Ellerman House

Ker & Downey® Africa > Accommodation > Ellerman House, South Africa

Celebrating the brilliance of a bygone era in contemporary style

Located on the slopes of Lion’s Head along Cape Town’s Atlantic seaboard within walking distance of the Clifton and Camps Bay beaches, Ellerman House is a chic mansion that offers opulent accommodation and phenomenal service. Regardless of whether you opt for the lavish ambiance of Ellerman House or the contemporary style of its villas, your stay will be nothing short of magical at this location that fuses all of the beauty and thrills of the Mother City.

The concierge desk is at hand to arrange a variety of activities and experiences in and around Cape Town, including excursions to see the penguin colony at Boulders Beach in Simon’s Town and the Cape Winelands. Alternatively, the Cape Edwardian-style mansion offers impressive wine and art experiences where guests can embark on a journey through South African wine and take a guided tour through an original art collection that dates back to the mid-1800s.

Formerly a private residence, Ellerman House combines contemporary philosophies and decor with an existing classical setting. It has 13 rooms and suites, two ultra-modern villas, a peaceful spa and indigenous gardens, all while boasting spectacular views of the Atlantic Ocean throughout. Modern cuisine that reflects the best of local and seasonal flavors, exquisite wine pairings and generous-hearted hospitality add up to a world-class guest experience that remains convincingly South African.

Highlights:

  • Located in the quiet suburb of Bantry Bay
  • A historic mansion with classic architecture
  • Home to South Africa’s most important private art collection
  • Breathtaking views of the Atlantic Ocean
  • Exceptional cuisine and wines
