Sumaridge Lodge, Cape Whale Coast

Hemel-en-Aarde means heaven and earth – and the valley is aptly named. Having bought the vineyard Holly and Simon were keen that others should be able to share with them the beauty of the estate, and they transformed a former farm cottage into a gorgeous, secluded, five-room Lodge.

Most visitors stop for a delicious wine-tasting platter, paired with a glass of Sumaridge fine wine, in the cellar’s elegant tasting room, before driving through lovingly-tended vineyards down to the Lodge.

The main Lodge has four en-suite bedrooms, all with brushed-oak flooring and four poster beds; each is gently themed to an indigenous flower. The very spacious rooms also boast private patios or balconies. There is also a separate wheel-chair friendly suite with its own kitchenette.

The house is very child friendly. The décor has a contemporary feel with just a touch of Africa.

The Lodge has a spacious open plan living room and dining room with an open fire for cool Winter nights. There is a fully fitted kitchen with – not surprisingly – a well-stocked wine fridge! Holly goes on “Almost all our guests could be classed as independent travellers who appreciate the flexibility of a self-catering option, or an executive chef, as well as being able to enjoy the first class eateries both in the Valley and in Hermanus.”

There is much to do without even leaving the estate, with hiking through the fynbos, mountain biking, fishing and bird watching – the estate boasts several breeding pairs of blue crane – the national bird of South Africa.
