Dear Guests
Welcome to Casa Felicé.
The house is situated on Devil's Peak or Windberg - the place of the legend of Van Hunks. It has behind it Table Mountain, the world-renowned landmark, and overlooks Table Bay to the North. The mountain slope is very exposed, forming the divide between the wet southern suburbs and those nestling against the main table in and around the City centre. It is true to its name and we are often exposed to the whimsical weather changes so characteristic of the Peninsula. Here the South Easter blows down fiercely in summer and when it dies away, the heat rising up from the city bowl can be stifling. In winter the North Wester drives in the rain and we know it is near when the cloud reaches the cave mouth on the slopes behind us. The evenings and early mornings are sometimes unbelievably quiet and serene and the vistas breathtaking.
