Frequently Asked Questions
Is the lodge directly on the Cliff Path or beach?
No.
The lodge is positioned across Hermanus Main Road from the Cliff Path. The Cliff Path runs along the coastline above the beach, providing easy access to the ocean and coastal walks without the lodge being directly on the path itself.
How do guests access the Cliff Path and beach?
Guests simply cross Hermanus Main Road to reach the Cliff Path. From the Cliff Path, there are several access points down to the beach along the coastline.
Does the Main Road cause heavy traffic or congestion near the lodge?
No significant congestion occurs near the lodge.
While Hermanus Main Road is a main thoroughfare, traffic funnel points and pile-ups occur further up the road, well away from the lodge. In front of the lodge, traffic generally flows smoothly rather than backing up.
Is there traffic noise?
Traffic levels vary depending on time of day and season. As with any main town road, some traffic noise may be noticeable, particularly during busier daytime periods. Evenings and nights are generally quiet, and most guests find the accommodation comfortable.

Yes.
