Emily Moon River Lodge is a tranquil yet surprising haven, perched on a high river bank with glorious sweeping views over the Bitou river and vlei to the Tsitsikamma mountains beyond. Here you can enjoy delicious food and wine in their relaxed and popular restaurant, dining either in the lodge or on the deck, whilst Katy's Bar provides an obvious place for a drink following a hard day's sightseeing!

The eight chalets at Emily Moon are stylishly decorated with interesting African furniture and artefacts and clean simple lines.
(The owner is a collector and dealer in African art and furniture so pieces are sourced from as far away as Kenya and Somalia). Each has a sitting area with fireplace, TV, telephone, minibar, ceiling fan and a private wooden deck overlooking the river below.

The main lodge is entered by ancient carved wooden doors and the deck has been extended so as to enjoy the river views to greater effect. Indeed Emily Moon's location is ideal for birders and those who enjoy utter peace. Birds fly past at almost eye level whilst below ducks and geese make their home in the reeds of the river bank.

Facilities at Emily Moon River Lodge include a swimming pool, canoes for paddling on the river, plenty of walks as well as aromatherapy massages in your room. It's only 5 minutes drive from the tranquillity of Emily Moon to the restaurants, shops and beaches of Plettenberg Bay.

Emily Moon River Lodge welcomes older children from 10 years upwards . There is a family chalet with a second en suite bedroom below the main bedroom so that two children of any age can be accommodated in comfort. Emily Moon also has a fully serviced self-catering cottage nearby which is ideal for families.

Emily Moon River Lodge is well placed for enjoying some of the delights of the Eastern part of the Garden Route, my personal favourite. The Monkeyland primate sanctuary, Birds of Eden and the Elephant Sanctuary are all just a short drive away, as is Bramon wine estate - the only wine estate on the Garden Route with its delicious country lunches.
