The Farmhouse Hotel
A West Coast farmstead hotel overlooking Langebaan Lagoon
The Farmhouse Hotel sits above Langebaan Lagoon on South Africa's West Coast, with rooms that look out over the water. You stay in farm-style spaces with tea stations and smart TVs; some have private hot tubs or fireplaces. Families can book rooms with daybeds for children up to fourteen.
The hotel has a swimming pool with loungers, a games room with a pool table, and a bar where local stories line the walls. Kitesurfers use the wash stations and locked storage for gear; pet owners bring dogs along to the pet-friendly rooms. The restaurant serves meals with lagoon views.
Langebaan's sheltered bay makes the lagoon calm for swimming and watersports. The hotel is on Egret Street in Myburgh Park, a short walk from the water's edge. Some rooms are in cottages designed by architect Gawie Fagan.
