Llandudno
Cape Town is a stunning city with many beautiful suburbs.
Yet amongst all these, Llandudno truly stands out.
Location
Llandudno is located only 20 minutes or 18km South of
Cape Town, yet feels completely removed from Cape Town.
It offers a truly spectacular, quiet and tranquil setting.
There are no shops, hotels, or restaurants in the suburb
itself, only 300 beautiful homes hugging the mountain
and overlooking two spectacular beaches. Yet civilization
is just minutes away. It's 5 minutes drive to shopping
in the fishing village of Hout Bay, 10 minutes to excellent
dining in Camps Bay, or 20 minutes to the tourist attractions
of Cape Town. The airport is a 40 minute drive.
Atlantic Seaboard
Llandudno is part of the Atlantic seaboard, the suburbs
of Cape Town that face the South Atlantic Ocean. Decades
ago the False Bay side of Cape Town was the place to
be. Over the years however the Atlantic Seaboard has
become more popular with both locals and tourists alike
due to closer proximity to the City, more protection
from the summer Southeaster winds, as well as longer
daylight hours and a view of the sun setting over the
ocean.
How to get to Llandudno
From Cape Town, you head South on Victoria Drive, passing
the fashionable beachfront communities of Greenpoint,
Seapoint, Bantry Bay, Clifton, Camps Bay and finally
Bakoven. At first you pass Palm Trees, trendy beaches,
expensive penthouse apartment buildings, trendy cafes
and bars. Once you leave Camps Bay, you leave behind
civilization and see only the South Atlantic Ocean on
your right and the majestic 12 Apostles high above you
on your left (The 12 Apostles are part of the Table
Mountain National Park). After a scenic 10 minute drive
you reach the enclave of Llandudno.
Beaches
The house is located within
walking distance of two of Cape Town’s best beaches:
It takes 10 minutes to walk to the main Llandudno beach,
Sandy Bay beach is located 15 minutes walk to the South.
Llandudno’s main beach is tucked between Granite
boulders and is considered one of Cape Town’s
most beautiful beaches. It is extremely popular with
families and surfers.
