Take a break from the daily grind and rediscover the joy of simple adventures at Coot Club.
At Coot Club, it's all about unwinding and reconnecting. Start the day with a gentle morning meditative walk, or serene paddles across the lagoon, perfectly in sync with nature, sharing these moments with loved ones or friends.
Nestled between the majestic Maanschynkop Nature Reserve mountains and Walker Bay Nature Reserve, where the Klein River gracefully flows into one of South Africa's most vital estuaries – a haven for birdlife and endemic plant diversity – lies Coot Club. Just two hours from Cape Town, this exclusive retreat spans 464 hectares of private nature reserve on the serene south bank of the Klein Rivier Lagoon. The charming village of Stanford, known for its simple and gentle way of life, is just a stone's throw away.
Coot Club offers a variety of striking, architect-designed accommodation, inspired by the traditional boatsheds dotting the Klein Rivier Lagoon. Each villa, crafted with weathered tones and textures, blends seamlessly into the natural landscape, ensuring ultimate privacy within the fynbos thickets. Whether you're a couple, a family, or a multi-generational group, you'll find a space perfectly suited to your needs.
You are spoilt for choice, between lake-side Boathouses, Leeward Cottages or Lawn Stone Cottages surrounded by Milkwood trees. Enjoy meals or laze around the pool at the Coot Clu Clubhouse.
Coot Club is deeply committed to preserving the incredible environment in which we operate. Every guest stay and conservation levy directly contributes to protecting this fragile wonderland, including the vital Walker Bay Nature Conservancy. Our founders and shareholders are united by a common goal: safeguarding vulnerable areas of biodiversity and maximizing sustainable economic potential for the wider community.
Coot Club is proud to be a member of the Walker Bay Fynbos Conservancy.

Boathouses
Nestled seamlessly into the fynbos along the lagoon shore, our Boathouses offer stunning mountain views. Built with strict adherence to local guidelines, these blend perfectly with their surroundings. Choose between two or three-bedroom Boathouses, ideal for families or groups of friends.
Each Boathouse features a spacious, airy open-plan lounge, dining area, and kitchen complete with a fireplace. Bedrooms lead off this central space. Fold-away doors open completely, revealing steps down to a private grassed area and the fynbos beyond.
Inside, light-filled interiors are inspired by a contemporary nautical theme. You'll be just steps from the lagoon, ready for a morning swim or kayak.
The Clubhouse is the vibrant heart of Coot Club. Enjoy breakfast on the terrace, as well as lunch, dinner, and snacks. Our team is on hand to help you explore the lagoon or the wider area, assisting you in planning and booking unique activities well off the usual tourist trail.

Lawn Stone Cottages
Tucked away in the tranquil milkwood forest, just a short stroll from the lagoon's edge, you'll find one of Coot Club's original stone cottages. Surrounded by rolling green lawns and ancient milkwood trees, it offers a truly serene escape.
This spacious cottage is perfect for families, comfortably accommodating up to six adults in three bedrooms, plus up to four children in the upstairs loft. The heart of the home is a double-height living area with expansive glass doors that open onto a large veranda. From the upper deck, you'll be treated to stunning views of both the mountains and the lagoon.
Outside, the fun continues with a built-in BBQ, a relaxing wood-fired hot tub, a cozy firepit, and various seating areas perfect for gathering with loved ones. It's an ideal spot to create lasting memories.

Leward Cottages
The charming Leeward Cottages offer a perfect blend of style and value, bridging the gap between our Lawns and Boathouse accommodations. This collection includes four units (two Leeward Suites and two Leeward Large), nestled serenely among ancient milkwood trees.
Each single-bedroom Leeward unit is ideal for couples or small families, boasting a spacious veranda that overlooks vibrant fynbos gardens, buzzing with local birdlife. You can relax in your private wood-fired hot tub on the deck, enjoying tranquil views of the garden and beyond.
While staying at the Leeward Cottages, you're invited to explore the surrounding area and enjoy delicious meals at the Coot Club Clubhouse. Here, our daily menu features fresh, locally sourced produce for both lunch and dinner.
