WELCOME The Lighthouse offers 5 bedrooms (sleeping 10) and is by far the most ideal hideaway destination just about an hour’s drive outside of Cape Town. Set in the pristine coastal fynbos dunes of the idyllic West Coast village of Yzerfontein, this is a beach house for nature lovers. This beautiful, one of a kind beach retreat, with undisturbed and magnificent ocean views is balsam for the soul. Its unique, airy and spacious design is ideal for large families, social gatherings, romantic rendezvous and is the perfect location for film and photo shoots. Kick up your feet, relax and absorb the exquisite scenery. Let the sound of the waves and seagulls wash away the stress of daily life. Salty white clapperboard exteriors reflect the easy living atmosphere of the open-plan living area. Float around on the lime-washed wooden floors, a backdrop to the luxurious white interior furnishings. On blissfully hot summer days cool down in the unique plunge pool, or snuggle up during seaside winters and cooler summer evenings next to any of the three sublime fireplaces. Charming and exclusive, the Lighthouse of Yzerfontein promises an unrivalled and magical experience.

My mission is to make you feel home in my home. I personally designed The Lighthouse more than 10 years ago, and since then it served many individuals as perfect hideaway, summer or weekend stay as well as (prices on request) companies for photo and film shoots, for corporate functions and weddings.

We wish you a delightful and memorable stay and hope that you feel very much at home here in this little paradise. Thank you for only wearing flat shoes, or going bare foot inside the house. High-healed shoes cause a lot of damage. The house is situated in a nature conservancy full of animals and plants. Please walk only on the sandy paths and tread carefully: there are many tiny plants and succulents pushing their way to the surface of the sand. The ostriches are used to humans, but remain wild. They can be quite aggressive, especially in the mating season or when raising their young. Look at them, take photos of them, but do not approach them. We do not allow dogs on our premises as they can potentially harm the wildlife and cause damage. We’ve found many tortoises with cracked shells caused by dog’s trying to bite them. Also, the ostriches stamp and kick dogs that try to chase them. Please enjoy the swimming pool! But enjoy it wisely: don’t jump in it or run around it. Splashing wastes precious water. Please watch your children!! The towels in the sauna room can be used for around the pool or at the beach. Please make use of the outside braai (barbeque).
