Nicol Street Heritage Cottages is a collection of six impeccably presented cottages and apartments designed for stylish, comfortable living within easy reach of Cape Town’s hotspots.
Two of these are two-bedroom units, and cots can be provided for infants on request (though please note that extra beds in the rooms can’t be provided). Conveniently laid out with all units positioned next door to each other, this is an excellent option for those seeking an exclusive takeover. As the property is located on a quiet, leafy cul-de-sac, guests can expect a private, peaceful resting space, merely a few steps from all the action! Dating back to the 1850s, the carefully restored cottages offer the ultimate city center escape, complete with open-plan living spaces, light-flooded windows, kitchenettes, and delightful patios ideal for sitting in the sunshine with an early morning coffee. Each unit is styled slightly differently, featuring bold colours, sink-in velvet sofas, wooden floors with contemporary rugs, and plenty of potted plants that bring the Cape Town greenery inside! The African Honeymoon Cottage is particularly romantic with its old-world colonial style and luxury bathroom with checkerboard tiles and a deep-soaking bathtub. Each accommodation is air-conditioned and includes a Smart TV with Netflix and other streaming apps, complimentary Wi-Fi access, and modern kitchen appliances, including a toaster, a microwave, and tea- and coffee-making facilities. Open-plan living areas feature writing desks and dining spaces, while outside you’ll find prettily planted furnished patios with trellises. On-street parking is available.
