    Spacious and cozy - we stayed in the garden house next to the main house. Was an amazing way to decompress and acclimatise after a long flight! It was a rainy day and hearing the sounds of the rain, while curled up on the sofa in front of a fire...

Chambery has two beautiful private one bedroomed cottages in a stunning garden set in the heart of Cape Town! Both have inverters so no electricity outages experienced. A large inviting pool enables you to do early morning laps or just relax and sunbathe on a recliner - the best of Cape Town, garden, home and centrality!
I love gardening and have found the guests add a wonderful dimension to my already busy life.
Kenilworth is a beautiful suburb in the southern suburbs of Cape Town with Kirstenbosch Botantical Gardens, Newlands Cricket Stadium and Kenilworth Racecourse on its doorstep to name a few....... equally 15 minutes from the airport, beaches and golf courses, the metropole and Atlantic seaboard 20 minutes.
