Erinvale Estate Hotel & Spa, set amidst the serene beauty of Somerset West in the heart of the Helderberg, is delighted to celebrate its new pet-friendly status, extending a warm welcome to both guests and now their beloved canine companions, too.

Understanding the importance of pets as an integral part of the family, Erinvale invites small and medium-sized dogs to enjoy a luxurious stay in their newly unveiled dog-friendly Garden Terrace Rooms. This offering allows pet owners to bring their furry companions along on getaways, ensuring an unforgettable experience for the entire family.

“We recognise that pets are cherished family members, and we are thrilled to welcome our canine guests with open arms. At Erinvale, we are committed to providing an inclusive and memorable experience for every member of the family. Pet-owners can arrive knowing every detail has been thoughtfully considered and that these garden terrace rooms do not compromise on any of the contemporary luxury and modern amenities.” said Debbie-Lee Cockrell, General Manager of Erinvale Estate Hotel & Spa.

The countryside retreat’s pet-friendly accommodation caters to small to medium-sized dogs, ensuring the royal treatment extends to them too. Upon inquiry, guests can request one of the specially designated dog-friendly garden rooms, which have direct access to a small, contained garden area. Pooches are pampered with specialised beds, as well as an assortment of toys and treats awaiting them in the rooms. Water and food bowls, along with a doggy-friendly menu are all part and parcel of the stay, ensuring a tail-wagging experience for all canine clientele.

The hotel's grounds, celebrated for their indigenous gardens, provide plenty of outdoor space for pets to play and explore amid lush surroundings. Additionally, the on-site restaurant, Oak Terrace, warmly welcomes dogs on a leash when accompanied by overnight guests. This shaded dining area, adorned with umbrellas and surrounded by abundant trees, ensures a comfortable and enjoyable experience for all.

Perfectly situated in the heart of the Helderberg, Erinvale Estate Hotel & Spa is ideally surrounded by iconic estates and neighbouring wine farms, offering guests and their pets a wealth of outdoor adventures, dog-friendly activities and scenic exploration.

Additionally, the renowned Radloff Park is just around the corner, featuring a picturesque river walk along the Lourens River, and the nearby Strand beach, just minutes away, make for ideal settings for sunset strolls with furry companions.
