    Great breakfast with lots of options. Very friendly staff who took great care of us. Big, spacious room with a comfortable bed. We went for a run through the farmland which was really nice.

Anton de Kock
Blue Gum Country Estate is both a working farm dating back to 1839 and a private, family-run guest house located in the quaint and historic town of Stanford. We pride ourselves on offering visitors a unique experience in a welcoming environment.
Stanford is a historic town, with the Kleinrivier running through it and panoramic mountain views. It is also just 30 minutes from the sea-side town of Hermanus, and is ideally positioned for couples and families looking for a laid-back getaway in a quaint and historic village. There are a multitude of antique stores, restaurants, vineyards or coffee shops. For the adventurous – horse riding, boat cruises, hikes, bird watching and Great White Shark Cage diving are all within a 20km radius of the village.
