Description

The Loerie Hide Bed and Breakfast is a luxury, TGCSA rated, 4-Star bed and breakfast establishment situated in East London, South Africa.

Your hosts, Nigel and Sue Rainer, invite you to share the peace and tranquility of their idyllic bed and breakfast setting in the heart of town. Choose between the African style Safari Room, the more traditional Colonial and New Colonial Rooms, and the rustic Rondavel.

The four luxury, on-suite bed and breakfast rooms are set in a beautiful sub-tropical garden, affording guests an oasis of peace and tranquility in the heart of East London. Birdlife in the garden is prolific, and many pleasant bird-watching hours may be spent on the wooden deck projecting into the surrounding indigenous vegetation. If you are fortunate, you may even catch a glimpse of the Knysna Louries which visit the property on a regular basis.

Bedroom doors open onto the beautifully appointed garden with a salt water pool, and each room has a private entrance, patio or deck. The rooms are equipped with Satellite TV and WiFi. Full English Breakfasts are included in the rates, and may be enjoyed overlooking the splendid Nahoon River valley. Secure off-street parking for vehicles is also available.

Although The Loerie Hide Bed and Breakfast is set in a beautiful and tranquil upmarket suburb in the heart of East London, it provides quick and easy access to the city center, a golf course, beaches, restaurants, shops, banks and other East London attractions.
