“Ask, and you shall receive” — and receive we certainly did.

While our roads experienced some overflow, we are grateful to report that all is well at Portland, and the water is slowly beginning to recede.

Our thoughts are with everyone across the Garden Route who has been affected by this weather system. We hope you remain safe, warm, and looked after during this time.

From all of us at Portland, stay safe and take care. 🗻

Dearest Readers,

Allow me to introduce myself. I am Lady Portland, your humble correspondent and keeper of stories from the winding paths, whispered conversations, and curious encounters along the Portland Camino.

Each week, I shall bring you tales from the trail—stories of weary wanderers, unexpected friendships, hidden treasures, local legends, and the remarkable moments that unfold when one chooses to walk.

Whether fact, folklore, or a delightful blend of both, you may find me sharing the happenings, mysteries, and memorable characters that make the Camino so enchanting.

Until next week’s dispatch, keep your boots laced, your eyes open, and your sense of adventure close at hand.

Yours faithfully,

Lady Portland

A little smoke, a little citrus, and a whole lot of flavour.

Silky smoked salmon layered with creamy cream cheese, crisp pickled radish, bursts of lemon, salty capers & fresh rocket — plated to perfection. 🍋🥬🐟

From preparation to the final touch, every detail tells a delicious story.

The storm may have shaken The Garden Route, but it also reminded us of the strength of community.
While Portland Manor was fortunate to escape any serious damage, our hearts are with everyone across Cape Town and the Garden Route who faced loss, flooding, and devastation during the past few days. 🌧️

As the skies begin to clear and the calm returns, we’re grateful to share that Portland Manor is safe, our systems are back online, and bookings are officially open again.

To every team, family, farmer, and community member still cleaning up and rebuilding — we are thinking of you.

Here’s to brighter days ahead, steady hands, and the beauty of resilience after the storm. 🌿✨
