2.  Spier Hotel & Wine Farm:

A 2-night weekend stay for 2 including breakfast, a massage, wine tasting, dinner & lunch at Spier Hotel & Wine Farm, valued at R8 500

Spier Wine Farm:

What does more than 300 years of winemaking heritage taste like? Find out when you sample Spier’s accoladed vintages at our lakeside Tasting Room. Once you’ve soaked up the views of the majestic Helderberg mountains, it’s time for lunch! What’s it to be: sprawling with a picnic basket under the oaks, or feasting on low-and-slow roasted meats and vegetables at Vadas Smokehouse & Bakery? Fresh salads and sandwiches from the Farm Café or flavour-filled classics at the Spier Hotel Restaurant? Whichever you choose, we know your tastebuds will be delighted. 

Our farm is your playground. Explore our pastures and vineyards on foot, bike or Segway. Let your little ones loose in the Elemental Garden or among the Werf’s granite boulders – or take them to meet birds-of-prey at Eagle Encounters, our raptor rehabilitation centre.

Art is everywhere. Ranging from soaring sculptures to contemporary canvases, these works have been created by both the unsung heroes and the leading luminaries of South African art.

If you’re not ready to leave, we’ve got that covered too. After a pampering spa treatment, rest your head at Spier Hotel.

Spier Hotel: 

Spier Hotel, situated on the historic Stellenbosch wine farm which has been ranked within the top 100 vineyards in the world, is the ideal family-friendly location from which to explore the Cape Winelands. The village-style hotel caters to guests’ every need, from rest and relaxation to adventures for kids and adults. The rooms are clustered around six courtyards, each with its own swimming pool. The hotel is a pioneer in responsible tourism and was one of the first in South Africa to be awarded the Fair Trade in Tourism SA accreditation in 2004. In 2011, Condé Nast Traveler World Saver Award recognised the estate as the top international destination ‘Doing it All’.  In 2015, Spier was voted 18th Condé Nast Traveler 2015 Readers’ Choice Awards list of the top 25 hotels in Africa. It was awarded gold at the African Responsible Tourism Awards 2016 in the category of Best for Accommodation for Responsible Employment, as well as gold in the Responsible Business category at the 2020 Inspirational Africa Responsible Tourism Awards.
