Fitted with period furniture the exquisitely refurbished Manor House at Weltevreden Estate offers guest accommodation at a world-class standard. There are four elevated bed chambers upstairs under a cosy thatched roof. Our beautiful self-catering 2-bedroom farm cottage is the perfect place to unwind over a weekend or for long-term travel accommodation during your visit to the Winelands. Our newly renovated, river cottage is tastefully decorated and very spacious, situated on the edge of the river.

Inspired by farm produce, our on-site restaurant Jonkershuis 1817, puts spin on hearty and wholesome country fare. Many of the dishes are inspired by seasonal vegetables and herbs from a farmhouse kitchen.
