    Ellerman House is the kind of place where beauty feels effortless and every detail has been considered. The staff are its true hallmark, polished and attentive without being intrusive. There is a rare quality to service when it is genuine and assured, and here you feel quietly cared for from the moment you arrive. The three-course dinner at OneEighty was thoughtfully prepared and beautifully paced. The breads with salted curry butter were a pleasant beginning, but the amuse-bouche ( a delicate chicken wonton in broth) set the tone for the evening. My starter, an exquisite pear and walnut salad, was perfectly paired with the Raats Old Vine Chenin Blanc. The prawn and mussel risotto, enjoyed with a local Sauvignon Blanc, was perhaps less remarkable (too much broth and not enough umami flavour). The highlight was unquestionably the citrus crème brûlée, which I savoured with a rose and French vanilla tea—a perfectly judged ending to the meal. Ellerman House is an experience of grace, discretion and quiet sophistication.

    We thoroughly enjoyed our visit to Ellerman house to celebrate our wedding anniversary. We started with an informative art tour of their incredible collection of South African art, drank cocktails by the fire before our delicious meal at One Eighty. Our food was excellent, with views over the sea, surrounded by art and our waiter was a legend! We’d love to return.

    Lovely lunch and experience at Ellerman House. The staff were amazing - attentive, friendly and professional. One star short as our margaritas weren’t that great as the barman unfortunately wasn’t on duty.
