Grootbos Private Nature Reserve
About Grootbos Private Nature Reserve
Grootbos Private Nature Reserve is an award-winning eco-reserve set above Walker Bay, less than two hours from Cape Town and close to the southernmost tip of Africa. Magnificently positioned on a landscape between mountains, forest and sea, Grootbos is a supreme nature escape where environmentalists lead 4x4 drives, horse and hiking trails through forests and fynbos, coastal walks, seasonal whale-watching, and boat tours to view seals, white sharks and African Penguins. Luxurious accommodation is provided at a choice of lodges: Rebuilt in 2022, the state-of-the-art Garden Lodge is set in a Milkwood forest above the coastline, while the contemporary Forest Lodge - accessed via a magical forest, lords it on a hillside and grants the most breathtaking views of fynbos and sea. Grootbos also has two Private Villas providing a luxurious and fully serviced home-away-from-home for guests in search of that extra bit of seclusion. Graded as a 5-Star Premium, Grootbos is a superb blend of fine lodgings, food of feast proportions and nature at her very best.
Children: All ages at Garden Lodge; 12+ at Forest Lodge
TGCSA Grading: Five-Star Premium
