At Epic Guest House, we are close enough to the Cape with all its activities and just far enough for you to enjoy the tranquility. Whether you like whale-watching or botanical gardens, there is so much to see and do here, you wont know where to start! A typical day out in and around Noordhoek could include:
• Long beach - well known for its pristine 8 km white sandy beach which offers fantastic walks from Noordhoek all the way to Kommetjie
• Family friendly Fish Hoek Beach (warmer False Bay) with accessible promenade (Jager's Walk) along the side of the sea/mountain
• Boutique Shopping, Souvenirs & Playground is easily available at Noordhoek Farm Village, Imhoff Farm & the Garden Emporium
• Cape Point Vineyards for wine tastings, this Vineyard has won numerous awards and creates a vide variety of delicious wines
• Whale Watching; spectacular sightings of the impressive Southern Right whales. If you are lucky you may even see a Bryde’s whale, Humpback whales, while Orcas and Dolphins are also common. (main season from late July to October)
If you decide to head into Cape Town/Peninsula, you could visit:
• Boulders Beach Penguin colony settled in historic Simon’s Town, and never stops to amuse and entertain one. Their comical ‘waddling’ along the beach entertains everybody and their grace in the water is surprising and we watch in awe
• Cape of Good Hope & Cape Point - the most southern point of the Cape Peninsula and lies in the middle of a nature reserve. Driving through our floral kingdom of fynbos & proteas, unique to our area, with dramatic cliffs as well as the secretive wildlife of Dassies (rock hyrax), large colonies of Cormorants, Ostrich, Zebra, Eland, and other smaller antelopes etc
• Cape Point Ostrich Farm offers a guided tour of the farm by a well trained team who will show you around and give you detailed information about the life cycle of an ostrich from egg to the adult bird
• Waterfront & Robben Island: ‘Shop until you drop’ at the Waterfront in the many stores, restaurants, market, aquarium and be entertained by the many buskers. An excursion to the famous island where Nelson Mandela was imprisioned for 18 years leaves a big impression and is a memorable outing
• Table Mountain lower cable station is ~30km from Noordhoek, your staring point to explore the top and enjoy the awesome views from Cape Town all the way to the Peninsula
• Hout Bay Sunday Market & Green Point Market are 2 of the more famous markets where you can test your bartering skills
What Our Guests Say...
"I had a great time in South Africa staying in the Epic Guest House. The owner was extremly friendly, gave us very useful advices about what we could/should see and do around Capetown. The house was lovely and very clean. I can recommend the Epic Guest House to everybody!" Oct 2012 - Tanja, CH
"Four of us, including 2 wheelchairs travellers, spent 7 days in Kruger on an Epic Enabled safari led by Alfie. He is very knowledgeable and has told us a lot and interesting things. Then we experienced 6 days of hospitality at the Epic Guest House by Alfie & Sabine in Cape Town. I have never been in such a beautiful & large place. We also experienced some beautiful tours in Cape Town." July 2012, Ed Baks & family, NL
"To say we enjoyed our safai is an understatement, it was fantastic. We saw over 30 different animals inc. big 5. The disabled facilities for joyce who is a full time wheelchair user were excellent. We also visited sabine and alfies B & B which again offers 1st class facilities for disabled travellers visiting the cape area. Alfie, a big hug and thanks for a really memorable holiday" Joyce and Peter, April 2010, UK
"Dear Sabine & Alfie,
This is just a belated thank you note for all the kindness and consideration you showed me when I was a guest in your guest house last month. The house was truly beautiful and so very accessible, the bath was a dream but the greatest thing about it was your graciousness to me. Warming a hot water bottle for me at night was the nicest thing anybody has ever done for me. Indeed, it never occurred to me that another person would do such a thing. The tours were great, breakfast was incredible and the wonderful bed.
Your little boy is a joy and a delight.....he was fun! I really enjoyed Trash and the other dogs. I do go into canine withdrawal after a time away from mine.
Thank you so much! Best Regards" Margaret Bonds, USA, May 2010
"We have spent a great weekend at the amazing, accessible Epic Guesthouse in Noordhoek, where all four of the rooms and bathrooms cater for people in wheelchairs - probably the only one in SA! Thank you" Karin Coetzee, Disabledtravel.com, South Africa, Dec 2010
