This elegant Cape-Dutch-style hotel is situated in the heart of historic Stellenbosch, the centre of the Cape wine region. It was built between 1692 and 1701, and its buildings, restored in 1987, have been declared national monuments.
Retaining all their old-world charm, the buildings are fully air-conditioned and offer guests the most up-to-date modern comforts. Seafood and game is available in the Seafood Restaurant, and casual eating in the Brasserie, with its side-walk tables.
A thatched-roof conference centre caters for up to 40 delegates. Nearby attractions include visits to the wine estates, mountain hikes, riding and a championship golf-course. Wine tours are organised by arrangement.
