“Joy is what happens to us when we allow ourselves to recognize how good things really are”

Marianne Williamson

Welcome to Zoetendal

A place where provenance, terroir,
and good taste converge in a sublime lifestyle experience.

At our estate on the banks of the languid Nuwejaars River, we invite you to explore our premium vineyards and fine wines, and feast on culinary delights paired with the perfect wine. We offer luxurious accommodation in the gracious old Manor House, along with invigorating hiking and biking trails, leisurely birdwatching and game drives, bracing canoe adventures, and indolent picnics on our river front. And you’ll discover the most blissful backdrop for your special event, situated as we are in a distinctive floral kingdom, where proteas are the centrepiece of our collection.

While the Zoetendal origins story is one rooted in resilience and survival, it’s the warmth of our people, the beauty of the surrounding landscape, and the rich experiences we offer that make any stay at Zoetendal a remarkable one. The Zoetendal world is one of celebration, whether it’s weddings, water sports, or wine tastings
– and those in search of quality and beauty are always welcome.
