Evolution of an icon
In 1984 Alla and Allan Wolf-Tasker opened the doors of their 40-seater weekend only restaurant that had taken three years of (weekend) building to complete. That restaurant has now truly come of age and is part of the Lake House small luxury hotel complex complete with picturesque accommodation, 10,000 bottle cellar and Salus Day Spa.

Art in residence
Renowned artist and Lake House Co-Owner Allan Wolf-Tasker’s huge colourful canvases adorn the walls of the rooms and suites and his on site studio is open for guests to visit.
