Loadshedding Facilities

What is loadshedding? It refers to the temporary suspension of electricity provided by Eskom, South Africa's electricity provider, to reduce consumption and thereby the load on the national grid. To compensate, South African property owners are turning to solar power, inverters with backup batteries or in some cases generators to keep the power on, wherever feasible.

Glencoy is undoubtedly the very best Guest Lodge we have experienced in South Africa.. We have stayed in many establishments across the country. We had the opportunity of staying in both the Jasmine Studio and the Zola Suite. Both are well appointed and very spacious. There is nothing amiss and the back up power supply against load shedding is seamless. Glencoy is in a quiet street yet close to shopping centres. Roley is a wonderful host. She attended to all our needs. I have no hesitation in recommending Glencoy to Cape Town visitors.
