For absolute peace and tranquility, venture no further than the Estate itself. An old-world ambience permeates the thatched manor house with its antique-furnished lounges, candle-lit dining rooms and sun-drenched conservatory.  Secluded within the gardens are 21 luxurious suites, individually designed and decorated, each uniquely distinctive. All have private patios and gardens, certain suites have their own plunge pools while all guests can enjoy the hotel’s large sparkling outdoor pool. Set in the magnificent gardens with a spectacular view of the Outeniqua Mountains, the recently built open-air Summer House provides an attractive alternative to the more formal dining rooms, offering innovative, informal meals with the focus on fresh wholesome cuisine.  Aromatherapy, massage and reflexology are available on request in the privacy of guests’ suites. Hunter’s’ additional features include a Boardroom (fully equipped with audio-visuals) where fax, internet and e-mail facilities are provided, a Curio shop, and a private ‘Chapel in the Forest’ for weddings. There are also five golf courses within easy access of the Estate.  Hunter’s’ superb gourmet cuisine, reflecting the rich diversity of South African cultures, is complemented by the finest Estate and prized Auction wines from the extensive cellar.
