AGULHAS COUNTRY LODGE

The southern most tip of the mighty African continent is only two hours drive from Cape Town and is the place where the Atlantic and Indian oceans meet. 

The ruggedness of the area is mirrored in the name “Agulhas”, meaning “place of needles”. In keeping with this, the Agulhas Country Lodge is built from local limestone and blends beautifully into a hill overlooking the spectacular oceans.

The lodge has several relaxation areas – a cigar lounge, quaint pub with an air force/maritime theme, a TV room with paintings of shipwrecks,  a lounge area and glass clad balcony with spectacular sea views for whale watching.

The friendly staff who are very service orientated, take great pride in preparing gourmet country style dinners which are served in the romantic candlelit restaurant.
