Description
With dramatic views of the pounding Indian Ocean, Plettenberg Park's Lake House also overlooks the calm lake shore of an inland wild duck sanctuary, offering privacy and tranquillity that knows no parallel. It is situated within the most exclusive private nature reserve in the Cape and is set high on the majestic cliffs of this dramatically beautiful coastline. Plettenberg Park is an all-weather hotel, swathed in sunshine during the summer, equally splendid in winter, with log fires ablaze, keeping you cosily at the centre of the wild and spectacular surrounds.

Wide open spaces play an important role at Plettenberg Park's Lake House, not only in terms of the panoramic vistas across the Indian Ocean and the sprawling savannah behind, but also within the hotel itself. The Lake House architecture is refreshingly simple, with high ceilings and a skylight running the length of the extended entrance hall, wall-to-wall windows and wide terraces. The decor - airy understated Afro-Colonial - uses only natural materials in neutral earthy tones and crisp whites. The rooms are large and well appointed, offering spectacular views.

The palate is there to be tantalised and indulged, which is why Plettenberg Park specialises in world-class cuisine, treating guests to good food, good wine and personal hospitality. Our chef and catering staff will happily create a menu around your specific tastes. In fact, the real beauty of spending your vacation at Plettenberg Park lies in the unique concept of having your entire holiday planned solely around your needs. All of our staff are here to indulge you and have been chosen for their natural willingness to be of assistance.
