About Rockjumper Country House

Rooi Els is a charming seaside village along Route 44 in the Cape Overberg region. Nestled near the striking Hangklip rock face, it is the first coastal settlement beyond Gordon's Bay. This quaint village, with its narrow, unpaved roads and absence of streetlights, is bordered by the Kogelberg Nature Reserve and forms part of the renowned Kogelberg Biosphere Reserve.

Each room is furnished with comfortable beds, high-quality linens, and bathed in natural light.
