Ellerman House

The beautiful Ellerman House overlooks the Atlantic from Cape Town’s upmarket suburb of Bantry Bay in South Africa. With just eleven rooms, two suites and a five-room villa, this is an intimate hotel occupying a former stately home. Lovely views sweep across as far as Robben Island from its vantage point high up on the slopes of Lion’s Head mountain.

The hotel retains the feel of an elegant colonial mansion, complete with an impressive art collection. With eleven rooms, two suites and a five-room villa, this luxurious hotel occupies a former stately home with over an acre of grounds.

Guests have access to a 24-hour pantry, stocked with homemade treats and snacks, while the hotel’s sommelier and chef await your instructions as to how they can cater to your needs. Organic local produce dominates the daily-changing restaurant menu, with an emphasis on modern European-style cuisine.

The tiered gardens and the solar-heated lap pool overlook the sea, while the gym boasts motivating floor-to-ceiling windows.

The Ellerman House Spa has three treatment rooms, a sauna and steam room.
