Escape to Stellenbosch for nature-infused luxury.
Along a picturesque single-track road winding through working vineyards, Jordan Wine Estate is a nature-infused Winelands escape that feels totally away from it all, yet is in easy reach for exploring Stellenbosch and Cape Town.
Contemporary luxury
A birdsong-serenaded oasis overlooking a willow-fringed dam, the family-owned farm is cupped in a natural amphitheatre of the Bottelary Hills, a unique winemaking terroir with spectacular views in every direction. Peaceful and serene, a cluster of contemporary suites overlook a venerable vineyard and are hugged by indigenous gardens. And there’s a secluded swimming pool tucked next to them for lazy summer-afternoon dipping.
March accommodation special
If you’re tempted to book an impromptu late-summer getaway this is perfect timing. Throughout the month of March, enjoy a 15% discount on the room rate when you book direct. Rates include breakfast at The Cellar Door, a wine-tasting for two people, and a R1 000 hospitality credit towards food and/or wine on the farm.
The lodgings
Choose between a classic, deluxe or superior suite, or book a two-bedroom suite if travelling with family and friends. Each is individually designed and decorated (most with wood-burning fireplaces) to make a beautifully serene retreat where the only background noise is the birdsong.

Things to do
Explore the farm in the wine safari vehicle on a guided tour with tastings in the vineyards, or book the safari vehicle for a private sunset wine drive. Go mountain biking on the farm trails (which connect with the Bottelary Hills Mountain Bike network). Book a gourmet picnic in one of the secluded pods by the farm dam and linger all afternoon enjoying the views and bird sightings. Savour relaxed farm food at the Cellar Door on the deck and terrace soaking up the same splendid views, or embark on a culinary adventure with chef Marthinus Ferreira at The Jordan Restaurant. A wine-tasting is not to be missed and you can book a guided cellar tour to delve deeper into the winemaking processes.
The birdsong, views, mountain-fresh water, vineyards and stories at Jordan create a serenely beautiful ambience for a soul-restoring Winelands escape.
Good to know Jordan is just 25 minutes from Cape Town airport and 45 minutes from the city centre.
