    Great wines, great staff, beautiful place
    Really great time! Very friendly staff, our waiter (Kyle) was very friendly and enthusiastic. The wines were great and prices were very decent. We first had our wine tasting inside the building right next to the big wine tanks (?), and after the tasting we bought a bottle and sat outside on the bean bags. Beautiful scenery, great wine, great time.

    Vinfari!!!
    We had visited Lourensford some four years earlier for ordinary tasting. That was such a nice experience. Now we had booked Vinfari in advance. OK, 650R/person is money - but this experience was worth of every rand! Jaco and Ronel (sorry, if wrong spelling) were excellent guides on our drive around the farm. Enjoyed great wines, saw nice sceneries and learned so much about wines and other agricultural sections of Lourensford. After the drive (during which we saw also animals) there was informative cellar tour and then tasting with magnificient platters - after that there was no room for afternoon lunch (and just little dinner). Tasting was really generous! There are also nice shops on the area - and gardens. I bought some high quality coffee.

    50th Birthday Party
    We attended a friend's 50th birthday party and then attended the Market Day the next day. Food stalls cater for every palate. Well kept gardens and great views. Great vibe all round

    A whole day destination
    Art lovers dream. They have magnificent sculptures and art on the estate. Gardens are beautiful. Little shops to walk through and a spa as well. I would recommend Millhouse kitchen over the smaller coffee shop, service is much better. Wine tasting is worth it and well presented. Don’t miss the Wedgewood store!

We went for lunch and were shocked to find parking barriers at the gate. This is a destination venue, where people are coming to spend money at the wine estate and they are charging for parking! We were shocked and can’t believe a wine estate would charge parking. To top it all off the ticket machine at the barrier isn’t even contactless.

Lourensford is really a beautiful wine estate with lovely garden features, restaurant, coffee barista and wine cellar.

However.....

Why would Lourensford also member of The Cape Leopard Trust allow a big calibre shooting range on their farm? I am living in the Golden Acre vicinity and one can clearly hear the gunshots from the shooting range. Lourensford clearly has no regard for noise pollution or their neighbors. I am not even talking about the wildlife.

One of the best experiences I have had in years with my family. I have lived in Cape Town for 4 years and this is the first time I took my family out here! The atmosphere is great, the food is good, they even roast their own coffee there, which is just as exceptional as the wine. All of this brings back a sense of normalcy in these really difficult times. I just wish I knew about obout is before.Thank you!

I visited the spa with 3 other families members needless to say it was nothing short of amazing. We all had great therapists and throughly enjoyed the treatments. The process was super easy from the get go Marc was extremely helpful with regards to bookings and accommodating us. Definitely worth a try!

The worst spa experience I've ever had. This was a birthday gift it wasn't relaxing at all staff are inexperienced and the treatments were cut short. I would not recommend this spa to anyone what a waste of time and money.

Lovely place to spend a few hours. Some small shops to wander around, a maze to get lost in, and s nice terrace for lunch or just coffee and cake. Friday nights there is a popular artisan market.

Excellent wine tasting with Lloyd at Lourensford. Highly informative and wonderful sense of humour made for a truly special tasting, we could have stayed all morning. The wines were superb and setting exceptional. Thanks Lloyd, you made our day!
