Our Lodge is named after Colonel Charles Cornwallis Michell, who together with Michiel Van Breda designed and built the world famous
Cape Agulhas Lighthouse during the British Colonial occupation of the Cape of Good Hope.

The estate is built from Sandstone mined from the Overberg area, each handcrafted to fit into its unique place. A reed thatch roof tops it off, providing the ultimate in cooling during summer and entrapping heat in winter, allowing the smell of the ocean to pamper you all day long.

Our restaurant serves locally and Portuguese inspired dishes, all prepared on wood charcoal grill. 

The Overberg offers unique birding opportunities, and some of our species like the Damara Tern, breeds at De Mond Nature Reserve. Stanley's Bustard, Blue Crane and Secretary bird are some of the larger, more visible species present, while Southern Tchagra, Thick billed, Clapper and Long billed Lark, Karoo Robin and Cape Bunting are common amongst the smaller species.  

Is fishing is your passion? You have a choice of deep-sea fishing for the elusive Marlin, Tuna or those monster Red Steenbras hiding off the ledges on the Agulhas banks. The annual Yellowtail migration at Struisbaai is legendary. If you enjoy Rock and Surf, or fly-fishing we will take you to the finest Rock and surf fishing spots in South Africa to find Galjoen, Musselcracker, Cob, Garrick, Shad (Elf), Wit Steenbras, Shark and plenty more.
