Villa Mira | Woodbridge Island⁠

When a home is as close to 100 years old as this one, the feeling of history becomes tangible. Built nearly a century ago for an aristocratic family and later home to the High Commissioner of the United Kingdom, there’s an unmistakable sense of memory in the air. Countless stories have played out between these walls. ⁠

Faithfully restored, the home's Spanish Revival architecture shines, from vaulted ceilings and wide arched windows to hand-painted tiles and twisting chimneys. Inside, an inspired collection includes work by Lulama Wolf, William Kentridge and Gabrielle Kruger.⁠

Today, Villa Mira welcomes a new generation of travellers. ⁠

The Weekender | Scarborough⁠

On the Venn diagram of ‘staying at home’ and ‘going on holiday’, a well-placed jaunt falls right in the sweetspot where the two overlap. Far enough to feel restorative, close enough to do on a whim – the secret to a successful sojourn lies in maximum time offline with minimum transit.⁠

Roughly 40 minutes out of Cape Town by way of a winding coastal road, Scarborough isn’t so much outside of town as it is outside of time. Here, between bone-white dunes and crashing waves, joy is found in life’s smallest rituals. Morning coffee on the veranda. Long walks along the wild coast. Sunsets by an open fire. ⁠

Introducing: Huguenot | Stellenbosch⁠

As if you needed a reason to break away to a farm in the Cape Winelands. This historic estate is cocooned among the citrus groves and oak trees, wrapping itself around the Berg River with its gaze turned towards the Drakenstein Mountains. Nature explodes here in all her glory: yellow kiwis, black figs, golden apples and burgundy grapes. A deeply healing stay far from the crowds. ⁠

'These escapes are not for Instagram reels; they’re for the very real need to reconfigure in a way that feels personal and intentional.'⁠

We're in our micro-escapes era. What’s really changing is not just how long we travel for, but how we want to feel when we do. ⁠
The question is no longer where will you go, but why will you go.⁠

At Art House Collection, this shifts into homes that prioritise space, context, and access, placing guests within Cape Town’s creative and cultural fabric, rather than adjacent to it.⁠

Less volume. More depth.⁠

Stays at Heaven are defined by the ocean, which is a constant presence, just steps beyond the front door. Inside, the home becomes a beachfront gallery, its white walls and light-filled spaces featuring some of contemporary African art's biggest names.

Oranjezicht remains quietly under the radar – for now. Set between Table Mountain, the city, and the ocean just beyond the pass, it offers a rare kind of proximity without compromise. The pace is slower here, more lived-in, and ideal for longer stays that fold you gently into Cape Town.⁠

Here you'll discover Hope House. A 1920s manor house reimagined with the ease and generosity of a private hotel. We think of it as a ‘mini Mount Nelson’ (the landmark hotel is just moments away). Fully staffed and quietly grand – it feels like a Gilded Age home teleported into the present.

Long weekends, redefined by stillness.⁠

At Cedar, time loosens its grip. Days are not scheduled but felt, measured in small, grounding rituals: the pauses in conversation, the quiet of stargazing, the comfort of shared quiet closeness.⁠

You'll find us where solitude is uninterrupted and time is abundant – an April escape into the wilderness of the Cape, exactly as intended.⁠

A noble Cape Dutch manor set high against the Franschhoek mountains.⁠

Belvedere quietly surveys the valley below – surrounded by vineyards, gardens and open sky – this is a place of stillness, where gentle architecture and wild landscape move at a slower, more considered pace.⁠

📍 Belvedere, Franschhoek, Cape Town

A private home with the ease of a luxury hotel.⁠
