Description
The St James Manor House is a five star stately seaside retreat overlooking the trendy and vibrant fishing village of
Kalk Bay with majestic views across False Bay and the Indian Ocean.
St James, historically known as ‘millionaire’s mile’ is making its comeback as one of the trendiest places to stay in
Cape Town. The area still boasts the traditional colourful Victorian bathing boxes and grand old houses. Fresh fish
can be brought from the local fishermen and the harbour itself offers excellent seafood restaurants from rustic local
cuisine to fine dining experiences.
Mediterranean in style, the main road is a hive of novel antique shops, delicatessens, boutiques and art galleries a
mere ten minute walk from the Manor House and, across the road, you will find the famous tidal pools and
swimming beaches. A favourite pastime is the early morning swim in the wind protected, warm waters of St James.
St James also offers interesting walks along the historic promenade and up the imposing mountains. Perhaps the
biggest attraction is the land based whale watching in season. They appear literally meters from the shoreline and
can be seen clearly from The St James Retreat.
The St James Manor House, built a hundred years ago, has an aura of grandeur and old world charm. A magnificent
staircase leads up to the large suites, individually decorated to reflect the opulent times of a bygone era. And
carved into the mountain is a private and wind protected swimming pool and tanning deck with views across False
Bay.
Breakfasts are a speciality offering a wide choice of interesting fare and are inclusive, as are all beverages. Dinners
and lunches are available by arrangement.
