Noordhoek
Noordhoek is one of Cape Town's unspoilt gems.
Once the vegetable farming lands that supplied the ships docking in Table Bay, it has kept its unhurried, pristine rural feel, where horses graze on the open common, dogs accompany their owners to the farmstall, grassy verges replace pavements and clear night skies are lit up with a thousand stars.
Surrounded by the magnificent Silvermine Mountain range, and its sentinel, Chapman's Peak, the 6km long Noordhoek Beach stretching across the valley to Kommetjie, and the natural wetlands & lakes, Noordhoek has been able to retain its unique country feel.
Noordhoek is proudly listed as a conservancy village, working for the protection of its pristine beauty for the enjoyment of all. One of our special claims to fame is the rare spotted leapard toad that enjoys endangered species protection in our valley.
We at Pooh Corner strive to support our beautiful valley too. Home grown fruit and veggies, free-range eggs, home made jams, preserves and other delights, organic gardening methods, water saving and energy saving systems and support for our local small businesses are high on our priority list.
Visitors to Noordhoek will enjoy the following attractions within a 5km radius:
