Trogon House and Forest Spa

Trogon House and Forest Spa is a bed-and-breakfast guest lodge set among the treetops of a private indigenous forest reserve in The Crags, near Plettenberg Bay. The address is Animal Alley, next to Monkeyland, in the Tsitsikamma area of the Garden Route. The setting combines forest accommodation with an on-site spa, giving the property a nature-focused character.

The lodge is built with thatch, stone and other natural materials, with glass walls and roof windows that bring the surrounding forest into the living spaces. Elevated construction creates a tree-level perspective, while the forest reserve provides a natural backdrop for a slower, more secluded stay. The atmosphere is suited to guests looking for accommodation that feels closely connected to its surroundings rather than a conventional town-based hotel.

Accommodation is offered on a bed-and-breakfast basis, making Trogon House a practical base for exploring the attractions around The Crags and the wider Tsitsikamma region. The nearby Animal Alley precinct includes Monkeyland, Birds of Eden and The Elephant Sanctuary, while Plettenberg Bay is approximately a 15-minute drive away. The town provides access to beaches, ocean-based activities and a broader selection of places to eat.

The forest spa adds a relaxation element to the lodge experience, complementing the natural setting and treetop design. The property’s architectural style keeps the forest central to the stay, with natural materials and open visual connections rather than a heavily formal hotel aesthetic. It suits travellers seeking a forest retreat, a bed-and-breakfast base for local outings, or accommodation paired with spa time.

Trogon House and Forest Spa is located at Animal Alley, The Crags, Plettenberg Bay, 6602, South Africa. Reservations are handled by email or telephone, and the lodge also provides online booking through its own website. Wi-Fi, satellite television and backup for lighting during load shedding are listed among the available practical features.
