BRENAISSANCE WINE AND STUD FARM

Stellenbosch, Cape Winelands

Nothing is small-scale here, yet the Manor House is a much-loved family home filled with collectables, art and sculpture. The welcoming farmhouse kitchen is a chef’s dream, and the 12-seater dining table in the central living area is surrounded by unusually large fossil reliefs of a giraffe, ostrich, prehistoric bird and frog by artist Toby Megaw, cleverly offsetting the 5m-high ceilings. A grand hearth roars in winter, and in summer glass doors on both sides open to magnificent entertaining areas and the pool garden …. an utterly private oasis just ten minutes’ drive from the historic yet hip-and-happening university town of Stellenbosch, bustling with street cafes, boutiques and beautiful people.
