Michelle and Stephen Granger
Robin’s Nest is a home from home – a self-contained cottage in quiet leafy surroundings with appealing outdoor living options. Parking right at your own private entrance and close proximity to Cape Town’s essential places to visit are other reasons Robin’s Nest guests just keep coming back, year after year.
We have lived in Cape Town all our lives and plan to keep it that way! Michelle is passionate about art, theatre, books, markets and cooking, while Stephen is an environmental manager and keen mountain walker and trail runner. We love to share our ideas and knowledge of Cape Town to help you get the most from your visit.
A sunrise or evening stroll to Rondebosch Common is a great way to start or end the day in this family-friendly neighbourhood, joining dog-walkers and kite-flyers on the 40 hectare nature reserve and national monument. You might end the day with a “theatre and dinner” experience at our local theatre or music concert at the famous Alma Café, or simply relaxing at the poolside with a barbecue or “braai” at home.
