Merindol Manor

The wine-producing region of the Riebeek Valley is at the heart of the Swartland and brims with wine growers and olive oil producers. It’s here, in Riebeek West, where you’ll find one of the oldest houses in the valley – the beautiful, luxurious and owner-run Merindol Manor. The house has been fully renovated and modernised yet still retains the charms of yesteryear. Four gorgeous rooms are available, each boasting a four-poster bed, Egyptian cotton linen, tea & coffee making facilities and a range of other touches, making you feel right at home. Wood features prominently in all the rooms and combines perfectly with modern and African accents and textures – undoubtedly where old meets new. Marvel at mountain, pool or garden views from most of the rooms. Take a stroll in the beautiful gardens with their abundant olive and fruit trees, or relax on one of the loungers alongside the sparkling pool – the perfect place to cool off during warm summer days. Visit the many vineyards in the area for wine-tasting, or take in the natural surrounds while hiking or biking. Day trips to the Cape of Good Hope and Hermanus (among others) can be enjoyed. The guest house has its own vegetable garden as well as egg-laying hens - the aim is to produce delicious, wholesome breakfasts each morning, as well as sweet delights such as waffles and French toast. Come and enjoy this gorgeous region in the lap of understated luxury with hosts who are committed to showing you the warmest hospitality.
