Luxury Hotel Accommodation
Lynton Hall - Inkanyezi Suite
Inkanyezi is now one of the most popular rooms at Lynton Hall . It is one of the largest suites in the house and was created during the last addition to the house in 1935. The bedroom was built above the newly created school room. The room that is now the bathroom was designed as part of a covered porch that was later enclosed and used as a games room. Ronald Munro Ferguson remembers cHall enging his siblings to many games of table tennis here during their childhood holidays at Lynton Hall .
Lynton Hall - Tower Suite
How surprised Charles Partridge Reynolds would be to see this part of Lynton Hall as one of the most popular suites in a five star country house hotel. When he commissioned the architects Street-Wilson and Fyfe to design a Scottish baronial residence befitting a sugar baron, the tower room was included to house three enormous iron water tanks. These served two functions. Firstly they could be used to fight fire if the burning of the cane fields got out of control and secondly they provided water to sustain the family in the event of a Zulu uprising and siege. The narrow spiral staircase gave added protection for a “last stand”.
When the tanks were removed a void in the roof was discovered and this now houses the bathroom to the Tower suite. Lying in the bath one can gaze up at the stars through the heritage roof lights. With windows on two sides the bedroom overlooks the entire property, down to the ocean and is the perfect place for a romantic getaway.
The suite, situated on the 2nd floor of the Manor House comes equipped with heated towel rail, hair dryer, television (with DSTV), mini bar and private safe. It also has air-conditioning and fans. Teas, coffees and other hot beverages are personally served to suit your convenience.
Lynton Hall - Nicholas Suite
A beautiful North-facing suite with views across the wide lawns towards the swimming pool. One can soak up the luxury of the king size four-poster mahogany bed and rise listening to the birds awaken with the first rays of the sun. The Nicholas Suite is named after Nicholas Reynolds, the grandson of Sir Frank and is a magnificent suite with a split-level bathroom equipped with double basins and separate bath and shower.
Lynton Hall - Reynolds Suite
This was the original main bedroom of Lynton Hall , where the lady of the house always slept and was named after Lynton Hall 's creators. The suite's entrance Hall announces the large bedroom with an elaborate, and much requested, king sized four-poster Indian mahogany bed. The room also has a beautiful feature fireplace, superior en-suite bathroom accommodating a separate bath and shower, and the most magnificent views of the Umdoni golf course and the Indian Ocean . The suite faces East and provides the early-bird with stunning views of the sunrise.
Lynton Hall - Umdoni Suite
This suite is named after the golf course, which it overlooks. With breathtaking views of the grounds, tennis court and onward to the Indian Ocean , the Umdoni is a suite for those who fancy an absolute treat. The bed itself is in the Indian colonial style of being very elevated, needing a stepping stool to climb up onto it. It has a comfortable sitting area for those who need time to relax indoors and opens into a spacious, open plan bathroom containing bath/shower and double hand basins.
Lynton Hall - Umhlali Suite
Named after the small town of Umhlali on the North Coast of KwaZulu Natal where Sir Frank Reynolds was born, this suite is tastefully decorated with an Indian Raj-period antique bed. North-facing, with views across the northern lawns, this suite also contains a beautiful bathroom with double hand basins and separate bath and shower.
Lynton Hall - Umqai Suite
The Umgai is a very special, large and spacious suite with a king size four-poster Indian Raj bed. Its outlook is South down the expansive grounds towards the new luxury suite building and on towards the stables. The large bathroom has double basins with a separate ball and claw bath and shower. Named after Sir Frank Reynolds' daughter's estate, which was renown for its magnificent gardens, but unfortunately was bought by a sugar company and no longer exists, having been turned into cane fields. The Umgai suite provides a very special luxury stay for those who appreciate the unique blend of Colonial and Indian traditions.
Lynton Hall - Sezela Suite
Definitely something unique, and much photographed, this suite opens a whole new dimension in room décor. The magnificent antique Indian teak arch dominates this superior suite, separating the bedroom from the lounge and fireplace. It has a king size four-poster South Indian antique bed, made with only the finest linen in Lynton Hall 's signature style. The spacious bathroom is fitted with double hand basins and separate bath and shower. It has magnificent views of the western and southern garden, carriage house, labour bell and water gardens. Sezela is named after the village where Sir Frank Reynolds built his sugar mill.
Lynton Hall - Rowarth Suite
This suite is named after respected artist, Edward Rowarth who used to often frequent Lynton Hall and stay in the artists' cottage on Umdoni. We are fortunate to have several of his paintings on display within Lynton Hall , ask any of the staff and they'll point them out. His suite is most notable for its splendid views over the gardens and objects d'art scattered into loose collections around the room.
