Redefining elite seaside holidays in Cape Town is 5* Rodwell House in the sun-soaked village of St James. It nestles between the Kalk Bay Mountains and False Bay, world famous for whale-watching, warm sea bathing and a sheltered Mediterranean climate. Enjoy finest wine and food pairings plus lively local café life.
Secluded within a walled acre of pristine gardens yet only a stroll away from seductive day- and night-time activity, Rodwell is 10 minutes from top vineyards and gold medal restaurants, only 20 minutes from either CBD or Cape Point, and light-years away from boredom or tour groups. This is a luxurious and intimate destination, both revitalising and nurturing.
Furnished impeccably, guests luxuriate in suites providing unashamed comfort and privacy. Leisure rooms, terraces, gym, boulle field and swimming pool fed by a mountain stream are on offer. Sophisticated technology ensures global communication and fingertip entertainment.
A wine and food extravaganza beckons. The cellar is world class, matched with the freshest of seasonal cuisine. Sun and gentle sea breezes whet the appetite. Take an energising mountain stroll or a refreshing dip in the tidal pool below the gardens, and then dine on freshly grilled lobster with an aged Montrachet.
Rodwell holidays are like none other, invigorating yet relaxed a complete break from routine.
