Located in the mountain off the rugged coastline of Cape Town’s southern peninsula, Cape Point Hideaway lies approximately 44 km from Cape Town International Airport, offering a scenic drive through some of the city’s most iconic landscapes.
Please note that you access the Villa on a 4km gravel road. It is recommended to travel in an SUV or high clearance vehicle.
Route 1: Via Ou Kaapse Weg
From the airport, follow the N2 highway towards Cape Town before taking the M3 south, which winds through leafy suburbs and along the base of Table Mountain. Continue to Steenberg Road and take Ou Kaapse Weg, a mountain pass that offers panoramic views of the Cape Peninsula. As you descend into the valley, join Kommetjie Road (M65) and follow the signs for Scarborough and Cape Point. Turn onto Redhill Road and follow it towards the Baskloof Fynbos Nature Reserve’s entrance, which lies just beyond the village of Scarborough. Drive past the Baskloof Nature Reserve’s entrance, and turn left into the driveway of Kilfinan Farm. At the “No Dogs Allowed” sign, you will see a “farm style” gate with a chain wrapped around (it is not locked). Once you have unchained and opened the gate, passed through and closed it again, proceed straight along the dirt road up the mountain until you reach our Villa.
Route 2: Via Fish Hoek and Kalk Bay
For a more scenic coastal route, from the airport, follow the N2 highway towards Cape Town, then take the M3 south. Exit onto Main Road (M4) and head towards Muizenberg. From here, the road hugs the coastline, passing the vibrant seaside villages of Fish Hoek and Kalk Bay. Enjoy the breathtaking views of False Bay as you continue through Simon’s Town, home to historic naval landmarks and penguin colonies. Follow the signs for Cape Point along the M66, which merges with Redhill Road. Turn right into the driveway of Kilfinan Farm. At the “No Dogs Allowed” sign, you will see a “farm style” gate with a chain wrapped around (it is not locked). Once you have unchained and opened the gate, passed through and closed it again, proceed straight along the dirt road up the mountain until you reach our Villa.
