As with all the perfect seaside getaways, they’re envisaged as areas to ask slowing down. Tender linens for afternoon naps, well-stocked bookshelves tempting you on to the sofa, and deep patios that beg for languorous lunches. You’ll love the out of doors showers and the intelligent touches — Babylonstoren’s inventory in commerce — like followers discreetly hid in wardrobes to dry out garments tinged with the ocean’s salty kiss. Loos? Count on cool, spacious sanctuaries awash in pure mild.
With a spot this good, there needs to be a catch, proper? Except for the fee — from R13,200 for 2 nights in a one-bedroom cottage — BLOU is just not for everybody.
“As a result of BLOU’s restricted availability, solely visitors who’ve already stayed at both Babylonstoren Farm Lodge or The Newt in Somerset could make a reservation,” is the official line.
This may occasionally irk a few of these hoping for a reserving, however for these fortunate sufficient to remain at BLOU, they may discover a luxurious escape with a deep sense of place, the place structure defers to panorama, and a part of the true luxurious is solely the artwork of feeling comfy.
