Gorgeous cottages, stunning views, facilities and breakfast!

Fantastic wine farm with amazing accommodation options, mind blowing breakfast, outdoor activities and lovely staff. Stunning

Perfect place for an active yet relaxing weekend. Only wish we could have stayed longer.

Great staff. Very cute and fully equipped cabins. Very family friendly.

Wonderful experience from start to finish. Werf suites were awesome. Restaurant great , wine tasting fun and picnic unique

Check in process was not great - we checked in late but the keys to the doors were not working and it took over an hour for someone to help us get in.

We stayed at Boschendal as the first part of a 2-week South Africa honeymoon and we could not have imagined a better place to spend the first few days of our marriage! Our cottage was stunning, comfortable, quiet and luxurious. The breakfast provided was incredible. The service is some of the best we've experienced ever. The property is exquisite. The activities are plenty - hiking, horseback riding, wine tasting, picnicking, etc. This is one of the most special properties I've ever stayed at on vacation and glowingly recommend it to everyone!!

Orchard Cottage and service were great. Food and wine were disappointing.

We stayed for 3 nights at the end of our trip in SA. I regret spending so much money on this stay. The cottages are all connected with no sound proofing. The retreat is popukar with families with small children , the toddler next door cried every night. By 6.30am both kids would be up and running around, so I never got a good night's sleep. When sitting outside you would hear children shouting, running and crying. I love kids but when I book a retreat cottage I envisioned peace and quiet and there was none to be had. The other problem with the cottage was a fruit fly infestation. I asked several times for a deep clean but all we got was a mosquito candle. I uses the bug spray that was in the kitchen, which helped a bit but than we had dead flies everywhere, including the fridge, which wasn't cleaned. The retreat cottages have a separate restaurant for breakfast. The juice, yoghurt and coffee are amazing but the rest is just okay. 2 mornings there was only 1 kind of bread but no tongs so everyone uses their hands to serve themselves. last morning there were 3. They also have croissants, muffins and scones. The muffins were hit and miss, some are obviously saved from the day before, and were hard and dried out. Fruit salad was tasty, I didn't try the cooked food so can't commend. Last morning the springles were on so no one could sit outside because the tablea all gor sprayed, inside was very noisy with several babies and toddlers, so hard to relax.

Absolutely stunning property. Comfortable and spacious cottage for the family with a lovely outdoor area. We enjoyed wine and food from the farm. Would highly recommend.

Glenvin, Maxwell, Randy and the ladies at check in were all incredible! They deserve a raise :). Thank you for an amazing stay

This property is next level amazing. The food is wonderful, the picnics, various restaurants, to say nothing of the wine. We stayed in a retreat cottage which is amazing and well appointed. The staff are great. I was with my wife and four year old daughter and we loved it all. My daughter did horse tours and we just had a truly perfect experience here staying for a week. It’s magical. The property is expansive and offer a lot of great things to do. The kids club is out of this world. The wine region around is so much fun.

Wow - Unbelievable! Room, staff, service- all incredible. Lovely experiences- wine tasting and horse riding both brilliant. The Deli and kitchen facilities were an added bonus.

The location is fabulous and the breakfast was genuinely amazing. The cottage was a bit disappointing to be honest - TV was broken, oven was poor and took ages to heat up, and the cottages have been built to face the rear of the cottage in front, so unless you’re lucky you don’t get a view.

This was up there with one of the best stays I’ve ever had. Staff were unbelievable, as is the food and the setting. I can’t say enough how amazing this trip was, I will definitely be back.

We spent our last night in Boschendal in a werf suite. We were very impressed, it probably had the best bed on our trip. The cottage was well decorated and very well equipped. The staff were friendly and the food at the Werf restaurant was great. I would recommend.
