About the host

Hosted by Wendy Anderson

Host profile image
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.

What makes this property unique

What truly sets Bayside Cottage apart is the experience we aim to create for every guest. We pride ourselves on offering more than just a place to stay—we’ve created a space that feels like home. From the moment you walk in, you’ll notice the care and attention to detail, designed to make your stay as relaxing and memorable as possible.

Whether it's unwinding in the cozy lounge with a board game, enjoying a homemade pizza from the wood-fired oven, or simply soaking in the ocean views from the balcony, we want every moment to feel special. We love creating a welcoming environment where guests can slow down, reconnect, and feel completely at ease. That’s the heart of Bayside Cottage—and it’s what we hope you’ll take with you long after your stay.
