Grootbos Private Nature Reserve *****

Grootbos is a family owned and managed property located close to the beach near Hermanus, approx 2 hours from Cape Town. There are two lodges – each with its own restaurant and pool but the most suitable for families with children is the original Garden Lodge which has wooden cottages with 1 or 2 bedrooms, a sitting room, bathroom and outdoor deck area.

There is a wide variety of activities on offer which are available for adults and children alike and is a "must" for any nature lover. Activities include horse-riding, bird-watching, guided walks through the milkwood forest or just enjoy the endless white sandy beaches. And, of course, whale watching in season (July – November).
