About the Home
"The Wellington Skeete (est. 1980) has come to represent the best of blended families and nations. From far and opposite corners of the world, a love endured and blossomed between the maiden Skeete and the huntsman W Ellington. To honour that love, please enjoy the hospice on offer - may a lovely stay be bestowed upon you" This beautifully renovated historic home has been carefully decorated and thought out. There are two bedrooms with en-suites each, a spacious living room with bar area, outdoor spaces to enjoy, as well as dedicated work space. The Mezzanine level does have sliding doors which open out to the living room, so please be mindful that it is not childproof at all. There are aircons available throughout the house- the fireplaces are however NOT available to be used. There are many quirks throughout the home, and lots of local artwork to enjoy- making this the perfect couples retreat for friends to get away for a weekend

The Neighborhood
The Cape's rough seas in the winter months led to a formal winter anchorage in 1743 where ships would dock at Simons' Baai (present day Simon's Town). A wagon route linking Cape Town to Simon's Town went over the hill adjacent to De Oude Wjinbergh (or old wine mountain) estate where Wynberg became used as a half way point from Cape Town to Simons Town. Wynberg is bordered by Kenilworth to the north and Plumstead to the south east, Constantia is situated to its west. The suburb can also be accessed from the M3 freeway which skirts the west of the Neighborhood close to the Wynberg Military Base and popular wine farms not far from this.
Guest Access
Guests will have full access to the home as well as being able to use the front courtyard to park off-street
