B | Africa
Created in honour of our President and Founder Beatrice Tollman
Harnessing the power of nature
The B | Africa product line was created in honour of Beatrice Tollman, Founder and President of The Red Carnation Hotel Collection, who says: “The unique natural locations of each of the Red Carnation properties are encapsulated in our B | Africa products and treatments, which harness the essential, lifegiving properties of Mother Nature’s rich bounty to calm, detoxify, nourish and energise body, mind and spirit.”
Panoramic picnics
A handful of secluded picnic sites within the hotel’s fynbos gardens offer wonderful mountain and ocean views, with plenty of outdoor space and fresh air for keeping children entertained. Order a bottle of Champagne to toast a birthday, anniversary or other special celebration against a spectacular sunset backdrop. Our luxury picnics also provide the perfect ambiance for a romantic date night.
The perfect proposal
A much-loved landmark within the gardens of The Twelve Apostles Hotel and Spa is the remarkable geological feature known as Stanley’s Rock. Shaped by millennia of wind and rain, this piece of naturally-sculpted granite is named for Stanley Tollman, husband of Bea Tollman, founder and President of The Red Carnation Hotel Collection. With its impressive views out over the Atlantic Ocean, it has become an especially popular choice for sundowners, picnics and romantic marriage proposals. Stanley and Bea's lifelong love story certainly sets the tone for a successful marriage.
Mountain picnics & trails
If you are looking for a low-key walking trail to accompany your picnic, easy pathways meander through our fynbos gardens, leading to a handful of unforgettable picnic sites. Equipped with tables and sun umbrellas, these mountainside locales offer dramatic sea views and provide the perfect location to indulge in a sumptuous picnic basket.
