Explore South Africa’s western cape in style taking in its natural wonders - some you can watch and some you can eat and drink!

Begin your holiday in the sleepy seaside town of Hermanus with three nights at super-luxurious Birkenhead House. The perfect destination for those seeking the epitome of stylish seaside living, this boutique hotel offers superb service and incredible views over the Atlantic. Hermanus is world-renowned as ’the’ place to spot southern right whales from July to November.

A short and pleasant coastal drive will bring you to Grootbos, a unique-concept, family-run nature reserve set on the hills above Walker Bay. Its two lodges are set amongst ancient milkwood trees overlooking a majestic sweep of coastline. While Grootbos offers the finest introduction to the cape’s indiginous flora, guests can also enjoy sightings of the ’marine five’ - dolphins, cape fur seals, African penguins, southern right whales (Jul to Nov) and great white sharks.

Wrap up your holiday with three glorious days in the heart of the winelands at Klein Genot Wine and Country Estate. This owner-managed luxury guesthouse nestes beneath the Franschhoek Mountains in a peaceful corner of the valley amid it own vineyards. A spa, swimming pool and beautiful gardens enhance the peaceful atmosphere while world-class restaurants and wine farms are but a short drive away.
