Although there is a drought around the Cape at the moment, Bamboo was a lush, tropical hideout and perfect getaway in contrast everywhere else on our holiday. Every aspect of the grounds is carefully thought on in its own quirky way. Old "Singer" sewing machines and vintage typewriters surrounded by vegetation, line the wooden pathways that connect all of the individual accommodation locations. We stayed in one of the honeymoon suites that featured a stone bath and huge bed. Every feature of the room was individual and bespoke. We arrived late in the evening and rather than venture into town for dinner, the owner offered to cook for us on the open fire in the lounge. The steak was perfect and the accompaniments were just what we needed after a long drive. The rooms are private and comfortable, and the breakfast is simple and freshly prepared to order. This is not a place of pretention or of clean sharp lines and minimalism, but of charming hospitality and absolute relaxation. If you are looking for something out of the ordinary, this is it.
