Wendy's Cottage

 
 

Description

This historical cottage is located on a 1 km strip of virtually uninterrupted coastline directly on the oceanfront, bordered by public look out spots for whale watchers, with the cliff path passing behind the property.

Certainly the most unique setting in Hermanus, the cottage offers incredible privacy and peace whilst a stone's throw away from the CBD with shops, restaurants, medical facilities, tourist attractions, and hotels. The cottage's cliff side and garden form part of the Cliff Path Nature Area and allows guests to enjoy the wildlife and plants indigenous to the shore line, as well as whales and their calves during breeding and mating season from August to November. Even during bad weather, all this can be seen from the lounge of the cottage.

Located in the heart of the coastal fishing village of Hermanus, Wendy's Cottage is named after a lone female whale that used to visit the town in the late 1930's. According to SJ du Toit's book "Hermanus Stories", this whale, who was fondly know as Wendy, was considered one of the family by the village folk as she returned annually without fail to give birth to her calf in the curve of the shore line called "Die Piering", right in front of the cottage.

Character: Wendy's Cottage dates back to the 1800's and has an absolutely unique atmosphere.

Location: Wendy's location lets you enjoy great privacy and peace of mind, yet is at the edge of tourist attractions, a variety of restaurants, shops, galleries and booking facilitators for trips and shark cage diving.

Historical & Cultural: The original part of Wendy's Cottage dates back to the middle 1800's. One of Hermanus' first fisherman's cottages, it was named by the fishermen after a whale who annually came to give birth in the waters of the bay right in front of the cottage.

Outstanding Views: Uninterrupted ocean views.
