CUISINE
- FEAST ON THE EXPERIENCE
Knowing that our guests have enjoyed an active day in the fresh
air is all the encouragement needed to provide the perfect meal
to end a perfect day. Drawing inspiration from the abundance
of scents and colours in nature around them, our chefs conjure
up magical combinations that replenish and inspire body and
soul. Fish caught on the day, succulent meats and fresh home-grown
vegetables are enhanced with flavours from our flourishing herb
garden.
"NEW
GUESTS!” is the cheerful call often heard in
the lodge at Grootbos. Greeted with a smile and welcomed with
a glass of fine South African sparkling wine, guests at Grootbos
are made to feel instantly special.
Two
lodges, one great experience! The classic Garden Lodge set in
a lush indigenious surrounding is the ideal family getaway.
The new Forest Lodge with its contemporary and modern style
appeals to the cosmopolitan traveller.
Feel
welcome at a truly unique place where conservation and relaxation
have found the perfect home.

DISCOVER
- SATURATE YOUR SENSES
Experience nature like never before. Let our expert guides introduce
you to the wonders of the fynbos. Discover the fascinating relationships
between the insects, birds, mammals and flowering plants of
this diverse ecosystem. Smell the aromatic wild herbs, watch
for exquisite birds and be awed by the scenery that surrounds
you.
Take
a meandering path through an ancient Milkwood forest, where
thousand-year-old trees send exploratory branches in search
of sunlight, or visit one of the remnant Afro-montane forests
on the reserve. Young and old can explore this natural wonderland
on foot or by four-wheel drive vehicle, or take a horse ride
to enjoy the views from the elevation of a comfortable saddle
on a well schooled horse or pony.
MARINE
- EYE TO EYE WITH OCEAN GIANTS
Our coastline offers a marine experience like no other. See
40-ton Southern Right Whales only metres from your boat (visit
sharkwatchsouthafrica.com and whalewatchsouthafrica.com to see
more). Travel to the island refuge of huge sea bird colonies
and admire the underwater antics of a 60 000 strong Cape Fur
Seal colony. Be amazed by the awesome spectacle of a great white
shark breaking the surface and transfixing you with an unblinking
stare.
The
cliffs of Walker Bay, right at our doorstep, offer the best
land based whale viewing in the world. Watch spellbound as mothers,
calves and energetic bulls come to within 30 metres of the rocky
shoreline.


FLORA
- AN ADVENTURE FOR THE WHOLE FAMILY
Families discover countless adventures in a world with a wealth
of treasures. It may be found in a beach excursion filled with
a host of fun and games or an exciting boat trip to visit seals,
penguins and the humbling giant of the ocean, the Southern Right
Whale (Visit sharkwatchsouthafrica.com and whalewatchsouthafrica.com
to see more).
If
you prefer to stay firmly land-based, a rich choice of nature
based activities are available. Children help feed the animals
and enjoy riding lessons on the paddock and outrides through
the reserve.

STORIES WITH YOU
THE CAPE'S FLORAL ENVIRONMENT
... is one of a kind. Nowhere else is plant life more diverse.
Grootbos Nature Reserve conserves 1700 hectares of pristine
fynbos, the Cape’s unique vegetation type. Within our
borders lies a wealth of more than 650 species of indigenous
plants. Huge stands of extravagant proteas paint the hillsides
and bulbs burst into flower after fire. Pollination, seed dispersal
and germination - there is always something happening and a
story to be told. Our expert botanical guides will open your
eyes to the intricacies of the fynbos ecosystems and leave you
with another lasting impression of the wonders of nature.
