Grootbos Private Lodge, Gansbaai
The Grootbos Nature Lodge is a luxury 5 star accommodation set within the natural wonderland that is Grootbos Private Nature Reserve just outside Hermanus in Gansbaai. This multi-award winning reserve is home to protected Fynbos as well as the largest Milkwood Forests in the world and has won world wide acclaim for its conservation and social responsibility programs. The Lodge is set within the fynbos and forest clad hills which overlook Walker Bay. There are 11 beautifully designed free-standing suites, 3 of which are two-bedroom family suites, welcoming children of all ages, all with masses of light, a clean contemporary feel and vast, sweeping views.
A comprehensive program of fun learning activities for the children offers adventures on the beach and at the rock pools, treasure hunts and horseback rides, all hosted by experienced guides. Other eco-friendly activities include nature drives and hikes to explore the plants and archaeological caves, birding, whale watching and even spotting the rare African Penguin.
Dinner is included in the rate at the Grootbos Nature Lodge and they take their food very seriously, so after the children are fed in the children’s kitchen and packed off to bed with the Grootbos turndown service, its time for adult time with a delectable 6 course supper menu. As much as possible at Grootbos is grown within the grounds of the hotel, and all other ingredients are locally sourced, something Duane the head chef feels passionately about.
