The Fernery
Tsitsikamma, Garden Route, Western Cape Accommodation
Imagine sitting above a 30 metre waterfall, with breathtaking views of a river gorge and the wild Indian Ocean. This is the setting of the Fernery Lodge!
It is so magnificent and unique that it is difficult to decide whether to admire the incredible surroundings from the Lodge’s deck area with the swimming pool, jacuzzi, sauna and gym, or to enjoy it from the comfort of any one of our six deluxe suites.
Each room is light and spacious, tastefully decorated to the theme of its name, and with an understated but romantic elegance. Every effort has been made to ensure our guest’s comfort, from crisp percale linen and large luxurious bathrooms with separate bath and shower, to underfloor heating and satellite television. For complete opulence try one of the honeymoon suites with luxurious spa bath and sea view. Other features include a well stocked mini bar, electronic safe, telephone, hairdryer, tea and coffee facilities, and bath robes.

At the end of a ‘tough day relaxing’, guests can enjoy pre-dinner drinks and snacks in the Lodge lounge, before selecting a dinner wine and making their way to the Cellar Dining Room with its open fireplace and stunning Ocean view.
Stay at the Fernery Chalets and experience the Tsitsikamma as if you were the first to discover it. Secluded and nestled in fynbos along the river bank these 4 star chalets ensure a private paradise experience, with views of river pools, plantation, mountains and ocean. Enjoy the tranquillity and beauty of fynbos and bird life from the privacy of the sheltered deck or curl up in front of a log fire with a good book. The BandB chalets sleep two in either twin or king size luxury, and the self-catering chalets can sleep four, making them ideal for families
The chalet names are inspired by nature and the magnificent surroundings, and each chalet is beautifully decorated to the theme of its’ name. Great attention has been given to detail and we have aspired to provide everything for your comfort, from en suite bathrooms with both bath and shower, and crisp percale linen and mohair blankets, to a cosy sitting area with a ceramic fireplace. Other features include a well stocked mini bar, electronic safe, hairdryer, tea and coffee facilities, ceiling fan and a weber braai with wood and charcoal.
A full farm style breakfast with fruit, cereals, and eggs is served in the beautiful Fernery, and simple but stylish light meals are available throughout the day. A delicious 4 course menu d’hôte dinner is served in either the Otter’s Holt or the Lodge Restaurant, with choices such as ostrich steak, springbok carpaccio and “melktert”. You can also choose to end the day with a traditional South African barbeque - simply arrange with us beforehand and we will supply everything from the starter to the dessert.
Please note : We have intentionally not included televisions in the chalets as the general feeling is that they would disturb the peace and serenity of the magnificent setting. There is satellite television available in the games room for those who wish to use it.
If you ever tire of gazing at the view, which we doubt, the Fernery and its magnificent surroundings offer an endless array of activities. Apart from the Lodge pool, sauna, jacuzzi and gym, there is also an eight man outdoor jacuzzi overlooking the river gorge and a lovely pool and games room with satellite TV for the enjoyment of the chalet guests.
