Description

Whalesong Lodge, a small intimate guesthouse perched on top of the rugged De Kelders Cliffs, overlook the picturesque Walker Bay with the coastline stretching from the white sand dunes of “Die Plaat" past Hermanus, all the way to Cape Point.

The 5 spacious open-plan rooms are thoughtfully yet stylishly decorated, each with sea view and a small private balcony to take in the fresh sea air. The en-suite bathrooms, with underfloor heating, separate bath and shower are elegant and functional.

The large comfortable open-plan lounge and dining room lead out to a wooden deck, ideal to watch the whales that play only metres from the shore. For the cooler months there is a cosy fireplace and a good selection of South African Red Wines. The wooden deck leads to a small pool but if one prefers to swim in the sea there are a number of small coves within easy walking distance.

Breakfast is lovingly prepared and served in an informal surrounding and with a stunning view over Walker Bay. With Gansbaai’s fishing harbour only minutes away, there is an ample supply of fresh seafood. We previously owned a small hotel in the Cape Winelands so we have tasted and collected the best wines of the area to be savoured by our guests.

De Kelders is situated in the Overberg region on the Cape Southwest coast, only 2 hours from Cape Town past the quaint village of Stanford just before the fishing village of Gansbaai world renowned for its Great White Sharks. De Kelders Is north facing and one of the few places on the Cape Southwest Coast where you are able to watching the sun set over the sea while enjoy sundowners. When you sit on the deck you are sheltered by the house from the prevailing summer off-shore wind. There is no place in South Africa where you are able to watch the whales from the shore, as you do from the De Kelders cliffs.
