IN A NUTSHELL
An eclectic mix of traditional cottages and contemporary boathouses that keep within the strict regulations that make Stanford so charming. The accommodation at Coot Club does nothing to detract from the natural environment. The Boathouses in particular make the most of the magnificent views across the lagoon to the imposing Maanschynkop mountains.
With a nod to the sailing fraternities; the Boathouses, Port, Starboard and Stern, are fabulous nautical-themed homes ideal for relaxed holidays on the water. Lawns, Leeward Large and Leeward Suites (previously known as the Stone Cottages) retain the charm of a typical hideaway tucked into the Milkwood forests with beautiful outdoor seating areas.
Special SADC rates are available. Enquire with Reservations for more details.
