The historic and tranquil White Water Farm is situated in the rural Kleinriver Valley, 10 km outside of Stanford and within 30 minutes drive from Hermanus. The farm has mountain views and offers wedding and function facilities.

Everything was exceptional. The smell of the room was divine. Service from check-in to check-out was perfect. Jordan was very helpful and friendly. Loved the breakfast! The kitchen has everything you need, they have thought of everything and more. White water is peaceful and very safe to take walks or trail runs. I thoroughly enjoyed relaxing at the beautiful pool. I have finally found the perfect place to take the time out that was needed and I can't wait to return.

Situated in Stanford, 29 km from Village Square, Springfontein Wine Estate features accommodation with a garden, free private parking, a terrace and a restaurant. Featuring a bar, the property is located within 21 km of Vogelgat Nature Reserve. The hotel has an outdoor swimming pool and free WiFi throughout the property.

I just stayed at one of the cottages at Springfontein wine estate, the Fisherman one! I fully enjoyed it, very peaceful and serene. It was the perfect getaway I was looking for... and I discovered their wines! A great place to stay, eat, and just chill out of Cape Town. Well done to the team, thank you for taking such good care of us.

    We loved the location (very quiet and peaceful), and the cottage was cozy and comfortable. There were fresh flowers all over the cottage! We loved being able to bring our dog. Hosts were super friendly and accommodating. Lots to do close by as well, and you can do horse-riding on the farm as well. We also went hiking and swam in the dam, which was a lots of fun.

    Delightful cottage with attention to detail in an eclectic decor that is a delight to be in, coupled with high functionality. If we had stayed a week I wouldn’t have tired of ‘seeing’ new elements of this extraordinary space with verandah and lovely private garden outlook. Easy to find with super hosts. Walking distance to main street but quiet and peaceful.

    We based ourselves at Stanford for a work offsite for 3 days. Amazing hospitality & flexibility from management and staff. Catered to our needs, and had a fantastic venue in the Ouhuis for our strategy sessions - best location for meetings out of the dozens we have experienced. Quiet, peaceful and comfortable.

    We loved our stay in this divine, super clean little cottage in the heart of Stanford with easy access to lovely walks and the main road. The kitchen is really well equipped and the beds super comfortable, the pool defnitely a win. We loved sitting under the willow tree watching the sunbirds, so quiet and peaceful. Our host Collette was very attentive and easy to communicate with.

    The peace and quietness was exactly what we needed. Being a small luxury lodge was a bonus.

    Location: you can go biking, walking, hiking. Its safe to walk everywhere, and the quiet.... was just so nice (listening to the night sounds like on a farm) The tiny little fireplace (now in winter) Only a few kms away from the quaint little town of Stanford. Excellent restaurant conveniently situated on the premises
