SPA:

The new Spa brings a new level of luxury, privacy and tranquility to Mount Grace. Designed to complement the unique peace and beauty long associated with Mount Grace, the Spa is completely integrated into its natural environment. It has been designed to be part of Mountain Village so that Spa guests can enjoy exclusivity and privacy. To this end, 10 of the Mountain Rooms now have private, heated Plunge Pools.

The Spa looks and feels more like a farmhouse than a Wellness Centre and has five Private Treatment Rooms and a Spa Cafe all under thatch. A highlight of the Spa is the Hydrotherapy Garden planted with indigenous trees and featuring Rock Pools of varying temperatures in which guests can soothe away the stresses and strains of modern living. Massage your shoulders under a powerful waterfall or immerse your legs alternately in hot and cold water. Inside, a range of feel-good Face and Body Treatments are on offer.

The Stoep, a Romantic, intimate Restaurant offering an innovative a la Carte Menu, has recently launched a new menu. Introduced specifically for guests who do not want to dine in the Copperfield Grill every night, The Stoep is perfect for Celebrations and Romantic liaisons. In winter, a roaring log fire is a focal point. A special Gourmet Weekend is planned for later in the year. Interactive, educational and entertaining, the weekend will consist of hands-on cooking classes led by a well-known local chef.
