Phillipskop Mountain Reserve
We warmly invite you to enjoy our spacious, self-catering Eco-Chalets at Phillipskop Mountain Reserve, just outside Stanford and less than a 30-minute drive from Hermanus. Nestled among the fynbos-covered slopes of the Klein River Mountains, our chalets offer stunning panoramic views of the fynbos and Overberg from every window. Relax in our lounge with a log-burning stove, and enjoy a braai with mountain views. During your stay, explore the reserve’s hiking trails and ancient rock art with complimentary permits. Our eco-friendly practices ensure guilt-free relaxation with solar power, sustainably sourced firewood, and environmentally friendly cleaning products. Please note that we do not accommodate Sunday check-ins, although exceptions may be made for stays of four or more days.
