Klein Bosheuwel
Selected by The Greenwood Guide to South Africa, 2nd edition
Text written by Simon Greenwood
Who needs Kirstenbosch? Nicki has manipulated
the paths and lawns of her own garden (which is pretty well an extension of the
Botanical Gardens anyway � less than a minute�s walk away) so that the views are
not dished out in one vulgar dollop! Instead you are subtly led into them, with
glimpses through mature trees (flowering gums, yellowwoods and camellias) and
lush flower beds. And finally your stroll leads you down to umbrellas on a ridge
with Table Mountain and the Constantiaberg laid out magnificently before you and
the sea distantly below. "Keep it plain" is Nicki�s motto, so the upstairs
bedrooms are simply white, and all naturally endowed with garden views.
The salt-water swimming pool is hidden deep in the garden and Klein Bosheuwel
is the sort of place where you could just hang out for a few days. I was
introduced to one English guest who had clearly no intention of going anywhere
that day - the cat that got the cream you might have thought! Ask when booking
about children.
