Accommodation at the lodge is limited to 28 people, and each of the various suites, cottages and studios has been individually decorated and personalized. Most include sitting rooms, some private walled patios and yet another has a private sauna. All six suites have their own private swimming pools, two of these are heated and all the cottages and suites have log fireplaces with a plentiful supply of wood so that in winter you can drift off to the soothing sound of logs crackling in the fireplace. It’s very romantic!

If total privacy is what you are looking for, try one of our Paddock suites. Situated with a stunning view over the mountains, forests and meadows, these spacious thatched suites offer great comfort and the ultimate in luxury accommodation. Comprising a main bedroom and bathroom - featuring a walled garden shower - a large sitting room, a second bathroom, an upstairs gallery with extra beds, and a sun terrace. Each of these suites also has its own generously proportioned swimming pool.

In striking contrast to the vivid colors and lush greenery of the gardens, the interior of the Lodge is warm, soft and mellow. Furnished throughout with antiques, art and exquisite fabrics, the main house is a most relaxing place to read a book, to browse through one of the many current magazines from all over the world - or to enjoy a drink before sampling the Lodge's cuisine.

Dining

And it is here in the intimate dining room that perhaps Cybele's most memorable achievements are revealed. The consistently high standard has earned Cybele a reputation amongst both local and international travelers for some of the very finest food in the land. For dinner there are home-made soups, freshly baked bread, imaginative starters, a choice of elegant main courses served with the freshest of vegetables, and creative desserts.

All prepared by chefs with impeccable qualifications and served in the candlelit, silver laden dining room.

The Spa

The Spa in the Forest. Romantic and peaceful ambience, guests at Cybele are able to indulge in a full range of treatments at this world-famous forest hideaway. Highly experienced staff have designed a wide range of programs and treatments to relax the body and enrich the soul.

An additional feature of the Spa is a large open-air hydrotherapy bath - which has been fashioned out of natural materials and enclosed in a private-walled courtyard.
