About this property

This charming lodge, located just a stone’s throw from the beach, is in the heart of Hout Bay and welcomes guests to experience traditional Cape hospitality. Brightwater Lodge offers a number of comfortably furnished guest rooms as well as a self catering apartment. Relax in the comfort of the spacious guest lounge or marvel at the surrounding mountains from the balcony of the apartment. After a long day of travelling, you can treat yourself to a Hydro Ozone Spa therapy treatment. Breakfast is served in the sunny breakfast corner of the lodge or can be prepared in the fully equipped kitchen of the apartment. Read a book in front of the fireplace in the guest lounge or unwind after a day of sightseeing. If you wish, you can make use of the barbecue facilities in the garden.
