This Tuscan-styled country lodge, boasting breathtaking views of the Kleinrivier mountains, sits atop a hillside in Stanford Valley. It faces north and is surrounded by a pristine fynbos reserve, featuring indigenous flora unique to the Overberg region.
You’ll feel a world away from the hustle and bustle of modern life, yet you’re only a 15-minute drive from the historic village of Stanford. Here, you can enjoy biking and walking trails, wine farms, a cheese factory, regular farmer’s markets, breweries, gin distilleries, fine restaurants, and kilometers of beautiful beaches. The estate is also just 30 minutes from Hermanus, the whale-watching capital of South Africa, which offers a variety of restaurants, cafes, shops, entertainment, and activities.
The lodge is fully equipped with a spacious kitchen, perfect for preparing meals if a traditional “braai” isn’t on the agenda. The wood-fired pizza oven is also available for some adventurous cooking. Breakfast is served at the rustic wooden table in the dining hall or outside on the terrace, where you can continue to enjoy the magnificent mountain vistas.
Our trusted and friendly staff provide daily housekeeping and are available to assist with lighting the fire for a braai or the medieval fireplace to warm up those winter nights while you relax on the comfy couches with a book.
The lodge features five suites, all adorned with fine linens and designed for maximum comfort, each offering spectacular views of the mountains and the estate’s natural fynbos garden.
Two suites are located upstairs, each with a balcony and a private washroom. Downstairs, there are three additional suites, each decorated to evoke a unique mood—ideal for families needing more than one room. These share a full washroom, complete with a bath and shower.
For the adventurous, you can explore walking trails in the Milkwood forest or enjoy a picnic at the dam. If relaxation is your preference, the pool is perfect for soaking in the stunning scenery while feeling the warm South African sun on your skin. The only sounds you’ll hear are the birds, the distant crashing of waves, and the late afternoon roars from the lions at the neighboring Big Cat Sanctuary.
We take pride in being free of alien flora species, which is an ongoing issue in the region. Felicita operates with a low carbon footprint and is a self-sustaining eco-friendly facility that is off the national electricity grid. This means we are unaffected by load shedding, as all our facilities are powered 100% by solar and gas. Our water supply is sourced directly from a natural spring that cascades into a local stream and is processed through a chemical-free filtration system. All our guests are respectful of our preservation efforts here at Felicita.
Felicita Country Lodge can be rented out as a whole. Please message me for more information.

Lovely stay with amazing views! Thoroughly stocked house with everything you need.
Stunning setting. The house has everything you need for a great getaway. Great entertainment atmosphere as well as the relaxation provided by the surrounding views and beautiful pool. Hosts are extremely helpful to the guests needs. The pizza oven adds such a nice touch for large family lunches. I highly recommend this accommodation and will definitely be back again.
