This charming thatched guesthouse is situated 200m from the beach in the quaint West Coast fishing village of Paternoster, an easy 90 minute drive from Cape Town. Uninterrupted views of the ocean can be enjoyed from two of the intimate guest suites and from the superbly positioned dining area. The third suite has a delightful partial view of the sea. Relax and unwind in the private spacious, airy rooms and enjoy a leisurely scrumptious breakfast which includes but not limited to homemade bread, cakes and scones.

Sit on your private balcony, sip some locally produced wine and soak in the picture-perfect sunsets. Enjoy a leisurely stroll on the beach or for the more energetic, climb the 97 steps to the top of the Lighthouse on Castle Rock in the Cape Columbine Nature Reserve.

Gilcrest Place has one of the best-rated locations in Paternoster! Couples particularly like the location — they rated it 9.8 on trip advisor for a two-person trip. Call Dee or Andy to make reservations.
