A multitude of formal wine routes meander through some of South Africa’s oldest towns, historic hamlets and legendary wine producing areas: Stellenbosch with its stately Cape Dutch homesteads, Franschhoek (the French Corner and gourmet capital of the country) and Constantia, the cradle of South African winemaking.

Wine tasting is the order of every day, best savoured in the company of family and friends along with farm-to-table cuisine that brings local flavours to life in an atmosphere of indulgence and appreciation for the finer things the land has to offer.

While it’s easy to get lost in the wines, the Cape Winelands also offers a wide range of other activities to fill any spare time. Art galleries and sculpture gardens showcase exceptional creative talent; museums tell the stories of times gone by and the rich heritage of this unique country; fruit farms, olive and rose estates provide the opportunity to pick your own; while walking, hiking, cycling and horse riding present more intimate paths of exploration through the exquisite rolling countryside.

Getting There

A road transfer of approximately 1-1.5 hours from Storms River to George airport along the scenic Garden Route is followed by a short 1-hour flight into Cape Town International Airport. From there, the winelands are easily accessible by road - guests can enjoy a 45-minute self-drive to the hotel, or a private transfer can be arranged for a seamless, stress-free arrival.

Return transfers can be arranged to Cape Town International Airport for onward international flights.
