Merindol Manor: Chenin Room
The epitome of old-world elegance, this beautiful boutique hotel happens to be one of the oldest heritage homes in the Riebeek Valley. It’s stately, stylish and luxurious, with four spacious double rooms (Voignier, Shiraz, Grenache and Chenin), as well as an expanse of gorgeous landscaped gardens, a sparkling pool (surrounded by classic black-and-white checkered tiles) and its own private olive grove. There are fresh fruits and vegetables in the garden, while the eggs in your sumptuous breakfast come courtesy of the hotel’s happy hens.
Good to know
The entire Manor House can also be booked for exclusive use, along with the charmingly renovated Barn, which sleeps an extra two people.
