We came across Lairds Lodge by a chance search on the internet, and we are so happy that we did! We stayed for 4 nights so we could base ourselves in this lovely place in order to explore the local area. From the moment we arrived, the staff could not have been more friendly and attentive. The Lodge is beautifully presented, and peaceful, and our room was really clean and comfortable. But the real highlight was the restaurant. The food was excellent! Our host, Lesley came and chatted with us at breakfast every morning, and her recommendations for places to visit were spot on! I would definitely recommend a stay at Lairds Lodge if you want the perfect mix of luxury and tranquility while you explore a beautiful part of South Africa.

Beautiful place. So comfortable and relaxing, with lovely staff, gorgeous rooms and delicious food. Loved all the common spaces, especially The Monkey Bar. The perfect place for our group to be able to relax and unwind at the end of our trip.

A beautiful home from home. Stunning grounds and pool. There is no typical restaurant on-site, or room service, but they do a set menu each evening at 7pm. This is delicious, so worth it. The staff were very attentive, warm and caring. Each morning at breakfast the manager asked us our plans for the day and provided recommendations and local tips. Thanks to this we managed to catch the Saturday market and dine at a local nearby restaurant (Zinzi, highly recommend!), which we would otherwise have missed. The hotel even drove us to/from the restaurant at a very reasonable cost and the driver was so nice. The room and bathroom, though really clean, is slightly dated. The bathroom more so than the room. The tiles had just been painted over and the taps really stiff. The shower pressure was rubbish. It could really do with a refresh. There was also a lack of attention to detail with no hooks for dressing gowns, a lack of plugs, hair dryer didn’t work etc. It wouldn’t put me off going back, but just not as luxurious as we expected. Otherwise a really good stay, I’d give 4.5 stars if I could.

We would recommend Lairds to anyone travelling on the garden route: The food in the hotel was fantastic. Every single staff member we met was extremely attentive. A special mention to Bani - he was always checking to make sure we had everything we needed. He even got up early at 6.30am to help us with our cases as we needed to get on the road sharp. Nothing was too much trouble for him and the rest of the team. Lovely people working hard to ensure the best for their guests. Would stay again.

Comfortable, interesting accommodation. Although off the busy main road noise could be heard from it, especially at night. Two swimming pools with good, comfortable seating around the main one. Our bedroom was comfortable but the bathroom was in need of updating. It was an interesting experience to eat our evening meal in the wine cellar. The food was excellent and well presented.

We stayed at lairds lodge for two nights and wish we could stay longer!! The service is incredible and so genuine. The attention to detail combined with a friendly smile really did make this place stand out from the rest and after lots of travelling and different hotels, made for a homely feel too. Breakfast and dinner was brilliant, better than 5 star restaurants we had visited during the holiday. The style and decor is so quirky and creates for a really relaxing environment. If you are visiting Plet on the garden route this is a good option too.

This is just the most amazing guest house. It’s absolutely delightful with wonderful staff. They were all so very kind , helpful and just lovely. The diner was sublime, cooked to perfection and served with incredible insights and an education on glasses for wine ! Breakfast also fab. The pool area is lovely, didn’t go in but spent a very pleasant couple of hours sitting around it. Highly recommend.

We received a very warm welcome when we arrived. Our room (no 1) was very comfortable with a lovely, private outside terrace looking out onto the garden. Nearby was a very clean swimming pool (too cold to use it) with comfortable sun loungers where we were able to soak up a few rays of sunshine We were shown the evening dinner menu from which we had to choose in advance. There was a 2/3 course set menu or alternative main course and dessert. There was sufficient choice although it sometimes is difficult to know early on in the day what you might want to eat in the evening. Breakfast was very good with combination of buffet and freshly prepared hot food. The property is about a 10 min drive from the centre of Plett.

We came across this hotel after researching online following a bad experience in a previous hotel. When we asked if there was availability they could not have made us feel more welcome. Everything from that point on was nothing short of perfect. As it was our honeymoon they put complimentary prosecco and chocolates in our room. We also enjoy eating in on both nights and the food was gorgeous. A special mention to Eddie who truly made our experience even more special! We only wish we could have stayed longer!
