What do you love most about this area?
The gorgeous Atlantic Seaboard suburb of Llandudno remains Cape Town’s best-kept secret with its exclusive enclave of 300 sought-after, sea-facing properties. With only one entrance and two world-class beaches, the total lack of commercial and sectional title activity has preserved the peace and tranquillity of this stunning little bay. While the face of the “old Llandudno”, with its wooden beach cottages, has changed over the years to be replaced with the many modern and extremely stylish homes, the community remains committed to retaining a safe and peaceful place for all, and is an exceptional place to call home.
