Marianne Wine Estate

Perched at the foothills of the Simonsberg mountain outside historic Stellenbosch in the Cape Winelands, this country house wine estate serves vineyard views and easy winery-hopping. You’re minutes from Backsberg Estate Cellars, Warwick Wine Estate, Quoin Rock and Anura Vineyards, with Table Mountain visible on clear days. A great pick for a family-friendly wine-country escape.

Stay in stylish loft apartments or a thatch-roof Manor house surrounded by citrus orchards and vineyards for a true Cape living vibe. Rooms feature refrigerators, coffee/tea makers, safes, satellite TV and private bathrooms with rainfall showerheads; some rooms are air-conditioned and many offer sweeping vineyard or mountain views.

Dip into multiple outdoor pools with panoramic vineyard views and unwind at the on-site winery and tasting room. The property also offers a picnic area, concierge services, gift shop/newsstand, tour desk and kids’ playrooms — plus complimentary Wi‑Fi to keep you connected while you sip.

There’s a business center on-site, multilingual staff, laundry and dry-cleaning services, and free self-parking for guests.

Enjoy a restaurant and bar/lounge on the property, plus a snack bar/deli for light bites. A complimentary buffet breakfast is served daily from 8–10 AM, while the tasting room serves award-winning wines, platters and picnic options that spotlight Cape Winelands flavours and a hint of French savoir‑faire.
