Location

Claremont is situated in the Southern Suburbs of Cape Town, on the Eastern slopes of Table Mountain and Devil’s Peak. The area is a centre of educational and sporting focus; the University of Cape Town and several prominent schools are nearby. The Newlands Cricket and Rugby stadiums are adjacent to our meeting place at the Kelvin Grove Club, Campground Road. The world-renowned Kirstenbosch Gardens is nearby. In recent years, the suburb of Claremont has become a fast-growing business centre.
