How To Get To Ambleside House
From the N2
From the N2 highway take the M52 off-ramp sign posted as Pinelands . On
Forest Drive, the main road that runs through the suburb, turn left at
the BP petrol station (1km along Forest Drive) into St Stephens Road.
Go through the small traffic circle and at the stop street at the end
of the park 100m further on, turn left. At the stop street at the end
of the park, you will see Broadwalk directly in front of you.
Ambleside House is Number 9 Broadwalk, the 5th house on the right. Please
buzz the intercom with the green light.
From Cape Town International Airport N2 Highway
From the airport, follow the signs towards Cape Town. You will be on the
N2 highway and you will pass 2 large cooling towers and power station
on the right side.
Remain in the left lane. Shortly after this, the road bends to the right
(there is a golf course on the left) so watch out for the sign that says
Pinelands M52.
Take this off ramp, the road swings to the left and you pass over the
N2 highway you have just been on. You will come to a set of traffic lights
with a hospital on your left (Vincent Pallotti).
Go through this intersection, over the railway bridge and at the bottom
of the incline, turn left. This is Forest Place. Immediately you will
be confronted with a choice of three roads.
Take the middle road, Acacia Way. This road bears right immediately, cross
over Peak Drive and the next intersection is Broadwalk.
Turn right into Broadwalk and Ambleside House is the 4th property on the
left. It is a thatch roofed house with a gable. Please buzz the intercom
with the green light.
From the City
You will leave Cape Town on Eastern Boulevard (M3) heading towards Muizenberg,
Somerset West and the airport. Travel at 80km/h as there are speed traps
on this highway.
As you come around the mountain past Groote Schuur hospital, the highway
splits into 2. The 2 right lanes head toward the Southern Suburbs and
Muizenberg, while the 2 left lanes head towards the airport.
You should be in the left lanes, carry on for a couple of kms and just
as the highway begins to bend to the right, there is an off ramp marked
Pinelands M52.
Take this off ramp and you will come to the same set of traffic lights
beside the Vincent Pallotti hospital (see directions above).
From the N1 Highway
If you come in on the N1 from the direction of Paarl, you will pass Century
City / Canal Walk the huge shopping mall on the right about 10kms short
of Cape Town.
Get in the left lane at this point the road bears right about 2 kms past
Century City and there will be a sign that says M5 Muizenberg.
Take this off ramp. There is often a line of vehicles backed up at this
off ramp so be patient. Follow the M5 for a few kms and then take the
N2 off ramp towards Somerset West and the airport.
Stay in the left lane as you don’t actually get on to the N2. As
you take the off ramp, there will be a sign that says Pinelands M52 to
the left.
This will take you off the highway and up to the same set of traffic lights
at the intersection where the Vincent Pallotti hospital is on the left.
(see directions above).
