About Lairds Lodge Country Estate

This gracious Cape Dutch-style homestead is set on a 24-acre estate, offering mountain views, wide open spaces and a secluded swimming pool. The high-ceilinged elegantly decorated rooms convey a feeling of tranquillity and include cushioned comfort, air-conditioning, percale linen, quality toiletries and TV's. It is perfectly positioned to explore the Garden Route, from the Wilderness to the Tsitsikamma forests. Superb breakfasts and convivial gourmet dinners, specialising in seafood and game dishes, are served in the colonial dining rooms or the cosy wine cellar. At night, courtyards and verandas, alight with blazing braziers, and the intimate cognac lounge create a truly South African experience. TGCSA 4-Star Country House | Special whale season rates

Guest Impressions

Staying at Lairds Lodge Country Estate

"On arrival we were met promptly by staff who whisked us through our allocated room in no time at all. The room was spacious & the facilities adequate for our needs The evening talks were interesting - one related to wine & the other a demo by the chef who had our mouths watering at the thought of tasting the food that was prepared. The guests were talkative & we had interesting at length conversations whilst sitting around the main central table. The food was always of a high quality & presented to the table in a simple decorated eye catching manner. The portions were just correct in size . Breakfast was also very well presented with an adequate choice of food to start the day on The staff were always cheery & ever so helpful in attending to our needs. I would recommend Lairds who wants a quiet relaxing time out in the countryside"
