Chambery is a four-star graded guesthouse situated in Upper Kenilworth in a lush tranquil garden where birdsong abounds. We offer luxury accommodation in our two guest cottages, which are sumptuously decorated, and it is conveniently situated for both business and holiday travelers. The area itself is in a very quiet “pocket” in Kenilworth where little traffic noise is experienced.
Chambery has a country feel yet is only minutes away from major shopping centres, Newlands Cricket and Rugby stadiums and 15 minutes from Green Point Stadium, the city centre and beaches. It has easy access to the peninsula's tourist attractions and the many golf courses.
The two beautifully appointed guest cottages are totally private in the large grounds. Each has an individual private area in the garden to sit and relax and unwind. A substantial "continental" breakfast is served either in the main house dining room or in each individual cottage. The cottages are also let out on a self-catering basis. There is a large salt water swimming pool and patio exclusively for guests' use. One cottage is wheelchair friendly.
Cottage 1
Situated at the end of the expansive driveway this cottage is the larger of the two. It comprises of a large living room area to which is annexed a small but comfortable dining room which can be doubled up as a workplace.
The cottage is furnished with either a King-size or twin beds upon request and has multi channel Satellite TV, wireless internet and a cosy fireplace making for all round comfort. The rooms are heated and supplied with fans, heaters, hairdryers and heated towel rails. The tastefully decorated bathroom is fitted out with a Victorian slipper bath, under floor heating. This cottage is fitted out with a separate kitchen which is fully equipped with hob and stove together with the usual kitchen appliances that guests necessarily require.
Some of the Guest Book comments read as follows:
"The most amazing and relaxing accommodation really anyone could ever want when leaving home. It’s a home away from home"
"Lovely cottage, quiet. Wish we could retire here!"
"Our second extended stay in the delightful cottage. Even more enjoyable than last year if that were possible!"
Cottage 2
This cottage is the more modern of the two and incorporates a kitchenette with fridge, microwave, toaster and teacoffee facilities. The studio “ambiance” is special and unique with the cottage being situated in the garden itself with its' own private patio running the length of the cottage together with built-in barbecue facilities which overlook the garden and the mountains in the distance.
