The hotel

Seemingly lost in the vineyards and foothills of Jonkershoek Valley, this hideaway is wrapped in hypnotically beautiful scenery – but is just five minutes from the historic town of Stellenbosch. Since the first vines were planted more than 300 years ago, Lanzerac Hotel & Spa has become a haven for oenophiles. And its legacy lives on, with its ancient oak trees, historic wine collection, original design features, and time-honoured viticulture techniques still used on this working wine farm. You can drink in vineyard views from your elegant room, which opens onto the estate’s gardens. And you can drink in the world-famous Lanzerac wines in the tasting room, after a tour of the bottle-lined wine cellar. On the off-chance you fancy a break from the wine, you can indulge in spa treatments or relax in the gardens with a picnic from the gourmet deli.

A special place being a vintage vineyard to 5 star standards but the staff are even more fantastic. We were late for our complimentary wine tasting and Cellar tour due to traffic but this was not a problem and a special outside normal tour was put on for us so may thanks (Sambione?). Additionally my wife needed to see a Doctor having had a bad cold for over a week. The front of house sorted a Doctor to come to our room and arranged for the prescription to be brought to the room. Truly outstanding service. Many thanks to the whole team. Read less

We had a very relaxing and enjoyable stay, including tasting menu with wine pairing, and cellar tour. The property is beautiful, the rooms could not be faulted and the staff were exceptionally friendly, helpful and knowledgable.
