a wide wooden staircase, slate floors and a shaded stoep looking onto the garden.

Spacious lounges, open living areas and a self-catering kitchen. It is the kind of place you book for two nights and end up extending to five.
