The historic Weltevrede Farm is home to Stanford Hills Cottages, a mere stones throw from the quaint village of Stanford.

Rejuvenate your spirit in this tranquil retreat, surrounded by fields of fynbos, vineyards and olive groves. Let the star-filled heavens dazzle your city senses, and be intoxicated by the fresh farm air.

The Tasting Room Restaurant, open 7 days a week (08h30 to 17h00) is situated in a unique, quaintly restored labourer`s cottage.
