Win an Overnight Retreat for Two at The Cellars-Hohenort Worth R12 000
Winner announced! Congrats to Marcelle Liebenberg who won this fabulous prize.
By Inside Guide • 17 February 2025
Taking time to pause, reflect, unwind and just breathe feels like a luxury, even more so when embraced by the serene garden setting of The Cellars-Hohenort, where magnificent camphor trees, winding woodland paths, rose gardens and vines weave their magic.

The iconic five-star hotel’s Restorative Retreat package is designed with relaxation in mind, a one-night escape from the world. It encompasses a soothing spa treatment, a gourmet dinner at The Conservatory restaurant, a nutritious breakfast and all the garden-drenched peace and tranquillity a soul craves.
Garden view luxury

A peaceful sanctuary of utmost comfort, each of the luxury rooms has its own character. Rooms in the Cellars Main House are decorated in contemporary style that speaks of country house comfort, while those in the Hohenort Manor House are inspired by the Edwardian era. Verdant garden views delight the eye throughout. Yoga mats, resistance bands and guided relaxation exercises are provided to start your retreat by slowing the pace to gentle.
Spa spoil

A haven of serenity tucked among the lush gardens, the Fresh Wellness Spa provides a place to truly unwind. Included in the Restorative Retreat package is a 30-minute neck, back and shoulder massage that eases away the strains and tensions of everyday life.
Dinner for two

After wandering the gardens in afternoon sunlight, and perhaps lounging beside one of the swimming pools with a book, or finding a shaded bower just to sit and contemplate the view, the evening awaits. Head to The Conservatory for a gourmet two-course dinner in the chic and leafy decor of the signature restaurant and feast on beautifully presented seasonal dishes.
A fresh start

In the morning a nutritious breakfast with a cornucopia of delicious options (including detox juices) is served in The Conservatory or in the comfort of your room, so you feel relaxed, revitalised and beautifully nourished as you complete your stay.

If this sounds like your idea of a dream escape simply enter our competition below, and you and your partner stand the chance of winning a one-night restorative retreat in a tranquil garden view room, complete with a gourmet two-course dinner, a spa treatment and a nutritious breakfast.
