From the Archives
We've proudly represented Grootbos Private Nature Reserve Villas since 2003. Here is a nostalgic look at their entry from our 2017 Printed Guide Book.
LODGE - STANFORD
"Only two hours from Cape Town and 30 minutes from Hermanus on the way to the world-renowned Garden Route, Grootbos is perfectly situated between the classic attractions of the Cape and is most certainly a highlight on any itinerary. Both the Garden and Forest Lodges offer panoramic views and every suite offers complete privacy. Garden Lodge lies in an indigenous garden with stone walls and a warm African ambience. Each suite is nestled between the fynbos with a private sundeck to soak up the tranquillity and view. Forest Lodge is an architectural masterpiece with a chic design that perfectly accentuates the draping branches of the surrounding milkwood forest. Relaxation is easy with a light-filled lounge, spacious bathroom, airy bedroom and large outside deck with mesmerising views over the ever-changing ocean and African sky. Creative gourmet cuisine, using home-grown organic vegetables and the freshest local produce, is complemented by fine local wines. Dedicated conservationists accompany guests daily on awe-inspiring excursions to explore the flora, fauna, bird and marine life of the area by foot, boat, horseback or in an open 4x4 vehicle. From June to December marvel at the Southern Right whales that may be viewed from the rocky cliffs, pure white beaches, by boat or light airplane. There is also a state-of-the-art conference venue for delegates looking for a luxurious location. Grootbos' core philosophy of conservation linked with social development has made it an award- winning world leader in responsible tourism. 5-Star Lodge. Garden Lodge − children of all ages welcome Forest Lodge − children 12+ welcome."
