The Cape is known for its gorgeous sunny summers and moody rainy winters. This often means that travellers elect to visit between November and March, avoiding the wet season altogether. And yet, just 2.5 hours away from Cape Town and the Winelands is a destination where days are pretty much filled with sunshine all year round (barring a day or two here and there). Whether you are a foreign guest looking for one of South Africa’s richest and most beautiful scenic destinations, or locals looking for a quick getaway, Simbavati Cederberg Ridge is a gem that must be visited at least once.
The luxurious wilderness lodge offers a stylish ‘away-from-it-all’ experience with delicious food, warm hospitality, and adventure. Enjoy panoramic views over the natural rugged beauty of the Cederberg Mountains and the range of excursions and activities we offer.
This is the place for couples and friends to come together. Or for the solo traveller looking for a quiet retreat or personal adventure. Writers, artists and creatives will find no end to the inspiration and tranquillity that comes from this very special place on earth – this is where masterpieces are born. Adventurers will love the quiet open spaces for hiking, climbing or mountain biking.
Simbavati Cederberg Ridge has the authentic ambience of a modern African farmhouse. Inviting interiors with vaulted ceilings, wooden beams and natural textures give a light and airy feel. Large French windows open to a generous covered stoep and dining deck overlooking the indigenous grasses and mountains beyond.
With 11 spacious rooms and suites, restaurant with a view, spa, two swimming pools and indigenous gardens flowing into the veld, this luxury retreat offers space and style in the middle of a vast open wilderness.
The lodge overlooks the natural fynbos area of the 3,000h farm with the Cederberg Wilderness Reserve beyond. There’s a range of walking and mountain bike trails from the lodge, so no need to get into your car while you stay.
