Our rates include a hearty farmers breakfast or health breakfast. and all activities offered on the farm, such as mountain bike rides, fishing, vineyard walks and wine tastings. We are located at the foot of the Bainskloof Mountain in Wellington, with great views of the Hawekwa Mountains, less than an hour from Cape Town. It is an ideal base to explore the Winelands, Route 62 or simply to enjoy the local offerings. This is the perfect venue for intimate gatherings, family get together’s and romantic getaways. and a shuttle service available.
The farm is home to the owners and several farm labourers' families. The original farm was proclaimed in 1699 and as only the fifth family to hold title, the owners are conscious to maintain its historic integrity and re-establish the tradition of wine making on the farm itself. This can be evidenced in the rehabilitation of the historic buildings and the character of the architecture of the guesthouse and its surroundings.
Our Rooms
The Guesthouse comprises nine luxurious suites each with stunning views from their private balconies or gardens over the vineyards of the Hawekwa mountains. Seven of the suites are doubles and the eighth and ninth can serve as spacious family rooms accommodating four people. Each room has an en suite bathroom with shower. Guests can enjoy a health breakfast or full farmer?s breakfast served in the dining area; which integrates with the wine tasting facility and allows guests to access the working cellar during the day.
Activities and functions
For a holistic view of the wine making process or simply to enjoy the tranquillity of the farm, a number of walks have been set up around the farm that highlight aspects such as the various cultivars of wine grown, the bee hives necessary to pollinate the vines and the dams that catch and supply the farm with all its water. Guests may also fish the dams for bass on a catch and release basis. For the business traveller or intimate function a 20 seater conference room is available for your meeting or party. During the winter months a large fire place with couches provides ambiance for card games or reading while sipping on a glass of Val du Charron?s premium wine.
