Festive Season Events
Christmas in the Cradle at Forum Homini
Forum Homini Boutique Hotel is offering a festive, gastronomical Christmas experience for those who are not taking part in the mad rush out of Johannesburg for December.

On Christmas eve guests begin the celebrations with chilled mulled wine and mince pies on arrival. For dinner the festivities start off with a six course Christmas eve celebration dinner, which has been specially designed by the renowned and award winning roots team to tease, tantilise and surprise the most discerning palate. This menu promises to be a gastronomical celebration of taste and texture.

Instead of driving back to Johannesburg, why not spoil your partner by staying over for a night or two, to really get that well-deserved-break feeling, in one of the deluxe suites and enjoy a continental breakfast served in-suite on Christmas Day. After a morning of leisure, a memorable festive six course lunch will be served on 25th and the remainder of the day, if you have any energy left, can be spent soaking up the sun at the swimming pool which overlooks the lake. That evening, a prawn braai at the pool will end the perfect Christmas day!

Wake up to a delightful champagne brunch on the morning of 26 December, which will be served from 10h00 to 14h00.
