A Thoughtfully Curated Stay — Not Just a Place to Sleep

Designed for guests who appreciate comfort, space, and understated luxury, Goblins Creek offers beautifully appointed accommodation that feels intentional rather than incidental. Each room is individually styled, many featuring four-poster beds, log fireplaces, Victorian baths, outdoor showers, and private wood-fired hot tubs—elements rarely found in traditional B&Bs.

Luxury here is never overstated. It is felt in the glow of firelight on winter evenings, the warmth of a wood-fired tub under the stars, and the sense of complete privacy that allows guests to truly unwind.

Service is personal, the atmosphere unhurried, and the experience unmistakably boutique.

Goblins Creek is for travellers who value romance over routine, atmosphere over availability, and experience over price alone.

Why Guests Choose Goblins Creek – Guests choose Goblins Creek because it offers something increasingly rare—space, privacy, and a sense of intentional calm. Unlike typical bed-and-breakfast accommodation, every stay here is designed as an experience rather than an overnight stop.

From private wood-fired hot tubs and outdoor showers to crackling fireplaces, four-poster beds, and individually styled rooms, Goblins Creek is created for guests who value romance, atmosphere, and authenticity over uniformity and convenience alone.

Here, there are no hurried mornings or shared corridors—only unhurried time, personal service, and the freedom to truly disconnect. It is this thoughtful attention to detail, privacy, and place that brings guests back, year after year.

Romantic Luxury, Wood-Fired Hot Tubs & Coastal Tranquillity in St Helena Bay – Just a three-minute walk from the beach, Goblins Creek is a romantic boutique guest house nestled in the peaceful fishing village of Stompneusbaai, part of St Helena Bay on the Cape West Coast. Ideally located next to Shelley Point and only 15 km from Paternoster, Goblins Creek offers couples and discerning travellers a secluded coastal escape defined by old-world charm, privacy, and indulgent comfort.

Perfect for honeymoons, anniversaries, romantic getaways, and quiet retreats, Goblins Creek combines the intimacy of a small luxury guest house with thoughtful details such as wood-fired hot tubs, outdoor showers, log fireplaces, and four-poster beds, with the surrounding garden, featuring a beautifully crafted Tree Deck and swimming pool—all designed to slow time and deepen connection.

A Romantic Retreat for Every Season – In winter, guests are welcomed into a warm open-plan living space where deep, overstuffed sofas and a crackling log fireplace invite you to curl up with a book, a glass of something warming, and the gentle hush of the West Coast beyond the windows.

In summer, light floods the house as French doors open onto a wraparound veranda and garden, perfect for lingering breakfasts and lazy afternoons. A sheltered outdoor swimming pool offers a refreshing escape on warm days, while the surrounding garden with its beautifully crafted Tree Deck provides privacy, birdsong, and sea air.
