SHELL COTTAGE:Camps Bay beachfront is very close, less than a 200m stroll from the front door down a palm lined walkway. Despite being so close to the buzz, the cottage suffers no noise due to its secluded panhandle location off The Drive, a quiet residential road.From the moment you come in through the front gate and meander along the boardwalks into the large, lush and shady garden, surrounded by views of the Twelve Apostles and Lions Head mountains, you feel as though you have entered a haven. The property is very different from many of the ultra modern steel, glass and concrete homes on the Atlantic Seaboard and it offers a lovely sense of space and peace.The lounge opens up onto the generous patio and pool deck, which overlooks the garden.Each of the bedrooms is unique and stylish designed and all open either onto the garden or onto the private courtyards. Each of the en suite bathrooms has its own unique theme, with an emphasis on nature - sand textures, pebbles, mother -of - pearl, driftwood. This home has been created with a lot of care and attention to detail, giving it real soul.This house is equipped to the highest standards and it offers the international traveller all that he or she might want in a self catering property, including wireless internet access and satellite television. The local tennis courts and play park are across the road, and within a few minutes walk you have access to in excess of 25 restaurants, a number of bars, a library, shops and all the other amenities that Camps Bay offers.Shell Cottage is a holiday house that appeals to all ages.
