ETERNAL, EMBRACING Experience the eternal, enduring beauty of our precious, tranquil corner of Stellenbosch. For millennia, sea breezes have cooled the ancient soils, speckled with marine fossils and minerals. For eons the land has provided a haven for wildlife and for wanderers. And more recently (for the past almost 330 years) it has become a thriving hive of farming, and luxury hospitality. INTIMATE, IDYLLIC AND ROMANTIC It’s also one of the most idyllic spots anywhere, even chosen by the judges of the 2024 Boutique Hotel Club Awards as the world’s Best Honeymoon Hotel, highlighted as a “romantic escape steeped in South Africa’s renowned wine heritage”. Abundant in indigenous habitat, with generous gardens, open skies, expansive vineyards and gloriously enfolding and embracing mountains, it exists as a world of its own.
