Worth a visit even if not staying over

We have been following the instagram for a few months before we arrived to SA and were completely sold by the concept. Arriving to Barringtons was we were definitely not let down. We were checked in and taken to our deluxe room with a patio balcony looking down over the garden. The room was spacious, clean, and luxurious. We ate a late lunch at the bar with a few beers by the fire and returned later for some supper and a night cap. Wonderful place!

Fantastic accommodation and restaurant

Staff were amazing, decor was well designed and very modern. Overall it was a great experience. We had lunch and dinner at the hotel and enjoyed the complimentary cocktail at the end of the evening. Would definitely stay here again.

We very much enjoyed our stay in this hotel, particularly because of it's good and safe location in Plettenberg Bay, the very cosy restaurant & brewery, the clean and nice rooms, and the outstandingly friendly and welcoming staff. The food was so good, we always opted for dinner in the restaurant rather than outside during our 3 days stay. I would recommend staying at Barrington's to anyone, just be aware some of the rooms are a bit smaller, but other than that we had a perfect stay here.
