Cybele Forest Lodge and Spa
 As
you travel into the cool of the forest country, deeper and higher, far into
the mountains you will find Cybele Forest Lodge and Health Spa.
Three hundred acres of african paradise, living forest, mountains and
meadows. In the centre, the lodge is a charming old farmhouse with a wide
verandah where you can sip sundowners whilst looking out over the
magnificent gardens. Let the world slip away as you watch the monkeys
cavorting in the giant turpentine trees. Take in the cool violet of the
jacaranda, the shocking pink of the tibouchina and the scarlet umbrella of
the african flame tree. Wander down to the large secluded heated swimming
pool with its comfortable sun beds. Here you can relax and listen to the
creaking of the bluegum trees in the forest breeze and breathe in the heady
aromas of frangipani, gardenia and buddleia.
In striking contrast to the vivid colours and lush greenery of the garden,
the interior of the lodge is warm and inviting. Furnished throughout with
antiques, original art and exquisite fabrics, the main house is a most
relaxing place to read a book or to browse through one of the many current
magazines from all over the world. Daydream on the verandah, or visit the
bar to enjoy a drink or a special cocktail before sampling the lodge's
legendary cuisine.
Accommodation:
The magic of cybele emerges as you are shown to your room. Accommodation is
limited to 28 guests, ensuring peace and quiet, and personal attention. Each
of the suites and cottages has been furnished and decorated to exacting
standards. Original art adorns the walls and every whim is catered for, from
the well-stocked mini bar in each room - complete with freshly sliced lemon
and lime for your gin-and-tonic and ginger for your tea - to the little
sheep you’ll find on your pillow at night.
All rooms and suites have walled gardens, many with views over the
mountains, and six have heated pools for your exclusive use. Other features
include separate lounge areas, air conditioning throughout, heated towel
rails, satellite television, immaculate bedrooms and bathrooms - many with
walled outside showers, underfloor heating, and fireplaces ensuring, in
winter, you can drift off to sleep with the comforting flicker of an open
fire.
