On arrival, I felt part of this family business right away. Gracious old buildings, with newly refurbished individually styled rooms, some modern, some classic. Their award winning wines are made by owner Bernard himself - so special.

From Cape Town Via Paarl Along the N1
This is the fastest route from Cape Town if coming from the City, Northern Suburbs and follows via Paarl, Du Toitskloof Pass, either by Toll Tunnel (fastest) or by scenic drive over the pass, onto Worcester.
On approaching Worcester, take the 2nd turn-off to the right into Worcester, marked direction Robertson, as one avoids all the traffic lights in the Main Road. Follow road over train bridge, and turn left into High Street at the 2nd Traffic light. Bearing right as the next traffic light it’s the turn-off Robertson/Ashton/Montagu and follow the road through these towns to Montagu. Once in Montagu take the 3rd turn-off to the left which is Church Street and we are to the top of the road.
From Stellenbosch via Franschhoek
A beautiful and scenic drive - leave Stellenbosch in direction Franschhoek, traveling over Hellshoogte pass. Drive over Franschhoek pass on the R45 to Villiersdorp and on the R43 to Worcester. Take the R60 to Robertson, Ashton and Montagu.
From Cape Town Via Sir Lowry's Pass Along N2
This route is advisable when guests drive from Cape Town International Airport - it is easier to get onto the N2 than the N1 from there. Also if guests stay anywhere from Southern Suburbs to False Bay Coast it is the quickest.
The first major town along this route is, Somerset West, which you by-pass and carry on over the Sir Lowry’s Pass through Elgin/Grabouw over the Houw Hoek Pass taking the Caledon turn-off and following through to Caledon, Riviersonderend, and then at a small place called Stormsvlei, turn left and take the route through Bonnievale which eventually joins up with the road that comes from Swellendam.
