Description

Fynbos Ridge is set amongst fragrant Fynbos. There are spectacular mountain views and the property abounds with abundant birdlife. The secluded pool is ideal to relax and unwind, or one can enjoy the many activities in the vicinity – forest or coastal hiking trails, glorious beaches, top golf courses, whale watching ocean safaris.

Choose between a luxurious suite in the gracious Cape-style Manor House or a spacious

self-catering cottage, newly refurbished with stone bath tubs. Delicious dining and alfresco breakfasts are available, or pick your own salad from the organic vegetable garden.

Fynbos Ridge is 5-star graded with the TGCSA, and is Carbon Neutral Approved.

Food

"Brian is a superb cook"…..Guest Comment

Delicious breakfasts served in the dining room of the Country House, or alfresco on the verandah. We offer a buffet of fruit, cereal, cheeses and meats, freshly baked croissants and scones as well as full English breakfasts made to order.

In the evening, fine dining is available, made with the freshest locally sourced ingredients. Crunchy salads and sweet young vegetables, freshly picked from our organic herb and vegetable gardens. All accompanied by home made bread, straight from the oven.

Passionate chef Brian, has been awarded many "Michelin Stars" by our guests, and the menu changes daily, depending on what is fresh and in season.

Freshly cooked meals are also delivered to the cottages.

We know you will love the food at Fynbos Ridge!
