“The Bee’s Knees” – to be excellent or of an extremely high standard

Designed by multi-award winning architect Henry Paine, this contemporary timber house set in amongst pristine fynbos directly on the cliff edge, is so close to the sea you feel you are on a boat. The dramatic position with waves crashing on the rocks below, headlands stretching uninterrupted into the distance and endless sea views is breathtaking.

“The Bee’s Knees” sleeps four in two bedrooms en-suite, both with private decks and spectacular ocean views. Watch whales from the double showers or romantic bath big enough for two.

Slide open the glass doors from the living room to the sea facing deck and enjoy endless sea views. Pods of dolphin pass by daily and whales in season come so close you can hear them breathe. The dining room leads onto the fynbos deck with flowers of pink, lavender, yellow and orange. If you are lucky, you might see a mongoose might come visiting or a you might glimpse a bushbuck passing by.

The house is fully equipped with quality furnishings and appliances.  with crisp pure cotton linen – everything you need to make you feel pampered and comfortable. A wood burning fire place heats up the living rooms on chilly days.

The spaces have been created for peace, reflection and conversation. Play games, bird watch, do a puzzle, read or simply gaze at the view – there is no television to spoil the atmosphere.
