Quiet with spectacular VIEWS of neighbouring vineyardss, orchards & Mountains. Our style is typically “hygge”. A Danish term for simple relaxed and quiet tranquility. Guinea fowl and turtle doves wake you gently to enjoy another day in Africa, set in a farming village and surrounded by the best the Cape Winelands has to offer. 4 luxury rooms, quality linens, most with aircon. A little country house with beautiful views where guests come to relax and be still, NOT a glitzy hotel nor a spa, not the place for a party, no drugs, marijuana, bubbly bubble or similar allowed on the property Scrumptios breakfasts Mon-Sat only, as our staff also needs time off. Breakfast is complimentary with most full-rate bookings and EXCLUDED on all discounted/budget rates. Menus include a fruit and yogurt platter, Chef’s choice breakfast of the day (changed daily), something from the bakery, toast, preserves, tea and Jacobs coffee. Plunger coffee avail SQ. If you prefer the usual bacon and egg breakfast daily or a large buffet, rather eat at a restaurant. Dinner&lunch ONLY avail on 48 hours notice If your party is boisterous & unruly, we are not your option. No nudity. No Noise. No self catering
We are business people who escaped the maddening city life. We are birders, love to find remote gravel roads to negotiate with our Landie. I love cooking and enjoy gardening. Hubby enjoys his Rugby. We want to share our piece of paradise with like-minded guests who enjoy quiet country life. We have a zero tolerance to drugs, prostitution, hubbly bubbles are not allowed, dagga/marijuana is not allowed.
Wellington is in the heart of the Cape Winelands and home to many wineries, restaurants and some morning markets where you van find good food, wine and home made crafts. The Breytenbach theatre offers many shows and art exhibitions. For the adventurous there are mountain bike trails, horse riding, canoeing and hiking or trout/bass fishing in the mountains. Other activities include chocolate tasting, various wine parings, whisky, beer and brandy tasting. We also partner with and arrange Shark Cage Diving, Whisky Tasting and SPA treatments with industry leaders, Close-by we have some of the best schools in the country like Paarl Boys and Girls High, Paarl Gymnasium as well as CPUT university, Boland Rugby stadium, Dal Josafat Stadium, Hugenote high and primary. Wellington's main street leads into Bainskloof pass, a scenic drive passing swimming and hiking venues. This is a modest town with strong family values. Absolutely NO drugs, marijuana, dagga, weed, psychedelic or other substances allowed on the property. Absolutely NO noise, no parties, no nudity, no prostitution. With apologies to guests whose values concur with ours. Pool and public areas to be vacated by 10pm
