Gorges Lodge refurbishment

Our refurbishment program at Gorges Lodge is well underway and our first four rooms are complete. We hope to complete the remaining 6 rooms over the course of this year.

In our refurbisheded rooms we have removed the multiple small glass pane frames on the windows and sliding doors and replaced them with large single glass panes, as well as mosquito gauze, so the doors and windows can now be opened to allow cool air in and the gauze will keep out any bugs! The rooms themselves have been enlarged, and the beds now face the gorge. The rooms have new overhead fans within feature mosquito net canopies and all the furniture and soft furnishings are new.

The bathrooms have been made bigger and we have taken out the old baths and replaced them with a big feature double shower complete with seating area, twin shower heads plus a third hand held shower unit. The bathrooms now have twin vanities, new floors, new toilets and new light fittings.

Journalists who stayed at Gorges Lodge recently did a write up in the Cape Times newspaper:

Cape Times - 17 July - River of dreams - Gorges lodge saves the day.
