تمت المراجعة بواسطة @hulindlovu: I felt like royalty staying in this historic manor. The interiors are moody and gorgeous—especially that copper tub! Spending the afternoon tasting wines under the giant trees was the perfect reset. It’s quiet, luxurious, and totally worth it for a romantic escape.

5 أشياء يجب معرفتها قبل الذهاب
💡The owner's dogs are a fixture—they will likely greet you, which is a pro or con depending on you.
💡There is no reception desk; you often find your key hanging on the door or get instructions via WhatsApp.
💡The 'River' mentioned in some old marketing is more of a stream at the bottom of the garden.
💡It's located on Blaauwklippen Road, which can get busy with wine farm traffic on weekends.
💡The 'Manor House' rooms share a courtyard, meaning your neighbors might be right outside your window.
