I arrived late in the afternoon without having booked any accommodation for the night. I was fortunate to have contacted Swallows Nest as not only was the accommodation excellent but the rates were super competitive. It was quite cold in the evening and what better way to warm up the evening then to have your own fire place!! I will use this as my default accommodation when visiting Tsitsikamma again..a lovely place to stay!!!

We stayed in one of the family rooms which we found very clean and comfortable. The desk staff were helpful and answered all our questions on the activities the area. As it was off season there were only another six people staying there I cannot have any further comments about the other facilities offered.

Storms River Guest Lodge

Storms River Guest Lodge is located in the peaceful village of Storms River, in the heart of the Tsitsikamma, which forms part of the Garden Route. Tsitsikamma is a Khoi/Nama word meaning 'place of abundant water.' The region is bordered at the north by the Tsitsikamma Mountains and in the south by the Indian Ocean. The village is surrounded by natural occurring indigenous forest, Fynbos and commercial plantations. This charming lodge is a Bed and Breakfast (which is suitable for small and large groups), consisting of a double story building with 14 spacious, en-suite rooms. The top story has a large veranda that offers panoramic views of the Storms River Mountain Peak and the tranquil lodge gardens. Other facilities include a private swimming pool that the whole family can enjoy.In addition, the lodge is in close proximity to a variety of exciting activities that cater to both the adventurous, and those looking to put their feet up for a relaxing break. The area also hosts a number of meandering hiking trails, the Tree Top Canopy Tours; Black Water Tubing; mountain biking; segways and horse riding. The area also boasts the highest commercial bungee jump at Bloukrans Bridge. The Storms River Mouth - with its spectacular shoreline - is the start of the famous Otter Hiking Trail and is situated in the Tsitsikamma National Park and is a mere 10 kilometres away. For a more relaxing experience, there is the Tsitsikamma Mountain Spa where you will be pampered. With such an abundance of natural beauty, it is hard to resist the allure of this magical place. What better place to settle in for the night, after an exhilarating day outdoors, than the Storms River Guest Lodge? Indulge in cool breezes and the sound of chirping crickets on the veranda in summer or cosy up to an intimate log fire in winter with a decadent mug of hot chocolate (or even an indulgent glass of red wine!). The lodge offers a little slice of heaven to everyone, and even the weariest of travellers will leave rejuvenated! Should you need any assistance during your stay, the hostess, who is also the owner, will be able to assist you with any needs you might have, and even help you to plan your activities.

Great stay, thank you

Andelomi Forest Lodge

In the heart of the Tsitsikamma Forest, surrounded by mountains and with a stream winding its way through our stunning 2 acre garden, Andelomi Forest Lodge offers local and international tourists high-quality and affordable 3-star bed & breakfast accommodation. Louise and Mike look forward to making sure that your visit to Storms River is one that you will never forget.

Pretty impressive

Reviewed By CuriousMeerkatjie

I usually only book four star rated accommodation but wanted to be very close to Storms River Mouth and decided to book at Andelomi Forest Lodge for one night. When I called to ask whether we can put our cooler box in the room prior to check-in I was assured that it will be no problem. On arrival I was surprised with the size of the room. Our room was modern with a little seating area facing a stream. The bathroom was spacious and spotless. The room had a coffee/tea station but no fridge. The design of the room and the small touches showed that the owners took the requirements of guests into consideration when they built the rooms. There are also some little extras like tissues etc. which one does not expect at this price range. Staying at Storms River Village allowed us to go back to Tsitsikamma National Park the next day to do the Waterfall Hike after completing the Kayak and Lilo adventure the day before. We had breakfast at the property the next morning. We chose to sit outside facing the garden while enjoying our breakfast. We thought it would be a buffet breakfast but we could order eggs and we were served fresh fruit - it was beautifully presented. I dealt with Brittany but the entire team seem to take pride in serving guests at this establishment. I won't hesitate to stay at Andelomi Forest Lodge again in the future.

We had a lovely stay at the Fernery. Service was great, food was delicious and the surroundings were beautiful. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay and we will be back again. even though it was a cold rainy weekend, we had a log fire burning in our room and underfloor heating which was a winner. Thanks Fernery
