An Aerial Tour of Lilypond Country Lodge

Soar above the Tsitsikamma to Lilypond Country Lodge - it's a fine way to see how the Lodge is situated near the tranquil rivers and amongst the indigenous yellowood forests of our area.

Located close to Natures Valley's beach & Lagoon with its breathtaking nature, walking trails, abundant bird life and adventures in and around Tsitsikamma National Park.

The scenic route from Plettenberg Bay winds through rural farmlands and indigenous forests, and dips down to beach village Nature's Valley on the edge of the Tsitsikamma section of the Garden Route National Park. It's on this route that you'll find Lily Pond Country Lodge - with its beautiful lily ponds surrounded by 12 hectares of natural-style gardens, indigenous forest and well-known Bistro LYS on site.

Breathtaking views

Lily pond was so beautiful and peaceful, I had the greatest downtime to the property, mouth watering 4 course dinner meal, breakfast scrumptious, staff very friendly. It was so sad that I was unable to use the bath tub. I booked the room knowing well that at the end of the day I love to take a long bath
