Steenberg Hotel & Spa

There’s nowhere better to sit back with a chilled Sauvignon Blanc and toast the Cape Peninsula other than the Steenberg Hotel & Spa. This boutique historic hotel has been restored to reflect its 17th century roots, but with contemporary facilities and personalised service. It’s a place to relax and indulge, just 30mins’ drive from the hustle and bustle of Cape Town. Here you can take your time to stroll through manicured gardens and follow your nose to a secret sensory garden. Explore cycling or running trails and golfers may be tempted to play a round or 2 on the championship 18-hole golf course. For total relaxation, head to the world-class spa for a blissful retreat in a stunning setting. Country charm is complemented with gourmet cuisine and the estate’s own wines. Indulge in delicious food at Tryn restaurant, with its bold and modern interior, gorgeous views, and a relaxed atmosphere. There’s more to tempt you at Bistro Sixteen82 with seasonal produce, inventive dishes, and late-afternoon tapas. Whereas the lounge bar is the place to be for sunset aperitifs on the terrace. As you’d expect, the wine is absolutely exquisite. Tasting sessions are ideal for finding out more and discovering your own distinctive favourite. Enjoying a morning by the pool or a round of golf, followed by an afternoon of wine tasting does not get any better. Although Steenberg Hotel & Spa is just down the road from Cape Town, it’s a world away in terms of peace, tranquillity, and those verdant vineyard views.
