LYNGENFJORD HOUSE
Bed & Breakfast/ Guest House/ Guest Lodge Accommodation
in Cape St. Francis, Western Region,
Eastern Cape, South Africa
Lyngenfjord House is a 4 star Bed & Breakfast situated in the quiet "green"
village of Cape St Francis - at the most southern point of the Eastern Cape. The
name Lyngenfjord comes from the Norwegian Cargo Steamer, which sank off our
coastline in 1938.
Michael and Elza van Lingen, the owners, who retired from farming in 2002,
entertain guests with true Eastern Cape hospitality in a family home atmosphere.
Guests have spectacular, panoramic views of the beach and ocean from the
bedrooms, private balconies, both lounges, the dining area and the pool terrace
- ideal for whale and dolphin watching. The antique Cape Dutch furniture, from
the late 1800's, complements and warms the spacious rooms. A Fynbos garden
surrounds the house, boasting with many plants in this rare and endangered plant
group as well as those used for herbal and medicinal purposes. In January 2003
Lyngenfjord House was awarded 4 Star grading by the Tourism Grading Council of
SA.
The tourist, who normally lives in cities and wishes to break away from a hectic
jet-set life, will be pleasantly surprised by the natural beauty of Cape St
Francis. The 3 km pristine beach between Seal Point and Cape St Francis, has a
healing effect on the soul of the guest, who had to rush through our great
country to enjoy and see as much as possible in too short a time. It is safe to
swim and Seal Point is a world renowned surf spot. The village is surrounded by
four nature reserves. The walkways, clearly marked, present easy relaxing and
refreshing walks along the coastline, round our famous historical Lighthouse and
more inland through the Irma Booysen Reserve. There are many interesting
activities locally - info on request.
Cape St Francis is the ideal base for nearby adventures and outings, which
include a canal and river cruises, visits to local game parks, as well as Addo
and Shamwari, a visit to the Baviaans Wilderness area, the Bread Basket of the
Kouga region at Hankey and Patensie, many cultural sites like the Sara Baartman
Grave and the Kouga Cultural Centre and the beauty and exhilarating adventures
of Tsitsikamma. It is also the ideal stop over to or from the Port Elizabeth
Airport - a mere 115 km away.
Lyngenfjord House is a recommended destination by the many European,
Scandinavian, British and American guests. Their promise to return to South
Africa, always include an extended stay with Michael and Elza at Lyngenfjord
House.
