Overnight on a Wine Farm
For our guests looking for something different, we have partnered with Picardi Place, a gay-owned and gay-run rustic yet luxurious boutique self-catering guest house, to offer you an authentic South African experience in the most beautiful setting on a working wine farm.
Just an hours’ drive from Cape Town, Picardi Place is the perfect getaway for one or a few nights. Situated on a working wine farm in the Breedekloof Valley and surrounded by spectacular mountains, there are just 5 guest suites, decorated in traditional South African ‘farm style’, so you can experience a very local and intimate environment.
Picardi Place is perfect for those wanting to just relax and soak in the atmosphere and surrounding views or for those looking to be more active, there are stunning mountain trails to walk and hike, numerous wine estates a stones-throw away to have wine tastings at and the sparkling water at the dam is great for swimming.
Jaco, the owner, is passionate about his guests experience and offers both South African & Italian cooking classes, where you can all get involved with creating a delicious South African meal to be enjoyed with a few glasses of wine! Jaco has an organic garden full of fresh, seasonal ingredients, so it is a real ‘farm to table’ experience. Naturally for those not wanting to get involved with cooking, there are lots of great restaurants nearby.
Rates from R900 per couple per night for accommodation. We can provide the road transfers for you too.
