We had a wonderful, restful 2-weeks at Horizon Cottages in the Bosuns' Cabin. Accommodation met expectation for self-catering, hosts were super friendly and very considerate, and location was central to amenities and tourist attractions. A bonus was the Charlies Garage micro-brewery within walking distance, producing some superb craft beers and ciders,

Charming, comfortable and cheerful. Horizon Cottages is situated in the most beautiful spot within the amazing Noordhoek area. Alana is welcoming and full of warmth, this warmth extends into the well-appointed cottages. On a rainy, windy day they are cosy and embrace you, keeping you safe and secure from the elements... then they shine on the magnificent sunny, Cape Town days. Simply perfect. Equally important is the fact that load-shedding does not affect the guests in any way. The consumables supplied are plentiful too.

We stayed in the Captains cottage which is a two bedroom apartment. It was beautifully clean, well equipped, cosy and comfortable. We particularly enjoyed the super king-size bed and the lovely gardens with brick barbecue and picnic table on the terrace. Nothing was too much trouble for our delightful host, Alana, and we cannot recommend this place highly enough. There are many things to do nearby including a visit to Cape Point vineyard ( 3/4 minutes away) for a fantastic top class picnic with amazing views out over the ocean. Another highlight is the scenic drive by the ocean to Hout Bay for fabulous fish and chips on the beach. An amazing stay; we were sad to leave.

Friendly and helpful hosts, Alana and Vernon really made me feel welcome. I preferred the smaller cabana for my last weeks stay to the larger Bosuns cottage. I would suggest more lighting around the rooms and parking areas as very dark at night in the winter.

Awesome little spot tucked away in the hippy village if Noordhoek with easy access to Cape Town, the vineyards and beyond. The cabanas and grounds are meticulously maintained and are if a high standard. Having the freedom of self-catering means that you have a great base to explore from or equally lonnge on the deck or by the pool. Our cabana was really comfortable and we'll equipped. Unusually, the cabana is serviced twice a week meaning that there is always an abundant supply of clean towels and bedding. Really comfortable, completely relaxing and managed by the best staff; what more could you ask for? Don't hesitate, book now

My wife and I had a mini vacation at Horizon Cottages and I must say the place looks absolutely beautiful, well looked after and there is really everything you need. You just need to pack some food and you’re all set. The hosts (Alana & Vernon) are such amazing people, they are so helpful and are responds timely when you need something or have a question about the place. You should definitely visit the Farm village for some ice cream absolutely delicious! We are definitely booking another stay at Horizon Cottages
