All overnight guests are treated to our Breakfast, which includes fresh fruit parfait topped with homemade muesli and yogurt, followed by hot breakfast of their choice, fresh squeezed juice and fresh brewed coffee or tea.
Lunch and dinner menu changes frequently as the kitchen utilizes fresh produce grown in its own garden. Diners are sure to be pleased with choices such as the rack of lamb, duck confit, aged beef fillet, or our famous kudu fillet.
All pastas are handmade and salad is picked fresh daily. It is often said dessert should be eaten first, for it is not to be missed. Pecan pie is a specialty made with the organically grown pecans from the farm and topped with homemade ice cream.

There are not enough superlatives to describe this slice of paradise. Not only is it in a beautiful setting, but the incredible food, wine and food and exceptional service are second to none. Johan, Trouette (the phenomenal chef) and staff pay attention to every detail, yet seem to do it effortlessly and with such professionalism. The special touches such as vases of beautiful flowers, quality bath products, sweets and petals on the bed at night made our stay even more special. Others have mentioned the off-road tour which we too would highly recommend. Johan is very knowledgeable about the farm, its agriculture and the wine they produce. An example of the exemplary service was on the morning we were leaving. We walked out to the car and one of the staff had washed our vehicle. That has never happened to us before! There is absolutely nothing we didn't like. We ate every meal there and the Chardonnay and the Pinotage wine, recommended by Johan, were the best we have ever had. If we are ever fortunate enough to return to this part of the world, we would definitely stay here. In the meantime, we will highly recommend it to others.
