About Dunstone Country Estate

Dunstone Country Estate and winery is located on a working wine and fruit farm on the outskirts of Wellington in the picturesque Bovlei Valley, less than an hour from Cape Town. This 10 Hectare farm produces award winning wines and offers amazing scenery in complete tranquillity

Dunstone Country Estate has three different accommodation options – Dunstone Country House, Dunstone Manor, and The Cottages.

Dunstone Country House:

Five beautifully-appointed guest suites are the original Dunstone guest rooms; they are housed in the converted stables and a stable farm cottage. The rooms delight guests with stunning views of the mountains, vines and the farm. From your private entrance and veranda, enter a little home-away-from-home, with all modern comforts and all the extra touches for which Dunstone has become renowned. These enjoy the comfort of a beautiful guest lounge overlooking the mountains and vineyards with wrap around views and an infinity pool overlooking the vineyards and mountains beyond.


Dunstone Manor:

A new addition to the Estate is the recently acquired, original manor house. A stately three bedroom house on the southern rise of the farm, set amongst lush gardens, towering shady oak trees, and vineyards. This beautiful property has an air of tranquillity, making it the perfect retreat.
The property can either be rented as a private house sleeping 6 – 8 persons on a B&B or self-catering basis, or as individual guest suites on a B&B basis.
The three individually decorated bedroom are housed on the first floor and offer beautiful views over the gardens, vineyard and mountains.
Downstairs is a gracious guest lounge which opens out on to a pretty stoep with its own sun drenched pool.

The Cottages:

Guava cottage is a self-catering cottage amongst the guava orchard, it boasts its own Viognier vineyard outside the front door. Guava has 2 king-sized bedrooms, a private garden and private heated swimming pool. Guava can also be taken on a B&B basis.

Vine Cottage is a new addition on the southern slope of the Estate. Originally stables, it is tastefully converted into a pretty one-bedroom cottage, a very private escape for 2. Guests at Vine cottage have access to all facilities at the Country House, on a B&B option.
