Lovely guest house on the outskirts of the town

We really enjoyed our stay at Milkwood Lodge. We had a lovely large room right next to the pool. Breakfast was delicious. Fresh fruit, yoghurts, cereals, pancakes and a cooked English breakfast. The owner was very helpful. She gave us directions to a wine store so that we could purchase the local wine. She also made dinner reservations for us.

Rilassante Hermanus

Abbiamo soggiornato 2 notti in questo lodge. Al check in ci è stata assegnata una camera nell'abitazione principale che purtroppo è sulla strada principale e abbastanza rumorosa. Il giorno seguente la gentilissima proprietaria ci ha alloggiato in uno dei cottage molto tranquillo e con una splendita veduta delle montagne. Ambiente molto pulito e ottima colazione.

Pleasant stay and helpful staff

We had an excellent stay at Milkwood Lodge. The owner, Linda was very friendly and gracious to help my family to stay longer as myself and my daughter went for shark cage diving past the checkout time and my wife and son had to stay for that time for us to return back. She offered a ride for them to beach and their staff was very pleasant to work with. This motivated us to stay in a BnB, for our next visit.
