About the host
Hosted by Wendy Anderson
Hi, I’m Wendy from Gauteng, South Africa. I love hosting and sharing the charm of Bayside Cottage with guests from near and far. Creating a peaceful, welcoming space where people can relax and feel at home is something I truly enjoy. I hope you’ll love your stay as much as I love hosting it!
Why they chose this property
Bayside Cottage is nestled in the heart of Glencairn, a serene coastal neighborhood just outside of Cape Town. Surrounded by mountains and sea, it’s the kind of place where you can truly slow down and breathe. Whether it’s morning walks along Glencairn Beach, spotting whales from the shoreline, or enjoying a glass of wine as the sun sets over False Bay, every moment here feels special.
What I love most about this area is the peaceful, close-knit community and the natural beauty that’s all around. It’s the perfect escape—quiet, scenic, and still just a short drive from charming shops, restaurants, and attractions in Simon’s Town or Kalk Bay.
