Facilities at Otter's Bend Lodge |
|
Otter's Barrel, the large open communal room, serves as the
meeting place for all the Otter's guests.
It is dominated by a huge (36,000 litre) oak wine vat as
well as a chunk of yellowwood which serves as the large table top. You will
hear firsthand what others have enjoyed in the valley - be it wine tasting,
restaurants, hiking, activities or places of interest.
The room is equipped for self-caterers with cutlery, crockery, fridge,
microwave, kettle, hot plate and kitchen utensils. An old traditional wood
burning stove adds charm to the atmosphere as well as flavour to any meal. If
you wish to cook on an open fire, make use of the huge fireplace or braai
facilities.
"We very much enjoyed the evenings and afternoons around the BIG table. Thank
you for the bikes, the braai, the conversations, the perfect location
..........." Arne & Michaela

Relaxation at Otter's Bend Lodge |
|
The Otter enjoys nothing better than watching guests unwind
and relax at the end of a day of sight seeing, or a day's travel. The ‘local orchestra' of moving water and rustling leaves
helps all guests slip into relaxed mode.
Some start the day with a jog or a walk down Dassenberg Road or round the 5km circular
route, while others attempt to conquer the Franschhoek Pass
on bikes. Other health/fitness activities nearby include dip-pools, walking,
jogging, cycling, health and skincare clinics, spas.
