Hout Bay is a small town nestled in a valley that runs down to the ocean, an attractive place to base yourself for exploring the Peninsula, right by Chapman’s Peak Drive, and with a range of services to offer. Hout Bay Manor is a historic hotel in the heart of the town and the décor befits this status, evoking country living from a bygone era. Friendly staff will take great care of you, and are always ready with a smile, and although the setting is grand, the atmosphere is relaxed and unpretentious. Hout Bay Manor is also famous for its cuisine, with hotel restaurant, Eat, being one of the gourmet highlights of the Cape Peninsula.
