Great place with super nice staff. Great looking estate. Our stay in the 'fisher man's hut' was great. Very nice food / restaurant.

The food was ok, not great. The breakfast was so-so.

Lovely grounds, nice cabin, good wine, pleasant atmosphere. We stayed overnight, but 2 nights would have been better.

A desk would have been welcome. The very bright lights on the front of the main building diminished the impact of our stargazing.

The Fisherman’s Cottage was a delight. Small but great for a one night stay. Loved the personal touches - a warm note from the team and lavender flowers dotted throughout.

The shower was rather difficult to control, burning hot or freezing cold but we enjoyed the fact it was open to the sky.

We loved our night in Fisherman's cottage, nestled away at the bottom of the garden with stunning views and a comfortable bed. The staff were friendly and helpful.

Beautiful little place, off the beaten path. Stayed in the fishermans hut, which was so cool and traditional. Super quiet and peaceful. We were treated like royalty with lots of extra touches like biscuits in the room, a welcome drink on arrival and lush dinner by the fire

The room was stuffy upon arrival, and no windows were open (probably to keep insects out). There were no fans in the rooms (probably for eco-friendly reasons). The rooms were close to a road, which was quiet, but fast-moving vehicles could still be heard in the room. The breakfast offering could be improved—the standard was very average and not commensurate with the room cost. Despite being called the River Room, the river was far away - lots of bullrushes but no water nearby. The swimming pool was disappointing - it wasn't clear if it was a black pool with patches or just dilapitated.

The spacious rooms, being so close to nature, cleanliness and the ease of parking.

The weather was a little too cool for us to use the open-air shower, but the bathtub in the bathroom, with underfloor heating, was very acceptable.

The breakfasts were splendid. Our accommodation was in The Fisherman Cottage - a genuine relic, completely authentic from the outside, very comfortable and pleasant on the inside.

We stayed in Milkwood cottage, which was lovely! Spacious and very comfortable. We had dinner in the restaurant one evening, which was excellent. The food (and wine) was great and the staff attentive and charming.

This place is such a gem, it's hard to describe it in a few words! Lovely people, lovely food, lovely rooms, great wine, and absolutely nothing to mention that was negative. If you're looking to switch off, enjoy nature yet have a place close to hermanus come here, it's beautiful! They have brand new accommodation so check those out as well!

We spent just one night at the Springfontein Wine Estate, but it left us wishing we could stay longer. From the moment we arrived, Nozi greeted us at reception with a warm smile and friendly welcome, setting the tone for our stay. The staff’s friendliness and willingness to go above and beyond made a real difference. Special thanks to Zinhle, the manager, who even started a fire in our cottage after dinner, making the evening even more cozy. Busi attended to us during dinner and breakfast, ensuring our meals were served with a personal touch. The food was excellent, offering great value for money, and the flavors left us thoroughly impressed. Walking around the farm was a delightful experience, with beautiful views and serene surroundings providing the perfect escape. Springfontein Wine Estate is not just about great wine; it’s about exceptional service and a welcoming atmosphere. We’ll definitely be back!

Unfortunately, I had booked the Wortelgat restaurant for dinner and paid a deposit but the restaurant was closed when we arrived. It would have been good to be informed of this beforehand, but Ulumbaza wine bar is beautiful, and we had a delicious meal.

This is an absolutely breathtaking wine farm. I was so blown away by the friendliness of the staff, and their wine knowledge is exceptional. Thank you for going the extra mile and making my fiancé's 50th so special.

Small detail items such as hand wash soap were omitted. Breakfast was underwhelming.

Good facilities and location
