The Milkwood Lodge is a great base for whale watching (about 10 min drive to the town centre) & close to Gansbaai (half an hour) for the sharks. Linda & her husband are very accommodating & knowledgeable & happy to help in any way they can to ensure a great stay. We had a self catering lodge on a B&B... More

We stayed at Milkwood Lodge for 2 nights during our honeymoon. For a guest house/B&B it is a high standard. I was surprised at how large the rooms were, they werent the most modern but I thought it added to the feel of the place and it was comfortable and clean. The only thing i missed was a dressing table... More

After returning from living in America, I have just spent 10 days at Milkwood Lodge in Hermanus. Linda and George couldn't have done more; they made me feel at home and I really enjoyed my stay. The rooms are set back from the road in a lovely garden with beautiful old Milkwood trees. I would highly recommend this guest house... More

Unfortunately when we arrived we were faced with George telling... More

We were two couples travelling together and stayed at Milkwood Lodge for 5 days during February. What we particularly loved is the spaciousness of the rooms and bathrooms with the private patios onto the garden. The rooms were recently refurbished and the crisp white linen and towels made the rooms very inviting. There is a good size swimming pool with... More

Linda and Georg are great hosts. Our room was large, very clean and comfortable with a large adjoining bathroom - tea and coffee making facilities and a fridge were provided.
