Extra spacious

Guests love this home’s spaciousness for a comfortable stay.
Nestled in nature, you will be greated by the sun rise views of the birds on the lake, sometimes flamingos, and you will have views of the sunset.

Imhoff's Gift is a security estate we have guards 24/7, a big wall with cameras. Nieghbours are often seen walking on the trails by the lakes or to the beach, and kids love riding the bikes on the nieghbourhood roads (drive slow) and to the park.

The space
L'Escapade or 'The escape" in French is the inspiration for the theme of this house.

We have tried to keep the space simple yet functional, with a light and vibrant feel. Perfect for a family get away.

Afew things to note:
-The pool has a strong cover to keep little ones safe, it is relatively easy to uncover.
-We have a cot with bedding, we just ask that you request it before you arrrive so that we can set it up.
-If you are an avid surfer, I have a few boards and wetsuits in the garage that can be used, on request.

Guest access
The whole house except two cupboards (where we kept some boring cleaning stuff and extra bedding). I also keep the garage 'attic' to myself.

Where you’ll be

Cape Town, Western Cape, South Africa

Imhoff's Gift is a beautiful and estate boasting two lakes, a kids play ground, and a few trails (which can lead to the beach and the farm village).

The estate is very secure, nieghbours let their kids roam the nieghbourhood and the park.

The farm village up the road has plenty to offer; a small farm where kids can touch farm animals, an organic locally sourced grocery store, sushi resturant, boutique icecream stop, craft beer bar, a resturant with a stunning view of longbeach.

On along with our usual wildlife we have baboons on occasion, they are generally quite harmless, but do try to keep doors and windows closed when they are around.

Traveling is a large part of my life, I'm often on the move, which is why I love this app. I really enjoy being able to find a small home away from home.
