Hermanus is a seaside village on the Cape south coast of South Africa that
has been a holiday destination since its inception. Holidays are Hermanus’
raison d'être. It has been one of South Africa’s best-loved holiday spots for
over 100 years and is known as “the Riviera of the South” and “the best
land-based whale watching spot in the world”.
Many of the holiday homes in Hermanus have been
passed from generation to generation and a holiday in Hermanus is particularly
special when you stay in one of these gracious homes that are filled with a host
of memories of fun, sun, sea, sand, whales, laughter, fireside evenings, family
and friends.
Pat’s Place, one of the original Hermanus holiday houses, has belonged to the
Clark family for three generations and they have been sharing their much loved
home with visitors for the past 20 years. While the décor and facilities may
have changed over the years with a splash of modern style and comfort, the
ambience and hospitality is just as it has always been – warm, relaxed, light
hearted and friendly.
The house is conveniently situated a stones throw
from the middle of the 12km Cliff Path which is surrounded by fynbos and
provides a multitude of whale watching spots. The Hermanus Golf Course, shops,
beauty salon and Hermanus Health & Fitness (a gym with sauna and sunbeds)
are almost on the doorstep and the village center within easy walking
distance.
To top it all Pat’s Place has a glorious private swimming pool
set in an indescribably luscious garden where you can absorb the tranquility and
champagne air without moving a muscle!
Suzanne and Nicholas aim to spoil
you in uncluttered luxury. At Pat’s Place you’ll find accommodation with
comfort, privacy and space. All rooms are en-suite with the choice of a bath and
shower; the beds are extra length with luxurious, crisp white percale cotton
linen and fluffy, extra large towels. And then there’s the breakfast!!!
Weather permitting, a hearty delicious full English breakfast, using only fresh ingredients from the Hemel-en-Aarde Valley, is served on the patio under an ancient oak tree where you can enjoy the beautiful mountain view (and Suzanne’s famous to-die-for cooking).
If you’re looking to enjoy a holiday in Hermanus, accommodation at Pat’s Place can be tailored to suit your needs. Savour the luxurious bed and breakfast accommodation, indulge in our romantic honeymoon suite (complete with Jacuzzi), or relish in having the whole place to yourselves if you’re wanting a self-catering family holiday in Hermanus.
