Encompassing an exclusive 5 star, boutique hotel, wellness spa and winery set in its own vineyard, Leeu Estates is set in the scenic Franschhoek valley. This elegant and private hideaway, surrounded by landscaped gardens, offers 2 swimming pools, 2 fine-dining restaurants, and a wine-tasting studio to showcase the estate's vintages.
Leeu Estates have beautifully refurbished a 19th-century Cape Dutch manor which houses 23 luxuriously appointed rooms and suites, taking a central position on 108 hectares of vineyards, landscaped gardens and fynbos in the Franschhoek valley. Contemporary yet classic, each room is individually styled and filled with customised architectural detailing. Many have their own terraces and fireplaces. Guests can enjoy their meals in either of the two restaurants, Le chêne or La Petite Colombe. For art enthusiasts, the Everard Read Art Gallery is also located at this property.
