Laura Brown
We are the largest building in Betty's Bay with panoramic sea views from every room. We are located directly on the famous Clarence Drive (R44) with the sea to our south and the mountains right behind us.
Your British hosts Laura (in the front) and David (in the kitchen) have lived in Betty's Bay for sixteen years and long to share their passion for this rural idyll with you.
Jack's is located within 2 minutes walking distance of the village centre where the Post Office, pub, hairdresser and laundry are located as well as other restaurants and coffee shops. It's a gentle 10 min stroll the 0.5km to the main beach and just 30 minutes on the coastal footpath to the penguin colony at Stony Point.
