About this property
Ballots Bay Treehouse
Ballots Treehouse is a unique beach home set in milkwood trees, perched above a protected pebble beach and the Meul river mouth. With a minimum stay of 3 nights, this haven is for nature lovers. This unique wooden cabin is private and secluded, yet surprisingly close to all modern amenities. Find yourself totally immersed in nature, while being in the comfort of a private and romantic beach house.
It's hard to imagine a more natural and serene setting than this self-catering gem, which sleeps up to 4 adults and 2 children. Ballots Bay is situated in a private nature reserve, home to a wide range of animals, birds, indigenous forests, and fynbos. After reaching the top of a 67-step wooden stairway leading up to the Ballots Treehouse, you will find three cosy, tastefully decorated bedrooms on the lower level. The main bedroom boasts a queen size bed, an en-suite bathroom, and a lavish corner bathtub. The second bedroom has a double bed, and the third bedroom is a small room with bunk beds, ideal for two children. Upstairs is a third bathroom, dining area, and fully-equipped kitchen, and an open-plan lounge that spills out onto a generous deck. Watch NetFlix movies while lounging on the comfortable leather couch in front of the fireplace on a winter's evening. Dine on the upper deck shaded by a large parasol, or relax over sunset cocktails and prepare a braai in the Weber while soaking up the uninterrupted views over the beach and river mouth.
Ballots Bay offers numerous walks and hikes that are truly spectacular. This includes a lovely stroll through the Magic Forest where you may stop for a picnic or braai in the shade. Additionally, you can cool yourself in the remote rock pools which are accessible via rocky cliff paths. Two beach BBQs located a stone's throw from the house are reserved for guests and Ballots Bay residents only. The pebble beach is the perfect place to spend the afternoon and for enthusiastic fishermen to try their luck, without the crowds. Victoria Bay, the world-class swimming and surfing beach is located only 1km to the east.
