Cape Town
Redefining elite seaside holidays in Cape Town is the 5* Rodwell House, situated 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.
Secluded within a walled acre of pristine gardens yet only a stroll away from seductive day and night-time activity, including top vineyards and gold medal restaurants, this is both a luxurious and intimate destination.
There are wide terraces and public rooms to relax in, while enjoying stunning sea views through arches and windows or while dining al fresco. Period fireplaces and other features abound, and a magnificent teak staircase leads guests from the panelled entrance hall to the upper floor leading onto the bedroom suites. There is also a swimming pool fed by a mountain stream.
After a day of exploring the area, a true wine and food extravaganza beckons. The cellar is world class, matched with the freshest of seasonal cuisine.
Guests can luxuriate in impeccably furnished suites providing unashamed comfort and privacy.
Calm, modern and sophisticated, these open-plan suites offer unrivalled space, echoed by the fine views of sea or mountain. Even the state-of-the-art bathrooms have stunning views. Gentle earth tones, old teak and mahogany features, and top quality natural fabrics create a serene and tranquil mood. There are comfortable couches and chairs, with fine curtain finishes and blinds, and superb quality king-sized beds.
