Based in the grand Earl’s Dyke Manor (dating from 1929), this splendid place is set in a secluded nature reserve a short walk from the Camps Bay strip. Rooms range from those with dark wooden furniture, Turkish rugs and free-standing Victorian bath in the manor, to open-plan contemporary spaces with private decks nuzzling the treetops.
Choose between rooms in either the main house or the contemporary Deck House and Villas, reached by a rope bridge over a ravine. There's a spa and four pools, including one fed by a stream from Table Mountain.
