Constantia Airlie is a lovely villa hidden in a secluded Constantia lane. It is a well-appointed, double-story Cape-Dutch-style home with 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. The living areas connect easily and lead onto the covered terrace and pool area that make for great summer entertaining. This is ideally suited to families or groups visiting Cape Town looking for a luxurious retreat to further explore the Cape.
The house has 2 wings on either side of an entrance hall. The sleeping areas are to the left of the entrance. The main bedroom is downstairs with an en-suite bathroom. Nearby is a double bedroom with great views of the garden. There are two further bedrooms upstairs one a twin bed and the other a single bed. Both upstairs bedrooms share the bathroom in the single bedroom.
The other wing consists of an open plan dining, kitchen and lounge area. This area then opens onto a fabulous covered terrace with further lounge and dining areas overlooking the pool and landscaped gardens.
This villa is recommended for guests wanting to rest and unwind in great comfort; enjoy the warm African sun as you lounge around the pool, or take a walk through the nearby vineyards, or enjoy a glass of local wine while watching the sunset from spectacular Groot Constantia. Excellent outdoor trails (walk, run or cycle) start adjacent to the house which then lead into the vineyards and mountains.
It is surrounded by an array of bar and restaurant options, catering for all tastes and ages. Savour award-winning cuisine in one of the nearby world-renowned restaurants, or enjoy al-fresco country cooking, all located within the oldest wine-growing area in Southern Africa.
NB: there are 2 very private, self-contained cottages on property that are rented out to tenants. One shares access through the main gate.
