High Gables is situated on the mountainside overlooking the Naval Harbour, the Yacht Basin and False Bay. We are within walking distance to the historical village of Simon's Town, which boasts many quaint buildings and museums and excellent restaurants. We are 2kms from the famous Boulders Penguin Colony and 20 minutes drive to the Cape Point Nature Reserve.
There are a number of beautiful swimming beaches in the immediate area. We are ±45 minutes drive from Capetown and ±1 hour from the Stellenbosch and Franchoek wine farms. Why not make High Gables your base to tour the peninsula and enjoy quiet tranquil evenings away from the noise of the city.
