Beautiful home - homely touches and comfortable to stay in. Great facilities - every kitchen appliance imaginable. Great location - just opposite the wine tram station and just down the road from the main street. We actually stayed in and had a braai both evenings as we loved the house so much. Robyn was a great host too, very helpful throughout our stay.

This villa features a private pool, a garden, barbecue facilities, free WiFi and free private parking. The property is non-smoking and is situated 28 km from Stellenbosch University.

We couldn’t fault the villa. If anything, it exceeded our expectations and in many ways the pictures don’t do it justice. We stayed for 8 nights and by the end of that stay we felt like it was home! The view from the extensive terrace at the front of the property is absolutely stunning! It is equipped with everything you could ever need and having the addition of the pool table, library and swimming pool was wonderful. The process of checking in and out was so slick and if we ever had questions or queries Tamlin replied within a matter of seconds. We would definitely recommend this property to anyone looking for a relaxing family getaway.

Looking for a vacation home?

Great for families or large parties, vacation homes are privately owned accommodations, available for long or short-term rental. These homes are furnished and equipped with kitchen facilities, though breakfast might be offered as an add-on. These properties have their own independent front door, which makes them different than apartments.

    Property was very clean and had everything you would need for a short stay. We only stayed one night but I could see this being a place you could have longer stays at. Very spacious and the bed was so very comfortable! The fireplace was also a big plus as the weather was quite miserable so it was lovely to sit on the couch in the evening with the fire going and a glass of wine in hand! Surroundings were also beautiful and it was extremely peaceful.

    We spent 2 nights at the "Leopard lodge", by the lake, and we are happy with our choice! Our apartment was on the first floor and was big and bright, the furniture was very typical and original. Fully immersed in the South African vibe. The terrace has view on the lake, the mountains behind, just great. Everything was very clean. The car can be parked just outside the lodge, for free of course.
