Goblin’s Creek boasts two light and airy garden rooms and four magnificent rooms with log fireplaces at the main house, designed for the romantic at heart. The garden rooms are in the back garden of Goblin's Creek with access through the main house. Each room has a beautiful view over the huge green garden and our rescued wildlife. These light and spacious rooms have king size beds which can be converted to two single beds. The rooms are equipped with a coffee machine, bar fridge, TV and fan. The en-suite bathroom has a shower. The fully equipped communal kitchens at the main house as well as all other amenities are at your disposal. The rooms in the main house have huge king size four-poster beds with puffy down duvet and white percale linen and of course a log fireplace. Each room has an open plan bathroom with old-fashioned ball and claw bath. The huge garden offers everyone a perfect spot to relax in the shade or in the sun after a refreshing swim in the pool. Or enjoy the beautiful view towards the sea from our tree deck. Our cozy sheltered braai-room, decorated with fishing accessories and fishing nets, is the perfect place to enjoy a braai throughout the year.
Hi there from Brett and Rosi. We started with the first guesthouse in 2001. Today we have 3 guesthouses, Goblin’s Mead in Edgemead Cape Town, Goblin’s Inn and Goblin’s Creek at the sleepy seaside fishing village of St Helena Bay at the West Coast. Our aim is to make the stay at our guesthouses an extraordinary experience. We like to offer 5 star like accommodation at 3 star prices. If necessary, bending over backwards to make our guests happy. Our FIRST and foremost house rule is MAKE YOURSELVES AT HOME We love going to flee markets and antique shops to hunt nice items to add to the guesthouse decoration. We also hold to the belief that all beings on this earth should give back in some way to the Universe. As we are big animal lovers “The Goblin West Coast Wildlife Sanctuary” was born. Many of our west coast wildlife are found injured or orphaned caused by vehicle accidents, caught in snares, or attacked by dogs and cats, to name a few. Our mission is to offer them a place of safety in a natural surrounding whilst caring for their injuries and traumas. Those guests who share our passion for animals can observe these animals while enjoying their stay at Goblin’s Creek.
