ABOUT CHIDUKU

A special cottage on the quieter side of town.

Chiduku is a long-established cottage set on the hillside above the historic naval port of Simon’s Town, with sweeping views across the harbour, naval dockyard and False Bay. Renovated in 2004, the property is surrounded by an indigenous garden with its own labyrinth and sits on the quieter side of town, while remaining within easy walking distance of the village, its restaurants, shops, museums and waterfront.

The property contains two separate, self-contained units: Upstairs and Downstairs, each with its own character.

Each unit has its own outside access and no shared indoor living space, with sweeping 180-degree views across False Bay.
