Lake Pleasant Hotel: A Sedgefield Heritage 🌿
Steeped in history since the 1800s, Lake Pleasant Hotel remains Sedgefield’s true hidden gem. We aren’t about flashy modern frills; we are about the quiet charm of a bygone era. Tucked away at the back of the property, our rooms offer a peaceful escape with comfortable beds for a good night's rest.
While the famous lake views belong to our restaurant out front, our accommodation is all about tranquility, a hot shower, and a friendly team waiting to welcome you. No pretense and no rush—just a restful, historic corner of the Garden Route where you can recharge with a cup of coffee and a bit of silence.
Public welcome. Stay for the history, wake up for the breakfast.

Lake View Restaurant | Quiet. Scenic. Slightly Addictive. 🛶
We’ll be honest: the view of Groenvlei Lake might distract you from your conversation. Nestled within the Lake Pleasant Living gate, Lake View Restaurant is Sedgefield’s true hidden gem.
We serve honest, hearty food—steaks, curries, fresh seafood, and burgers—alongside seasonal blackboard specials that keep things interesting. We aren’t a flashy bistro; we’re a lakeside escape with a cozy fire, a sun-drenched deck, and a menu that hits the spot every time.
We are open to the public for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. No pretense. No rush. Just good food and the most peaceful view in the area. 📍 Find us just off the N2.
Send us an email, and we’ll get back to you faster than you can say ''I need a vacation!''
