Zavenwacht is set up as a resort though I stayed there on a business trip to Cape Town. It is an hour or two drive away from Cape Town depending on when you are travelling. The views, the service and the food was worth the drive! To be able to come back from a day of meetings, sit on the... More

The 2008 Syrah is great and has won many awards. The farm is set in a beautiful location with a lovely cape Dutch house. Julia was friendly and knowledgeable about the wines. The housing around the farm is also beautiful

I stayed in the Vineyard Cottages. This is a stones throw from the staff quarters and we were treated to noisy car stereos from time to time. Our queen sized bed sagged badly in the middle and both my wife and I suffered back pain. The pillows were lumpy too. The warning signs were there - pay upfront or you... More

We stayed at Zevenwacht over a weekend to enjoy the Spa. The rooms and amenities are nice enough but the hotel is hopelessly outdated when compared to similar offerings in the Cape winelands, e.g., Asara. It also does not help that breakfast is served at the restaurant down the hill. The restaurant itself is nothing to write home about, food... More

Friends of ours stayed for the weekend and we joined them on the Sunday morning for breakfast before heading out on a wine tour of the region. The "restaurant" only serve booked guests and you have to make reservation to join guests staying at the hotel (stunning views from the hotel and the spa, we were sucked in and shown... More
