Albert and Thereza du Toit welcome you to Du Vlei. Experience the unique, warm hospitality of farmers in the heart of the Swartland.
Du Vlei is situated 7km from the picturesque Riebeek-Kasteel, on the bank of the Bergriver. The big original farmhouse, dating back to 1704, was renovated into 4 spacious, fully equipped, self-catering units. The old wine cellar, harness-, mill-; milk-rooms were renovated into luxurious guestrooms.
Relax on the veranda and experience the breathtaking views of the mountains, the Bergriver and the vineyards with the awesome sound of fish eagles crying in the background. A birdwatcher’s dream. All this whilst your children enjoy the huge garden with expansive lawns to play on and a sparkling pool.
Only 75km from Cape Town, 1 hour from Cape Town International Airport; a few minutes drive from several wedding venues; wine/olive estates.
