I booked a stay on the estate for one night because I wanted to do a wine tasting I arrived lunch time and was shown to my room in the manor house. The room was spacious, but looked a bit shabby. The self catering kitchen also looked very tired and the honesty bar was non existing. The food in the... More

We stopped here en route to Franschhoek. I LOVE wine tasting and could not keep passing wineries without stopping so we pulled in here. The grounds were nice with great backgrounds for photos. There were few people around. The tasting room was small and overall unappealing. Nothing seemed very "distinct." The wines were average. The staff was friendly and attentive.

Returned here after four years and felt the place was a bit run down and shabby. They did not really promote the wine tasting which is what we all came for. Dirty tables and very poor service. We were really disappointed on this occasion by the service we received. They seem to depend more on the restaurant and weddings rather... More

Here you are able to shade beneath trees and enjoy a wonderful light lunch with great wines. Well worth a visit.

A lovely wine estate, but be prepared to take your time over the wine tasting - it took about an hour and we were rather concerned that we might miss our lunch booking - the tasting fee is R20 each for 5 wines. They have some nice wines, but most seemed rather 'young', perhaps because they are used to exporting... More

I enjoyed the fact that there is a small chapel on the estate in which to have the ceremony. However, the venue for the reception was a long narrow room, which made hearing speeches and feeling part of the occasion a little difficult. I also felt that the tables were too close together, making movement within the room fairly restricted.... More

We dropped in to taste and buy some wine en-route from Paarl to Stellenbosch. Good tasting experience and some very good value wines on offer. Lovely location. Then we went for a bite of lunch - nice venue, outside under the trees. Good service, excellent value food and wine at the same price as the cellar door! What a great... More

We brought friends here from overseas for lunch and they were so impressed with everything. The venue is so peaceful, the service excellent - a big thank you to Duard and Akram and the food was really good. We have been several times and will continue to visit especially when in need of getting away from it all for a... More
