Culinary Heaven in the Tsitsikamma Forest

"Here’s my first piece of advice about Crags Country Lodge: stay for at least two nights and make NO plans to eat out. When you finally leave the property, you’ll rue every missed meal; the place is foodie nirvana.

"While many believe the most notable South African wines come from Stellenbosch, Paarl and Constantia,
the Garden Route has wine regions of its own that shouldn’t be overlooked. Just a few hours outside Cape
Town is where you’ll discover a different crop of wine land that sits within a colder climate and is known for a
robust production of Méthode Cap Classique sparkling wines.

For those in search of a fresh wine scene, foodie heaven or a break from the city grind, The Crags – just
20km beyond Plettenberg Bay – holds the key to a perfect weekend getaway. Dramatically situated on
the hill overlooking the rolling green countryside is the spectacular Crags Country Lodge."
