Cottage on the Kom

Welcome to Kommetjie, a suburb of Cape Town nestled in the heart of the Southern Peninsula. Just 35 km from the city centre, this enchanting destination offers breathtaking scenery, a serene village atmosphere, and an intimate connection with nature.

Indulge in the beauty of our waterfront cottage, a secluded oasis separate from the main house. Surrounded by lush gardens, this charming retreat awaits you. Designed for two guests, the cottage also offers an upstairs mezzanine floor with two single beds for additional accommodation. The en-suite bathroom features a shower, hand basin, and toilet, while the lounge area adjoins a fully-equipped kitchen. With the convenience of barbecue and Weber facilities, as well as off-street undercover parking, your stay will be nothing short of perfection.

Though Kommetjie may be a small village, it boasts an array of amenities, including a mini-market, restaurants, pubs, Internet cafe, post office, laundry, and petrol station. And if you're in need of larger shopping malls and additional services, they can be found just 8 km away.

While relaxation is hard to resist, there are plenty of nearby activities to keep you entertained. Ride the waves with some surfing or kayaking, reel in a big catch while fishing, or marvel at the stunning array of birdlife. Take leisurely strolls along the famous Noordhoek Beach, embark on extensive mountain walks, or explore the rugged terrain on a mountain bike. And don't forget to discover the hidden treasures of the Southern Suburbs, including the breathtaking Cape Point Nature Reserve and the historically rich Simons Town, both just a stone's throw away. Yet despite being surrounded by these wonders, you are only a 40-minute drive from the iconic V&A Waterfront and majestic Table Mountain, accessible via the breathtaking Chapman's Peak Drive. And for wine enthusiasts, the captivating Winelands of Stellenbosch are also within easy reach. With all that awaits you, your journey begins here.

    07 January 2015

    "Cottage on the Kom is really a magical spot. The view is fabulous and the gracious hosts Debbie and Willie have thought of all of the little things to make your stay really comfortable.

    20 December 2014

    "Very friendly host. Very clean facilities. Amazing view, great walks and surroundings."

  • "Awesome!"

    17 March 2014

    "Spectacular setting and awesome hosts! We were looking for a self catering unit with easy access to the sea, with a sea view and away from the buzz. Clean, neat and cosy decorating! Will definitely return."

  • "Cottage on the Krom"

    23 October 2013

    "Excellent quiet position and very well appointed cottage with garden frontage overlooking the rocky shore and sea. The owners were very welcoming and supportive. As well as being well situated for local coastal walks the cottage also provides an ideal base for exploring the attractions of the Cape Peninsula. The four friendly family dogs were great characters and, for us, an added bonus!"

  • "Total calm"

    10 April 2013

    "Total privacy, even being attached to the main house...lovely hosts, great location and amazing views, even from the bed."

  • "Delightful"

    12 March 2013

    "The Cottage is a hugely satisfying place to stay in Kommetjie. The site on the Kom, the view through the trees, the delightful garden front and back not to mention the comfort of the well-thought furnishings."

  • "Perfect setting"

    19 February 2013

    "Cotage on the Kom is really the perfect setting for a couple looking to get away from the hustle and bustle of city life. The unit was well-furnished and had everything we needed. The view from the unit was fantastic overlooking the lush green garden and ocean just a few metres away. My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay and we will definitely be back."

  • "Home from home"

    02 November 2012

    "A very comfortable self catering establishment which was not only very nicely furnished, but unlike other self catering establishments it was not furnished and equipped with second hand mish mash of old discards of the owner or elsewhere. The host was very helpful and we can truly say it was like home from home and the location is ideal and you are even protected from a howling South Easter. Highly recommended."

  • "Very nice and spacious!"

    05 March 2012

    "A very nice place to stay! Good views and a very spacious - luxurious almost - room. Very friendly owners."

  • "The best part of our trip"

    28 November 2011

    "After about 12 days of travelling South Africa on buses, staying in hostels and tenting in Kruger Park, there was no better way to spend our last two days than at this cottage. We wish we could've stayed longer! Tucked away on the west side of the Cape with wonderful views of the ocean and mountains around you, this is such a relaxing place. It's also a great way to spend your time at the Cape as you can easily hop in your car and make the drive to Chapman's Peak, Simon's Town or right down to the Cape of Good Hope. Debbie and Will are extremely friendly, the cottage is in pristine condition and Debbie makes a wonderful breakfast to start your day - if you opt to go that route. I'm only disappointed we couldn't stay longer and truly hope we can go back to South Africa one day, and if so, we'll definitely be staying at the Cottage on the Kom again. Thank you Debbie and Will!"

  • "Perfect weekend getaway"

    05 September 2011

    "This spot is perfectly located for surfers and wives/girlfriends of surfers ...right on the Kom. Very friendly family and hospitality! I am sure we'll be back one day."

  • "Perfect"

    23 May 2011

    "This was the ideal breakaway at a place that was home away from home! We definitely will go back!"

  • "One of Cape Town's best kept secrets"

    11 April 2011

    "We had a fantastic time at Cottage on the Kom. The accommodation was very comfortable with everything you need. The real magic is what waits to be discovered outside. The cottage opens up onto a garden that becomes rock pools that becomes the sea. No road separating you from the sea which means if you have young children they can come and go as they like. There's a small bike path that meanders along the sea which is great for cycling. Other than that it's an ideal weekend getaway."

  • "The cottage is perfect!"

    27 February 2011

    "The cottage is perfect, we stayed there for two nights. And it is a very beautiful place, very comfortable and luxurious. We loved it!"

  • "Delightful"

    14 February 2011

    "What a delightful self-catering unit this is. The owners Michelle and Willie were extremely friendly and helpful. Well equipped cottage with stunning views. Will not hesitate to recommend this!"
