A garden cottage,
750m from the sea.

Timber Alley is a rustic timber cottage set in a lush garden — close enough to walk to the beach, quiet enough to feel like you've left everything behind.

The story

Named for the path, not just the timber.

Timber Alley takes its name from the walk it sits on — a quiet garden path linking a rustic timber cottage to the coast. You won't wake up with sea spray on the windows, but you're close enough to be on the sand in minutes, and far enough to hear only birdsong and leaves.

The cottage itself keeps things simple and warm: real timber character inside and out, built for two, and a garden that does most of the decorating for us.

"Garden calm, beach close by."

By day

Garden mornings, easy beach days

Coffee on the stoep, a stroll through the garden, then a short walk to the sand whenever you feel like it.

By evening

Braai smoke and quiet nights

As the light goes, the garden turns into your own outdoor room — fire going, string lights on, nowhere else to be.

What sets it apart

The short version.

01

Lush garden setting

Private greenery around the cottage, not just a patch of lawn — most cottages this size skip the garden entirely.

02

Your own braai area

A proper outdoor entertainment space for two, built for evenings — not an afterthought patio.

03

750m to the beach

Close enough to walk without thinking twice, far enough for real quiet at night.

04

Restaurants & shops nearby

No car required for dinner — an easy stroll from the garden gate.
