Explore this stay

Where mountain air meets ocean light. Set high above the tidal edge of False Bay, Saint James is a coastal home with cinematic views, luminous interiors, and a front-row seat to the curve of the Cape. Mornings are golden and slow here. Afternoons stretch out across the sea. Come evening, the horizon swells with colour and calm.

What To Expect

Pared-back and purposeful, Saint James opens itself to the landscape with floor-to-ceiling glass doors, soft coastal hues, and layered textures of linen, timber, and stone. The open-plan living space is upstairs, designed to make the most of the view, flowing from kitchen to lounge to balcony in one long, sunlit breath. A fireplace anchors the room, perfect for quiet winter evenings. The kitchen is fully equipped and finished in cool, polished concrete — minimal but welcoming. Outside, a private garden and shaded barbecue area invite slow lunches and long conversations. Whether you’re working, writing, or simply resting, Saint James offers a quiet rhythm just above the tide.

Sleeping Arrangements

Downstairs, four bedrooms sit tucked against the mountain’s slope. Two have en-suite bathrooms, while the remaining rooms share three adjacent guest bathrooms. Each space is simply furnished, grounded, and restful. One of the bedrooms can be configured as two singles or a king bed, depending on the needs of your group.
