who we are?
Guests at Elephant Country Guest House near Plettenberg Bay on the scenic Garden Route in South Africa are privileged in that they can enjoy moving interactive elephant experiences with the resident five elephants who live within the bordering Elephant Sanctuary whilst enjoying the magnificence of untouched nature in the comfort of affordable luxury surroundings.
The French Victorian décor with its rich colours offers the discerning guest a stylish, modern ambience with breath-taking views over local vineyards and the majestic Tsitsikamma mountain range in the distance. Fitted with the finer comforts of today, of course, like en-suite bathrooms, wi-fi, barista like coffee stations in the rooms, you will be forgiven that you won’t waste time unpacking your bags but head straight to meet the local gentle giants.
As the sun begins to set, get ready for one of Africa’s best night skies to unfold. Without any light pollution, the stars will guide you to map out the night sky whilst listening to the sounds of silence. Then wake up and enjoy being treated to a gourmet breakfast whilst the elephants enjoy their own right next to you – you couldn’t ask for better company!
The beauty of the Elephant Country Guest House lies not only in its stylish rooms with its rich colours and five-star hospitality. The real beauty shines from the heart of its conceptualisation. This affordable luxury guesthouse was created to support and sustain five elephants who found themselves in the custody of wildlife visionary, Craig Saunders, founder and owner of three Elephant Sanctuaries throughout South Africa.
Think of abundant wildlife experiences and birdsong echoing from every tree and you might just have found your ultimate holiday destination.
At the elegant Elephant Country Guest House, we offer our guests the warmth of our hospitality.
