Courtyard @ Saxon is a south annex to the popular Saxon Lodge. The 2 rooms, Boho and Sanctuary are budget rooms which have been simply decorated to ensure a comfortable stay. Both rooms have en-suite bathrooms with a shower and organic amenities and a small lounge with Netflix as entertainment. The rooms are on the courtyard on the south side of the building and are available as room only or bed & breakfast. Guests share the facilities offered by 4 star Saxon Lodge, which includes a beautiful garden overlooking the harbour, a plunge pool, deck, guest lounge with full service DSTV and bar. Breakfast is served from 7:30 until 10:00 in the Saxon Lodge dining area.
I have refocussed my attention on these 2 quirky rooms, which were previously our managers suites, and are now a budget offering for guests who want clean and comfortable accommodation without a big price tag. We love to chat and showcase our area and have some great ideas for you for exploring Gansbaai and for assisting with your forward travels. You are most welcome to enjoy the facilities that Saxon Lodge provides as value add to your stay.
Courtyard @ Saxon is central in Gansbaai with easy access to restaurants, pubs and shops. The harbour is a stones throw from the property and there are some great walks and outdoor activities available which we would be more than happy to tell you about. The neighbourhood and these 2 rooms are generally very quiet and peaceful.
