Win a Two-Night Stay + Dinner for Two at Erinvale Estate Hotel & Spa Worth R15 000
Winner announced! Congrats to Patrick Paalman who won this fabulous prize.
By Inside Guide • 02 February 2026
The spectacular mountainscapes of the Helderberg are the backdrop to a tranquil stay at Erinvale Estate Hotel & Spa. Neighbouring the leafy wine estates of Vergelegen, Morgenster and Lourensford, and surrounded by its own gardens (and a Gary Player-designed golf course next door), a boutique country feel is the secret to Erinvale’s appeal.

Luxurious rooms, a destination spa and wellness centre, and a cluster of restaurants at the heart of its Cape Dutch manor house, it’s a place you can happily cocoon and unwind in total tranquility. And it’s also the ideal base to explore this scenic corner of the Winelands, with its historic wine estates just a stone’s throw from both mountains and beach.
A new dining experience

At Bloom, the intimate new 30-seater dining room that flows onto an alfresco terrace, Chef Sebastian Smith delves deep into South Africa’s heritage and terroir as inspiration for his seasonal menus. He sources from local organic gardens, small-scale farmers and dedicated artisan producers, creating a sense of place with an inventive and evocative touch, in thoughtful four- and six-course set menus complete with wine pairings.

For more casual dining, Oak Terrace Bistro offers laidback bistro lunches and dinners (as well as serving the boutique hotel’s daily breakfast), and Magnolia Social Dining Lounge is a chic but relaxed local favourite for a tapas-style menu of shared plates and cocktails.
Destination spa

The recently reimagined Erinvale Spa is a sanctuary of relaxation and pampering, featuring four luxe treatment rooms (fitted with top-of-the-range massage beds), a dedicated scrub room for body treatments, a Thermal Suite with sauna and steam room, TechnoGym, relaxation area and yoga studio, plus the centrepiece 25-metre outdoor lap heated pool surrounded by loungers, with majestic mountain views.

If you’d love to experience the tranquil elegance of this luxurious Helderberg destination for yourself, enter our competition below and you and your plus one could win a blissful two-night getaway, with full access to the spa and wellness facilities, and a refined six-course dining experience with wine pairings at Bloom.
