Owl cottage itself is charming, a real home from home and very well equipped. We also loved the well maintained garden and pool area. Having previously stayed at busy Sea Point, we appreciated the peaceful surroundings of Constantia and the incredible views of Table Mountain and the Groot Constantia vineyard. Simply perfect.
