The Cape Town Cycle Tour transforms the Mother City into a cycling celebration every year. Fish Hoek residents get ready to applaud from the sidelines and Seaside Cottages showers riders with special deals and good times. Choose the best self-catering cottages on the Peninsula as your base and catch the train to the city.

Seaside Cottages offers the best deal in the Deep South for a 3-night discount or a 4-night 1 free night treat during the race weekend, and the rest of March. We love Fish Hoek, Cape Town's best beach by far.

We have all flipped our calendars to January 2025 and take our first light steps into a new year, 12 new months that seem to glow with hope and feel ripe with possibility. This is a time to breathe, reflect, and embrace nature’s quiet wisdom.

We invite you to stop awhile in Fish Hoek, a tranquil seaside village nestled between rugged mountains and shimmering ocean waters, to listen carefully to the call to slow down and smell the proteas.

Stay at Seaside Cottages to escape the rush of work and stress. We offer an invitation to pause, recalibrate, and carry that sense of serenity into the months ahead.

Stay at Seaside Cottages on Fish Hoek Beach.

A Cape Town summer is synonymous with dazzling white beaches, aqua-blue oceans, mountain views, ice cream cones and coconut sun cream. Take a road trip to Fish Hoek Beach to discover all things magical from penguins and whales to fynbos hikes and a coffee culture second to none.

At Seaside Cottages you can experience all of this and more if you book a holiday in the best self-catering accommodation in Cape Town’s False Bay. Appreciate summer’s long hot days, crimson ocean sunrises and surf ski lessons on the beach. Hike the mountains, photograph King Proteas and watch rare African penguins sleeping on huge boulders.

Cape Town is home to diverse wildlife in pristine natural habitats. From wild baboons in stone pine trees, agile caracals on mountain slopes and cute penguins on beaches, to enormous whales of the deep blue sea and pretty tortoises dawdling on footpaths. This is the Deep South, the Southern Peninsula, and Fish Hoek is the centre of it all.

Stay at Seaside Cottages, the best self-catering accommodation on the beach, and discover the Mother City's wild side! We have wonderful facilities for groups - birders, conservationists, botanists, tree lovers, fynbos enthusiasts, hikers and whale watchers.
