Review:
It might take a bite out of your wallet, but if you're looking for
luxury in Hout Bay, this is the place.
Run
by UK expats Mark and Julia Fleming and opened in 2005, the Tarragon is
hidden behind tall trees and a large gate at the end of a road outside
of town. From the minute you walk in, the place oozes money - not in
the grandiose over-the-top way, but in its sleek, modern, understated
style. There are colorful decorative pillows, the bathrooms are
finished with slate, the headboards are black, etc.
Each
of the rooms have names. My personal favorite is Angelica, which sleeps
six people and boasts a large living room, fireplace and bookshelf.
The
grounds are wonderfully green - as is the water's tinge in the koi
pond. Only this and an unfilled fountain were eyesores - everything
else matched the beauty of the surrounding mountain view.
