The Oystercatcher

 
 

Description

This self catering beach house is perched on the magnificent cliffs of De Kelders in the shark diving and whale watching hub of Gansbaai. De Kelders is renowned for some of the best land based whale watching in the world during August to November. The whales come so close to the cliff edge that you will hear them breathing inside the house! The house is located in the second row from beachfront with ocean views and within a short walking distance of the pristine Walker Bay nature/marine reserve with white sandy beaches and large open caves of archaeological interest. Six people are accommodated in three bedrooms, each with crisp white linen. The roome have queen size, double and two single beds respectively. There are two bathrooms, one with a shower and the other with a bath. All linen and towels are provided. A built in braai on the patio, large colour TV with full DSTV, cosy fireplace, and double lock-up garages further ensures a comfortable stay. The kitchen is fully equipped with microwave, conventional oven, fridge/freezer and all other utensils. There is a games room with table tennis. A beautiful hiking trail in front of the house winds along the rugged, fynbos lined cliffs overlooking the ocean. Visit nearby Kleinbaai Harbour (10km away) to participate in great white shark cage diving, boat based whale watching or pleasure cruises to the seal colony at Dyer Island. We are situated 180km from Cape Town, 40km from Hermanus and 5km from Gansbaai Town where fresh line fish is always available at the active harbour. Please note that no smoking inside house, or pets are allowed.

Whale of a time
Denzil Hapgood-Strickland, South Africa
26 September 2009
Very spacious and neat accommodation. Lots of space for 3 and 5 year old boys to ride on strider riders when not out exploring. Very thankful for no smoking in house. Very quiet and safe area. Had a "Whale" of a time and saw many Whales. Will definitely be back. The Safarinow.com team where excellent. Thank you for a wonderful stay.
Highly recommended.

A really lovely house, very secure area, nice people live around this area. The house is super clean, and tastefully decorated, there is loads of space, the kids fell in love with the table tennis room! I have never slept as well as I did at the Oystercatcher! There are fantastic views from the verandah. We wish we had planned to stay longer there!
