Chalet 40 is a fully equipped holiday home set in 17 hectares of secure, privately owned grounds with large communal space, a swimming pool, and a fenced game enclosure—just 400 metres from a pristine sandy beach. Comfortably and thoughtfully furnished, the chalet offers uncluttered accommodation for up to eight guests, with three bedrooms and a spacious loft. The home is situated within the peaceful Silver Ranch estate, surrounded by oodles of beautifully maintained, privately owned garden grounds. The homes are arranged in a single row around a secure, fenced game enclosure, creating a sense of both openness and privacy. Thoughtfully furnished, the chalet offers uncluttered accommodation for up to eight guests, with three ground-floor bedrooms and a spacious loft that doubles as a playroom for children. All living areas and the three bedrooms are on one level with step-free access, making it ideal for families and guests of all ages. To ease the inconvenience of load shedding, the chalet is equipped with a wired 5 kVA inverter. And while Plettenberg Bay enjoys a mild, temperate climate, a powerful 36,000 BTU air conditioning unit—installed in 2025—ensures comfort during occasional extremes in summer and winter. The heart of the home is its open-plan living area, combining a comfortable lounge, dining space, and a fully equipped kitchen. The kitchen features a gas hob, electric oven, microwave, fridge-freezer, dishwasher, and a four-seater breakfast bar. The dining table in the entrance room seats six. The outside table at built-in BBQ seats eight. A separate scullery includes a washing machine, tumble dryer, drying racks, iron and ironing board, vacuum cleaner, baby cot, and beach umbrella. After a day of enjoying the South African sunshine, guests can unwind and cool off in the estate’s shared non-heated swimming pool.

As I live far away, I appointed a local company in Plett to handle the cleaning, and to take care of the things that I cannot do from afar. When I receive your reservation, I'll share a detailed information sheet with you, and also establish contact via phone.

Ideal for those wishing to explore the spectacular scenery, guests can hike to the Keurbooms River lagoon mouth to observe the exotic birdlife, or travel east to Keurbooms Strand, where the plateau drops down towards the sea and the rocky coastline begins. A plethora of things to do and see are easily accessible when staying at Chalet 40, including discovery of the native wildlife with Ocean Blue Adventures and deep sea fishing trips, whilst a visit to Buffalo Hills Game Reserve and Rhino Base Camp are a must. Located just 90 kilometres from George Airport, Chalet 40 is within reach of Knysna - sporting the famous Pezula golf course - Cape Town, Port Elizabeth and Shamwari Game Reserve by car.
