Laird's Lodge

Jump to:

Laird's Lodge is a gracious Cape Dutch estate that speaks of welcoming tranquillity. The attentive, friendly service and fine details — from percale linens to the traditional reed ceiling in the main dining room — envelope guests in relaxed luxury.

There are several outside terraces to while away an afternoon with a glass of iced tea and a book; the inviting pool provides a wonderful environment to soak up some sunshine and the lounges provide the perfect backdrop on a cooler evening for a pre-dinner drink in front of the wood burning fireplace.

OUR OPINION:

The staff are incredibly friendly and are happy to help you plan your stay, ensuring you get the most out of your days. Laird's Lodge is perfectly positioned for exploring the entire Garden Route area, from wilderness to the Tsitsikamma forests.

OUR RATING: First Class

A drive down the dirt road to Laird's Lodge can provide challenging, but as the main house appears into view, the beautifully maintained gardens welcome you to the estate.

The restaurant offers a full dining experience from pre-dinner drinks on the veranda to a locally-influenced menu paired with Cape wines.
