There is a restaurant on site which serves breakfast, lunch and dinner at additional costs. Guests can relax and admire the sea view from the Western Saloon, a chique breakfast and dining area with a cozy log fire in winter. There is also a boma with a big log fire in the evenings.

Rate T'Niqua Stables & Lodge was truly one of the highlights of our trip in South Africa. Located high above the cliffs of Plett, far from the noise and lights of the town, this place is magic. Our hosts, Betina and Machil were friendly, warm and incredibly hospitable. Everything about T'Niqua is unique and special. The rooms are superb. Much thought and imagination has been invested in a completely unique environment. The food was excellent, and our hosts really made an effort to engage and make us feel at home.

Absolutely wonderful. We liked everything: the apartment, the beds, the pool, the location! The owner is very helpful. We are traveling with a one and three year old through south Africa and she arranged two baby beds for us and even a high chair! The apartment is also cleaned on a daily basis which was a nice extra.

    The guest house is very well located. The hosts were lovely and went out of their way to make our stay as pleasant as possible. The breakfasts were amazing - and far exceeded our expectations. The bed was comfortable and the hosts have a very charming and loveable scottish terrier who won my heart!
