Steenberg

The local area

Set in an exclusive gated community, the Steenberg Estate is set among the rolling vineyards of the Constantia Wine Valley, on South Africa's Western Cape. The Cape is one of the country's most beautiful regions, offering long stretches of sandy coastline, a sun-drenched hinterland swathed in vineyards and wild, rugged mountains.

The villa is surrounded by picturesque vineyards, with its classic Western Cape farmhouse style perfectly complimenting an estate whose winery has won the Best of Wine Tourism Awards. Home to what has been voted the best luxury hotel in Africa, Steenberg has everything you need to relax in indulgence, including a beautiful spa and 18-hole championship golf course. The estate is also perfectly placed to enjoy the wider attractions of South Africa's arresting and beautiful landscape; the epitome of a luxury second home in an exclusive location.

Some of the Best Wine In The World

Steenberg is one of the oldest wine farms in the Cape Peninsula, having been founded in 1682 by German immigrant Catherina Ustings Ras. She was leased the land by then Governor of the Cape of Good Hope Simon van der Stel and settled there with her fifth husband. It changed hands and grew under the supervision of Christina Diemer - a widower who took over the farm when her husband died - who had planted 30,000 vines by 1735. Remaining a wine estate until 1990, it then developed with the addition of a hotel and golf course, and the old farm homestead was declared a national monument in 1983.

What To See and Do In South Africa

Driving the idyllic Garden Route, visiting Table Mountain, marvelling over the elephants at Knysna Elephant Park, identifying rare plants in Pretoria National Botanical Garden and taking a boat trip to Seal Island are all things you can enjoy while staying in our luxury Steenberg villa - but you may not want to leave the estate at all. By taking part in our collective property investment the Steenberg estate will be yours to explore. Here you can soak up the sunshine with a glass of award-winning wine in hand, marvelling at the indigenous wildlife that wanders through.

Food and Drink

The Steenberg winery will provide the most evocative tastes of this beautiful part of the world. The estate mainly produces white varieties, but days could be spent touring the various vineyards of South Africa's Western Cape, collecting your favourite bottles to take back home. Our South African luxury villa also has the advantage of being the location of wonderful fine dining restaurants, where the food and service is exceptional.
