Kobus and Marelise are friendly and welcoming owners of Lavender Manor Guest Lodge and strive for excellence and comfort for our guests. We love nature and living by the sea is a dream come true.
Lavender Manor is situated just above famous Grotto beach with panoramic views over the beach and Walker Bay. We are within 5 minutes of the beach and famous cliff path. The area is very safe and away from the busy town centre. Relax and enjoy, listen and smell the sea.
