Special hotel on Walker Bay<\/h2>\n

Whalesong Lodge<\/strong> is a small intimate guest house, located at the top of the rugged coastal cliffs of The Cellars and overlooking the scenic bay of Walker. \u00a0 The 5 spacious modern rooms are carefully but stylishly decorated and have their own small balcony with beautiful sea views. The en-suite bathrooms with underfloor heating, separate bath and shower are elegant and functional. Fall asleep at night with the sound of whales singing and wake up in the morning to the sound of rolling waves. Because the lodge is decorated as a real house, there is no restaurant here. The living room has large french doors that open onto the wooden terrace. Open the doors and enjoy the fresh sea air that flows in. Breakfast is done in the large open kitchen or in good weather on the terrace but don’t forget to observe the whales playing. For the cooler months there is a cosy fireplace and a good selection of South African red wines.<\/p>\n

Close to the whales<\/h2>\n

Swimming in the pool or in the sea in a small bay. Endless walking on the deserted beach of the nature reserve De Plaat. From the cliffs whale watching or close to the beach. Cage diving with the great white shark or riding through the fynbos.
\nAt the Whalesong Lodge there is a lot to do all day.<\/p>\n
