: Woodall Country House and Spa is a five star Boutique Hotel set amongst peaceful citrus, a mere 45 minutes from Port Elizabeth, and neighbour to the malaria-free Addo Elephant National Park. The establishment was developed from the original farmhouse built in the early 1900’s and the charming ambience and character of yesteryear still permeate the atmosphere. Old world attention to detail blends seamlessly with contemporary African luxury and style as reflected in the raw, earthy magnificence of the architecture. This award-winning boutique hotel caters for the discerning traveller by offering five star luxury and standards of service, reflected in attention to detail and spacious accommodation. It is the ideal base from which to explore the adjacent Addo Elephant Park, and nearby game reserves such as Schotia, Amakhala, Pumba, Kwantu and Elephant Back Safaris. Honeymooners are specially pampered in an environment of peace and privacy. Accommodation Opening on to the fresh sight and scent of lush gardens, the rooms at Woodall are as seeped in luxury as they are in comfort. Each room is spacious, private, and equipped with every convenience from climate control to internet access. Other features include private verandas, en-suite bathrooms, invigorating outdoor showers, mini-bars, sumptuous furnishings, crisp percale linen, bathrobes, telephones, electronic safes and CD players. Each room is individually designed, making use of natural materials, raw silks, and fascinating décor items collected by the South African owners, on their world travels. Some rooms reflect a bygone era of indulgent romance, some echo authentic colonial style, while the more modern suites boast an Afro-chic feel that blends traditional colours and styles with sophisticated contemporary flair. Dining This exclusive hideaway is renowned for its gourmet cuisine, which is inspired by the flavours of local ingredients. Karoo venison, freshly caught East Coast fish, home-made stocks, newly-baked bread, and local cheeses all form part of the irresistible menu on offer. The chef’s creative genius is inspired by the unique flavours of freshly picked produce from Woodall’s own herb and vegetable gardens. Complementing the menu is the Diner’s Club Platinum award winning cellar, boasting a unique and comprehensive collection of fine South African wines, personally selected by the owner. The thatched waterside sitting and dining area creates an enchanted mood for savouring sundowner snacks, cocktails, moonlit dinners and after-dinner drinks and cigars, with glimpses of rare South African waterbirds. Packed breakfasts, picnics, lunches, healthy spa cuisine and specific meal requests are keenly accommodated by the Woodall kitchen. Spa and Gym The Spa, a sanctuary for utter relaxation, rejuvenation and indulgence flows onto a salt water pool, fringed with palms and a waterfall. Enveloped in a warm cocoon of soft music and calming fragrances, guests are thoroughly pampered and gently coaxed into a state of absolute well-being. Local therapists with world class skills offer a comprehensive range of massage, health and beauty treatments, and every detail is dedicated to 5 star luxury and comfort. Refreshing beverages, such as home made lemon juice, and healthy cuisine complement the totally rejuvenating experience. Facilities include vitality studios, a couples therapy room, relaxation room, nail bar, steam shower, sauna, hydrotherapy bath and spacious double showers. The spacious gym houses cutting edge cardiovascular and strength training equipment. |
