Magical destination!

In many ways, this is a destination that seems to operate in parallel to the real world, regularly actualising the fictitious world on which it's based.

Accommodation Description​


Nestled between the Maanschynkop and Walker Bay Nature Reserves, Coot Club offers a serene escape along the banks of the Klein Rivier Lagoon. Spanning 464 hectares of private reserve, this retreat features architect-designed villas inspired by traditional boatsheds, seamlessly blending into the natural landscape. Accommodations range from stone cottages to modern boathouses, each thoughtfully positioned to ensure privacy and unobstructed views of the lagoon or surrounding landscapes. Interiors reflect a blend of rustic charm and contemporary comfort, featuring natural materials like wood and stone, plush bedding, and large windows that invite natural light and stunning views. Many accommodations include fireplaces, outdoor decks, and fully equipped kitchens, making them perfect for families or longer stays. ​


Setting Description​


Situated near the charming village of Stanford, Coot Club is surrounded by pristine natural beauty. The Klein Rivier Lagoon teems with birdlife and unique plant diversity, offering guests a tranquil environment to explore. The estuary is ideal for kayaking, paddleboarding, sailing, and swimming. The lawns and swimming pools of Coot Club serve as a natural playground, and the dunes fringing the Walker Bay Nature Reserve are notable for being a favorite Southern Right whale nursery from July to November. ​


What We Love

  • Prime Location: Nestled along the picturesque Klein Rivier Lagoon.
  • Diverse Accommodation: The retreat features an eclectic mix of traditional stone cottages and contemporary boathouses.
  • Abundant Wildlife: As part of the Walker Bay Fynbos Conservancy, Coot Club is home to indigenous bird species and diverse flora.
  • Family-Friendly Activities: From kayaking and paddleboarding on the lagoon to exploring the nearby milkwood forests, there are numerous activities suitable for all ages, making it an ideal destination for multigenerational family gatherings.
