Stay in MooiBaai Cottages in one of the hyper comfortable rooms and relax on your private terrace en

MooiBaai Cottages is located in Hout Bay, a beautifully green suburb of Cape Town. Hout Bay lies in the Cape Peninsula and is surrounded by an impressive mountain landscape on three sides whilst the bay spectacularly opens to the wide Atlantic Ocean in the south. It is a perfect starting point for many attractions and activities in the area, for exploring the Mother City (as Cape Town is called) situated just behind the corner, going to Cape Point via the iconic Chapman’s Peak Drive, w**e tasting in Constantia or enjoying one of many pristine sandy beaches along the coastline. Due to its central location, Hout Bay is often considered as “The Heart of the Cape”.

In September I had a new photoshoot done, by the (fantastic I see now!! 😅) Twoways and styled by Claudia Schotman. So please brace yourself for new room pictures! It was about time, to reflect some of the changes that I had done over the last years.

But in the first ‘load’ that I received, were already these 2 ❤️❤️❤️ I must say these pictures (and also of the rooms, and of everything) made me quite emotional.
How wonderful to see Mooibaai through someone else’s eye…

My yearly little appreciation post for this monster, big character and best friend: (Peter) Parker ❤️❤️

Last Sunday was his gotcha day: 6 years since he arrived at Mooibaai. The first thing he saw when he came out of the car that Sunday, were horses. He had never seen such big dogs!! So it took a while before he got used to them. Now he’s not scared of anyone - just maybe (German) shepperds 😅
•
Tomorrow we go for a run again P, it’s a promise!

A photo dump of the past week! With the parents visiting, the days are full to the brim. A week of working, a hike, re-discovering places, whales, w**es. It’s very intense but also very nice ☺️

The gifboom is showing off!!
I am used to it blossoming only in October? Should look it up in my camera roll…
And the fragrance… 🥰🥰🥰🤩 something in between a hyacinth or a lily in the valley or jasmin.

Visiting in spring does have its perks!

My mountain goat 😍😍

It’s not my most photogenic series ever - the sky was too hazy and the views were too impressive to capture. But this hazy sky made it a perfect day for a hike, yes: a hike!! A 6h hike!
I took a day off today, a day just for me. Which started with the coffee that you see at the end 😊
The last 2 days would have been way too hot btw, and as this morning the clouds lifted a bit, I decided to go for it 💪
•
The intention was to just climb up Noordhoek peak, eat my lunch and enjoy the views, descend Blackburn side and go back to starting point. But because the last time I did this hike was many many years ago, I accidentally took another route at the top and found myself at the Eagles’ Nest trail. A-mazing but joh, not exactly like the jeep track 😂 Add to that the contour path that is never ending, but well, so worth it…
•
Also, you see a picture of the trail sign! Worth to look this one up, it’s a 5 day hike from Table Mountain all the way to Cape Point 🤩🤩

Our annual outing and upon popular demand, this year’s destination was… Robben Island! And for me also the perfect reason to visit, at last 😅😅🙈 (yes red cheeks now 🫠).
I’ve heard so many mixed stories about it and it takes so much of your time, that it just never happened… but well: it was worth the trip!
Maybe also because we had all elements in our favour: the quick boat, beautiful winter weather, we sat outside on the back deck (the views!!) and our guides were good and spoke clearly.
I found it just: too short in time. Especially for the prison visit there was hardly any time to soak it all up. That’s a missed opportunity, in my eyes at least.
But would I recommend it now: yes. We don’t have to hang in the past, we must move forward. But let’s never forget what has once happened, even not so long ago…

Not a nice day in sight in the coming days (maybe Monday?), so no other option than to unglue myself from my laptop and go for a quick outing to grab some vitamine D! I left too late to make it to the top and suddenly some clouds popped up, but still… It’s about time to go up my mountain again.

P shows his most natural and precious side at the end 😂
