Tucked away on a quiet tree-lined street, in the stylish Cape Town suburb of Oranjezicht is the luxurious 5 star Rutland Lodge.
This magnificent Herbert Baker house with its Cape Dutch architecture is framed against Table Mountain. The original house was built some time around the turn of the century and the Higginson Family have restored it into an exclusive 5 star Boutique Guest House. The renovations have retained the character of the era house while ensuring that today's discerning guests luxuriate in the modern comforts with total privacy and personal service.
The tastefully appointed guest suites are excellent havens of reserved relaxation, giving guests a place to retire after a long day of work, sightseeing or travel.
Each of the exquisitely decorated suites features a walk on balcony or leads onto a private garden and includes a tastefully finished en suite bathroom, luxurious bathrobes, pure cotton sheets, goose down duvets and king size or twin beds.
All the suites are air-conditioned and offer mini-bars, DVD, DSTV, telephone, internet access, safes and hairdryers.
In summer cool down in the swimming pool or take tea in the garden. The Cape Town city bowl suburbs are situated on the slopes
of Table Mountain, close to some of the most stunning beaches in the world.
Apart from Oranjezicht, the city bowl suburbs include Gardens, Vredehoek,
Tamboerskloof and Higgovale. Accommodations here offer magnificent views
across the city bowl and further north to Table Bay the harbour and
