Vergenoegd Löw: Vineyard Suite

Nestled on the stunning Vergenoegd Löw Wine Estate, this boutique hotel and spa boasts two restaurants (Geuwels and Clara’s Barn), a luxury spa and four fabulous accommodation options: the two-sleeper Deluxe Lodge Rooms in the restored farm manager’s house; the contemporary Vineyard Suites (also sleeping two); the freestanding Luxury Cottages (sleeping four adults and one child under 16), and the opulent Presidential Suite, which boasts a private deck with a 12m x 4m swimming pool, a dual-room fireplace, a jacuzzi and an outdoor shower (sleeping four adults and one child under 16).

All the rooms and suites are beautifully decorated and fully kitted out with flat-screen smart TVs (Netflix and DSTV), Nespresso machines, view-drenched patios and either a private plunge pool or a hot tub (or, in the case of the Presidential Suite, both).

Good to know
Children are welcome in the suites and cottages, but not in the Deluxe Lodge Rooms.
