Cottage vacation rentals in False Bay

I didn't expect the living area to be so big! Jacuzzi with a view of the stars definitely 5+ Thank u!

We had such a memorable stay in Scarborough with Sebastian at Ballygate. We all felt the house had a welcoming and family-friendly energy. It felt like the house was filled with many family memories as it certainly will live in our memories forever. The place was perfectly situated with endless views of the mountains and rural areas of Scarborough, yet a quick walk to the beach. We spent every morning sipping coffee watching sunrise from the patio, walking the length of the beach, exploring the Cape and then catching sunset back at Scarborough. Sebastian was always immediate with everything we asked. He was friendly and helpful and his instructions couldn't be more clear. The house has everything you need and it was cozy and comfortable for everybody.I have nothing horrible to say about Ballygate. we will most definitely make the 30 hour flight again just to stay here with Sebastian.

Perfect getaway spot in beautiful Hermanus! The location is fantastic –private, and close to town (walking distance). The firewood hot tub was such a treat, and the host was incredibly welcoming and helpful. Highly recommend!

Beautiful place perfect for a weekend away to unplug. All the farm animals are super friendly and the farm itself is beautiful. The place is super comfortable and quiet and has all the amenities to make you feel cozy and right at home. The only minus was that the kolkol was a bit green but that should be pretty easy to get fixed. Overall, we definitely recommend staying there.

What a Gem of a place on the most beautiful apple farm. The cottage is perfectly positioned to access the most amazing mountain bike trails in the surrounding area. The rooms are spacious and modern, giving you the feeling of luxury, yet still on a farm enjoying the smells and feelings of not being in town. Dwayne and the team were extremely good at communications too and allowed for a seamless stay. Keep it up team, amazing work.

Had a lovely stay at the cottage. Special views to enjoy, well equipped home, uncluttered yet including most of what makes a break comfortable. Particularly impressed by kitchen equipment, cutlery, crockery quality - makes for convenient self catering. Location good and plenty of activities nearby. Very suitable for a couple or family of 4 but might feel a bit crowded with six adults in the space. But certainly a wonderful break away

This is a lovely cottage with a peaceful atmosphere and fantastic mountain views. There were a couple of snags during our stay, but the hosts were quick to respond to any needs

We absolutely loved our stay! Every second of it was incredible. The place felt so homey and cozy—it instantly made us feel comfortable and relaxed. The outdoor area was especially beautiful and added such a peaceful vibe to the whole experience. You can tell a lot of care has gone into making this space special. Highly recommend and would definitely come back!

Via someone who stayed there with her 2 kids and who I booked it for :)... A super cosy and well-appointed cottage with beautiful ocean and mountain views. The large pool and incredible garden, complete with a frog-filled stream running through it, was a delight to my kids (I think the frogs were less delighted however). We greatly enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend.

10/10 spot in gardens! Super cozy and has everything you would need. Private and tucked away in the back, fast WiFi, comfy bed, good kitchen and 3 lovely dogs on the property 🥹 super close to Resturant’s and main action, but tucked away where it feels private Molly is so kind and welcoming, she made the stay effortless and I can’t wait to come back . Don’t miss this gem!

I use Airbnb A LOT. I book 3 or 4 places a month & I must say, this is definitely top 5 for me! We felt right at home from the moment we checked in! Jay was a ray of sunshine. Her lovely energy makes you feel like you are meeting an old friend. She took the time to read my profile & seeing that I love plants, she gave me permission to play in her garden the whole week. This was the highlight of my stay. These 2 wholesome beings are such a lovely couple that goes above & beyond to make their guests feel welcome & taken care of! Their caretaker Mr Darlington was friendly, helpful & there whenever l needed his assistance! This home is very comfortable, safe, clean & had everything we needed. It looks even better than the pictures! The outdoor garden is so cosy. You can braai or just chill & enjoy a quiet evening! check out was ofcoz sad, l wish l could’ve stayed longer. Our whole stay was exactly what my little family needed. Would definitely recommend & we plan on staying here again!

Lovely and peaceful with interior space even better than in the photographs. The unit had everything we needed and communication was clear an quick. Good location close to town but away from the crowds. As is clear from the pictures these unites are side-by-side, but they are still very private. (I guess you could have bad luck and a noisy neighbour.) Would definitely recommend.

John’s cottage was absolutely lovely; warm, homely, and perfectly located within walking distance to the beach. The views were breathtaking, and the peaceful surroundings made it the perfect getaway. We had such a special time as a family, especially gathered around the fire in the evenings. The cottage was spotless, and we especially loved the outdoor shower, such a treat looking at the mountains while washing away the day! John was kind and responsive throughout. We’ll definitely be back again!

We had a wonderful time in Rooi-Els. We enjoyed the beautiful natural surroundings and lovely views. The cottage is rustic but charming and, its location is something very special. Illah is a wonderful host and quick to respond to any queries.

Its absolutely beautiful! Wish we could've stayed for a week!

Jannie was a great host, He met us at the premises upon our arrival and made us feel at home. Gave clear instructions and recommendations. We made a mistake and didn’t listen to the instructions carefully, so we couldn’t find the key to the front door and messaged Jannie that we cannot get out through front door and had to use back door. Jannie immediately drove from his place to come help us, just to find the key hanging behind the door🙈. He is a very friendly host.

11/10. Incredible stay! 10 minute drive from downtown Franschoek and easy access to all surrounding wineries. The property is gorgeous and the private salt pool is amazing, especially on hot days. Kitchen is brand new and well equipped, we enjoyed cooking there, especially grilled lamb chops with a bottle of the property’s merlot on our last night. Hope to come back for another visit soon!

We very much enjoyed our stay with Debbie. She gave us a very warm welcome and told us about all the rescued animals she keeps. The cottage was well equipped, is in a very peaceful location overlooking the stream at the bottom of the garden and has an excellent rain shower. We would definitely recommend Debbie's Airbnb to anyone contemplating staying over.

The little owl cottage was beautifully placed in an affluent residential area which felt safe and perfect for families. We could explore all Cape-towns delights within 30mins and return back to the the pool and gardens afterwards for a relax. I’d definitely recommend this place 👍

Lovely little farm cottage with access to a beautiful swimming pool. Basic amenities but perfect for a couple on a budget and close to the town centre.

We couldn’t have asked for a more wonderful stay at Jenny’s. The cottage is a little slice of heaven - beautifully furnished with meticulous attention to detail. We loved waking up to the sound of birds and the view of lush greenery as the morning sunlight streamed. Jenny was the perfect host and made us feel right at home. We already miss her highly addictive weekly cinnamon buns :-) Thank you so much Jenny for being so wonderful and the best holiday, we can’t wait to be back!

we had a lovely stay at Anne's cottage. Beautiful location. Our children loved the trampoline and the ducks. would definitely stay again.

The perfect place to stay in Fish Hoek! Linda was a fantastic host, quick to respond and very attentive. The cottage is very comfortable and we had everything we needed. Awesome views and the funicular makes going up and down from the street a breeze. We'll definitely be back!

The most beautiful and Idyllic stay. Bettina and Dieter were wonderful communicators, made us feel right at home and we would come back in a heart beat. Our whole family loved it. Thank you Bettina and Dieter! A secret oasis.
