Cape Winelands Hotel

 

The lush green valleys of the Cape Winelands are peppered with historical towns, preserved architecture, monuments, art galleries, quaint fruit orchards and even butterflies. Time runs just a little more slowly. Every year, tourists from all over the globe flock to the South Africa winelands to lose themselves in a sea of cheese, wine, strawberries and olives. It truly is a food lover's paradise. Travellers usually overnight in one of the lovely Franschhoek hotels or Stellenbosch hotels.

For those with a bit of energy, there are a variety of activities which can get the heart racing.  In and around the popular towns like Stellenbosch, Franschhoek and Paarl you won't need to go far to find ways to keep yourself entertained. While the beautiful golf courses attract their fair share of visitors, newer sports like mountain biking and 4X4 riding have just started to take off in the area. There are some well-marked and highly recommended routes quite close to the major towns. If you are feeling brave enough, you can even try a wine tasting bicycle tour!

Wine tasting in South Africa is of course among the most revered ways to while away an afternoon. There are over 200 cellars for you to sample from, so it's always best to get an early start! Particular South African wine favourites in the area include pinotage, sherry, port and brandy.

For the true wine enthusiast, you can even choose to spend the night now on a few farms that have opened up guest cottages onsite. The combination of spectacular views and luxurious South Africa wineland accommodation has proved a winner among guests.
