Perched high on the cliffs of Hermanus, overlooking the whale watchers paradise of Walker Bay, Birkenhead House and the adjacent villa accommodate guests in the utmost luxury.

Property Details
Birkenhead House is an incredible 11 suite luxury boutique hotel, privately nestled high atop a picturesque Hermanus Cliff. The only sight that is rivaled by the view is the incredible interior of this sumptuous luxury property.
The adjacent Birkenhead Villa has five rooms, as luxuriously appointed as Birkenhead House, and is recommended for bookings which take the entire Villa complete with private chef. Also the Villa at Birkenhead House welcomes children of all ages and has interconnected rooms, ideal for a family of four.
Every elegant detail in the richly appointed rooms has been delicately displayed. Birkenhead House is the place to stay for the ultimate romantic, from hand-embroidered Ralph Lauren bedding to the marble pillars and scented candles.
The staff will immediately spoil you and the attention to detail is unmatched at every turn. From fresh flowers in the bathroom to a morning call to alert you that the dolphins are below the cliffs, playing in the surf, Birkenhead House raises the bar of grace, elegance and service.
Activities abound for those who love to stroll and walk. Located in a narrow coastal plain between the mountains and the ocean, Hermanus and the nearby region is a haven those who wish to slow down the pace. Easy to moderate trails, village walking tours and beach escapes are the major draw.
