The Setting

A wine farm since 1699: Hazendal has been a wine farm since 1699, one of the oldest in South Africa, and the Homestead is its Cape Dutch manor house.
The gardens, and the view: The gardens around the villa were redesigned by the landscape designer Leon Kluge. The farm lies on the Bottelary Hills, looking across its own vineyards to the Stellenbosch mountains.
Stellenbosch and Cape Town, both close: Stellenbosch is about twenty-five minutes away by car, and the centre of Cape Town about thirty.

The Padel Court

Court time, reserved for your group: A stay at the Homestead comes with court time reserved for your group every day, enough to play morning and afternoon. The court is the estate's own, floodlit, in glass and black steel at the edge of the golf course, and open to hotel guests and visitors outside your hours.
Golf, on the same estate: An 18-hole par-3 golf course, a 270-metre driving range with 32 bays and a putting park share the estate with the court.
Coaching, and who comes to the court: You can add coaching to your stay with top local pros we know personally: Cape professionals with competition experience, who teach in English. Every coach we send has played with us or come recommended by someone we trust, and Hazendal has coaches of its own if you would rather use theirs.
