Click thumbnail to enlarge

Perched on top of Signal Hill, Under the Noon Gun offers beautiful views of both Table Mountain and the City Centre. Under the Noon Gun provides you with the privacy and independence associated with apartment living. Two well-appointed apartments sleeping 8 and 6 people respectively make up this gracious Bo-Kaap holiday home.

These apartments can be rented as either separate units or combined for an extra large holiday home. In addition, a third apartment on the ground floor is also available. This is ideally suited for a single person or couple. Located on the edge of a nature reserve, the peaceful and tranquil surroundings belies the fact that one is merely 3 minutes away from the city itself.

Using the cobbled streets as your guide, wind your way uphill into a lively suburb filled with brightly colored houses from the 17th and 19th century. The Bo-Kaap area is a multicultural area and is very popular with many holiday makers. The residents, who are mostly descendants of the slaves imported by the Dutch settlers in the early 1700’s, are very proud of their rich cultural heritage.

The area itself has splendid views of Table Mountain, Lions Head and Signal Hill as well as the City Centre and is a photographers dream. Many beautiful mosques also adorn the area. Visit Table Mountain (5 min drive), Cape Town's famous beaches (10 - 20 min), Kirstenbosch Botanical Gardens (10 min), Cape Point (1 hr), the Winelands (45 mins) and many other attractions.
