Amber Haven Studio

This cosy, open-plan bachelor’s pad sleeps a couple in comfort, and is the perfect place for either a long-term lease or a short stay. Its intimate, private balcony affords a panoramic and awe-inspiring view of Table Mountain’s craggy magnificence, from Devil’s Peak to all twelve of the Twelve Apostles. It’s the place to be on those special afternoons when the ‘table cloth’ pours off the plateaux in a river of mist.

The sizeable windows and sliding door lend a sense of airiness, and the alarm system, indoor garage and intercom, plus the fact that it’s attached to the main house makes it completely secure. Tiled throughout, with the exception of the durable modern bedroom carpets, this studio apartment also comes with under floor heating for barefoot comfort during year round.

The bedroom has a ceiling fan for when the night air is a little too hot for comfort, and satellite TV, a favourite DVD, some light radio listening on the mini hi-fi system or the amazing view from the bedroom window can be enjoyed while reclining in the luxury of the queen-sized bed.

The balcony is accessible from the bedroom area, and has a table and chairs for al fresco dining while enjoying the majestic vista armed with a glass of one of the Cape’s award winning wines. Adjacent to the bedroom, stools provide a place at the kitchen counter for breakfast or snacks with friends.

The kitchen is fitted with stunning dark-wood built-in cupboards and shiny, easy-to-clean modern countertops. It has all the necessary equipment to enjoy a stay of any length, including a washing machine, tumble dryer and dishwasher.

The bathroom has dark wooden cupboards with marble-finish tops, boasts a bath with a separate shower, and as an added bonus, towels are provided. It’s ideal for a good long soak in a hot bubble bath after a hard day of sightseeing or a night out on the town.
