Colonial tranquility in a large indigenous garden of water and birdsong.

 

All rooms have separate entrances and are as sociable or private as one may wish to be.

 

The sumptuous Honeymoon Loft suite has a large private sitting room with doors to an elevated tree top deck and an enormous bedroom with half poster bed, wood burning fire and full bathroom with roll top bath.

 

The Honeymoon Garden Cottage is tucked under trees in a secluded part of the gardens and has a large private deck with attached undercover terrace. The bedroom is large with a king size bed, private sitting room area with wood burning fire and a luxurious full bathroom has an enormous handmade bath.

 

Each cottage room is equipped with a flat screen colour TV, original local artworks, tea and coffee making facilities, ceiling fan, wall heater, iPod docking radio clock and bar fridge. The private terrace, deck or courtyard garden is a perfect place, after a day filled with all the excitement the Garden Route has on offer, to relax and enjoy a cold drink while taking in the many bird varieties the garden attracts.

 

A full English breakfast is served on the deck in our very own piece of original Knysna forest or cosy breakfast room.

 

Guests are invited to lounge in the poolside Boma in a corner of the gardens, where evenings spent around the Boma's firepit are a treat with the option of a traditional braai (barbeque).
