Foreign language description

Hermanus has some of the best land-based whale watching in the world - you can see them breach from the terrace or Jacuzzi! Delightful walking from your front door - a "cliff path" follows the coast into town while, the other way, stretch miles of pristine beach, culminating in a lagoon. Shop for art and crafts bargains in Market Square. Improve your swing at the local 18-hole golf course, or at the Arabella Golf estate 30 minutes drive away. The town has plenty of good restaurants, bars and nightlife. Hike into Fernkloof nature reserve, whose streams and (swimmable) reservoirs are surrounded by a wealth of colourful 'Vynbos' flora, including some endemic proteas. The owners can arrange guided walks with an expert in local flora, fauna and birdlife. For the more actively inclined, there is paragliding off the Olifantberg, surfing and shark cage diving on the coast, and kloofing (canyoning) down 'Suicide Gorge'. For gourmands, the vineyards and fine restaurants of the winelands are half an hour away. Cookery lessons in a range of cuisines can also be arranged at the villa with a nationally renowned chef. The southernmost tip of Africa, Cape Agulhas, is a haunting, wave-lashed spot within 2 hours' drive. Given advance notice, the owners can arrange almost anything, including special interest tours, surfboard rental, horse-riding - and weddings.
