Summerwood Guest House - Stellenbosch

More sumptuous than a guest house and more homely than a hotel. Hilary and Malcolm Forbes invite you to enjoy the comforts and tranquillity of Summerwood. This unique mansion, originally built in 1904, was designed by an Italian architect and has been lovingly restored to meet the demands of the modern traveller.

9 en-suite bedrooms, each individually and tastefully decorated to provide the warmth and relaxation that only a home can satisfy.

Enjoy a leisurely breakfast in our country-style diningroom, or on the patio overlooking the gardens. Take a refreshing swim in Summerwood's pool, unwind with a drink under the shade of our much loved Stinkwood tree and leave your hosts to make reservations for dinner from a selection of some of the finest restaurants in the country - all within close proximity of Summerwood. Only 20 minutes from Cape Town Airport.

We are proud to have been awarded a 5 STAR grading by the Tourism Grading Council.
