The Garden Route is a top holiday region in South Africa with masses to see and do. If you’re the kind of traveller who wants complete freedom to explore at your own pace on an easy-going family holiday and to dine in or out on a whim and when you please, it makes sense to self-cater. Choose your Garden Route holiday spot from our selection of upmarket self-catering cottage and villa accommodation.
PLETTENBERG BAY AREA
Situated along the coastline of the Garden Route, Plettenberg Bay is one of the most-visited holiday hotspots in South Africa. The area lays claim to idyllic beaches, rivers and estuaries, the Robberg peninsula and nature reserve – it’s not surprising that it was named ‘beautiful bay’, centuries ago, by Portuguese explorers.
In addition to its bed and breakfast accommodation, Fynbos Ridge has one self-catering garden cottage on the property, surrounded by a nature reserve.
At Hog Hollow Country Lodge at The Crags, there is one 3-bedroom villa in addition to guest suites. The villa is a double-storey home-from-home set on the Hog Hollow private nature reserve. Facilities include a lounge with fireplace, outdoor leisure decks and infinity pool, games room, kitchen and dining areas.
Scallop Lodge and Starfish Lodge are available on a per-room basis, or on a sole-use basis for upmarket self-caterers.
Robberg Beach Lodge is a collection of four distinctive villas primely positioned at Robberg Beach. Guests can select bed and breakfast accommodation if they please, or choose the self-catering apartment accommodating four people.
The Plettenberg – part of the McGrath Collection of hotels – is a premier accommodation choice, located on a rocky headland with spectacular ocean views. For guests in search of complete privacy, The Lookout Villa and The Beach House are excellent options. The Lookout Villa is an exclusive 190m2, three-bedroom villa with its open-plan lounge and dining area, a kitchen, private swimming pool and garden, and plenty of comfort throughout. The Beach House is a 150m2 two-bedroom villa with large sitting room with fireplace, a dining room, kitchen and private swimming pool.
