Our flights in to Cape Town were brought forward by 24 hours and the Airbnb we had booked for our holiday was already occupied for our night of arrival, so we needed somewhere else to stay. We are so glad that we chose White Lodge as it was absolutely perfect! Our flight landed at 6am so we arrived at the guest house during breakfast service. The staff couldn't have been more helpful, offering us drinks and breakfast and making us comfy. We spent the morning sat by the lovely pool, and although check in wasn't until 3pm and they were fully booked the night before, they still managed to get our rooms ready by 10:30am! The rooms were great, with a large, very comfortable bed, spacious shower room with powerful shower, and opening out on to the very pretty courtyard. We did a wine tasting at the nearby Beau Constantia vineyard (spectacular views and great wines) in the afternoon and in the evening wandered down to the Cattle Baron restaurant (really excellent steaks) at the retail complex about half a mile away. We ended our evening with a night cap in from the honesty bar at the guest house. Breakfast was excellent. Constantia is a very elegant suburb of large houses with the centre of Cape Town being only a short and very cheap Uber ride away. We will definitely stay here again next time we visit Cape Town.
