Description

The Berries is situated on the southern side of Elands Bay, closest to Baboon Point and bordering the dune reserve on the beach. This is the quiet and private corner of Elands Bay, which enjoys the most wind shelter, being the closest to the mountain.

The Cabin is built entirely from recycled material and is a continual work in progress. The water-wise garden displays undisturbed indigenous vegetation, and trees which are endemic to the area. The birdlife in the garden is a pleasure to behold.

Accommodation comprises 2 bedrooms and a separate sleeping alcove, the cabin can comfortably accommodate 8 guests. The 2 bedrooms each feature a double bed, and the sleeping alcove has 4 bunk beds. Bedding and bath towels are provided, but guests need to bring their own beach towels.

Guests have access to an open-plan kitchen, dining, and living area allowing for easy, relaxed lifestyle living. The kitchen is fully equipped with an oven, stove, fridge-freezer, microwave, toaster, kettle, snackwicher and anything else you may need. A washing machine is also provided. The lounge is comfortably furnished and opens out onto the front deck. A family bathroom includes a bath and a large shower. An outdoor shower allows for rinsing off when returning from the beach.

Guests can enjoy braaing or sitting around the fire at an outdoor Boma beneath the stars.

Elands Bay offers beautiful West Coast landscapes and wildlife. The area is also rich in archaeological and natural history. Flowers in spring and crayfish in summer.
