Enjoy a tranquil stay at acclaimed Val du Charron

- Staff Writer

WITH its unmistakab­le mountain views, the award-winning Val du Charron Wine and Leisure Estate is situated in the picturesqu­e Bovlei, 10 minutes from the town of Wellington and under an hour’s drive from Cape Town.

With a history of winemaking dating back to 1699, Val du Charron’s wines are available worldwide but are best enjoyed surrounded by the vineyards themselves at one of the estate’s restaurant­s, on your own balcony at the 4 star Guesthouse or in a suite at the 5 star Coach House.

With only three spacious suites, each with its own plunge pool and private patio with a built-in wood-burning fireplace, the 5 star Coach House is your private space to unwind while overlookin­g the majestic winelands and mountains. Take in the unique design elements such as the natural stone features and striking stained glass window features, and relax in your sensuous spa bath or shower for two – and remember to book your on-site spa treatment to complete the ritual. And why not order in? Enjoy a choice of meals from either of the two restaurant­s on the estate delivered to your patio.

Naturally, you are welcome to make use of all the 4 star Guesthouse’s facilities, from lounge to conference room and pool.

Val du Charron’s 4 star Guesthouse invites young and old, business and leisure travellers to enjoy the beauty of the Cape winelands with all the convenienc­e you would expect from luxury accommodat­ion. With 16 en suite rooms, each with its own balcony, you can soak up the views while you enjoy a cold drink from the minibar or a gourmet coffee from the in-room drinks station.

If you are visiting us to unwind, enjoy a wine tasting and informativ­e cellar tour, tan by the pool in the glorious sunshine, or read a book from the library or play a board game in the lounge if there are clouds in the sky.

A treatment at the spa will melt your cares away.

Children are welcome. Our spacious family room is great for moms and dads and children sharing.

With a pool, jungle gym, splash pad and plenty of place to roam the children will be entertaine­d while you enjoy a wine tasting or fabulous meal at either of the estate’s restaurant­s.

If you have chosen us to get the business done, our 20-seater conference room with projector, DStv, wifi, pause area and fireplace to network by is a great space to conclude that deal.
