Why you should stay in these Villas in South Africa
Silver Bay Villa, Shelley Point
Why: we canโt choose which youโll enjoy more – the unspoilt natural beauty of your surrounds or the sheer opulence and comfort of the villa, which lies perched on dunes overlooking Stompneus Bay Beach. Perhaps itโs the sea-facing sliding glass doors that will do it for you?

The Mountain House, Clovelly
Why: because you border Table Mountain National Park up against the slopes of Trappieskop Mountain, the valley and sea displayed before you. And Mountain House is minimalistically decorated so as not to detract from your experience.

De Hoop Victorian Farm House, Greyton
Why: this beautiful Victorian-style villa on Vigne Lane in Greyton is pure romance, from its beautifully decorated bedrooms, wonderful indoor living area with fireplace, to its ingenious outdoor wood-fired hot tub. Sleeps 10.

La Maison Verte, Knysna
Why: we adore this pretty eco-friendly cottage divided across two floors with its hint of seaside living and casual details. Particularly weโre in-love with the swimming pool and views. Sleeps four.

The Nelsbells Cottage, Clarens
Why: if youโre not left gasping at the sight of this rustic Victorian-style cottage, then youโve a heart of stone. The double-storey in Clarens is informally furnished and comes with its own garden flat, making it perfect for friend or family gatherings of over eight.

Blaauw Cottage, Riebeek Kasteel
Why: because it broadcasts โcountry livingโ with a capital โCโ. It might be modest, but the beautiful spaces of this energy efficient designer cottage are perfect for a weekend for four. Itโs the garden and splash pool, and the accompanying loft room over the garage, that we covet.

Nguni Cottage, Mtunzini
Why: draped over with the branches of indigenous trees and dripping in tropical vegetation, a quaint veranda opening up onto simple lawn, you canโt but want to escape to Nguni Cottage for a quiet down-time away from it all.

Bush Lodge at Hidden Valley, Stellenbosch
Why: this gorgeous modern villa lies on the slopes of the Helderberg Mountain on a boutique wine farm with views over the vineyards, valley and Table Mountain. We donโt know what we love more – the deck area or the fact that thereโs an optional separate cottage. Sleeps six.

22 Protea, Gordons Bay
Why: the contemporary open-plan style, high ceilings and floor-to-ceiling glass doors that give you views out over the ocean from just about every room. Six bedrooms sleep 12.

Restio River House, Pringle Bay
Why: the house is a contemporary retreat with majestic panoramic ocean and mountain views with the Buffels River at its doorstep. Sleeps ten guests in five bedrooms.
