About Us History

Zorgvliet Wine Estate in the Banhoek Valley

Welcome to our haven. Five kilometres outside Stellenbosch in the heart of the winelands you will find a place of serenity and ultimate luxury. Zorgvliet Wine Estate nestles in the Banhoek Valley overlooking majestic mountains and rolling vineyards.

The unique contemporary Cape Dutch architecture blends in with the authentic Herenhuis Restaurant dated 1692. Today Zorgvliet boasts not only award winning wines but also 18 five star vineyard lodging rooms and two restaurants.

Here you can experience what living on a working wine farm is all about or you can simply indulge in the consumption of the fruit of the vine. You can enjoy wine tasting and barrel sampling in the modern wine cellar.

Experience the magical ambiance of a mountain braai or picnic at the foot of the Simonsberg. At dusk the valley becomes tranquil and filled with magic, the mountains are painted in the colours of our rainbow nation as the last rays of sunshine greet the valley good night. Sundowners on the stoep of the Herenhuis is a must experience as is dinner at this historic house turned restaurant.

The magic of the Banhoek will be with you when retiring to your vineyard lodge overlooking the moonlit valley. Share our haven and you will never be the same again as you will become a beholder of the spirit of the Banhoek Valley.

The Zorgvliet Group’s brand promise of 'special experiences for special people' is alive and well in the Banhoek Valley.
