HERENHUIS RESTAURANT
À la Carte Restaurant Accommodation
in Stellenbosch, Cape Winelands,
Western Cape, South Africa
Located in the breathtakingly beautiful Banhoek Valley just outside
Stellenbosch, Zorgvliet Wine Estate offers visitors an exquisite experience of
gourmet food, award-winning wines and luxury accommodation. The estate was
recently named as one of South Africa's most successful cellars and it also
offers visitors fine dining par excellence.
The original Manor House underwent a complete transformation when the farm was
bought by the Zorgvliet Group of Companies in 2002. Today the building, which
dates back to 1692, is home to the Zorgvliet Herenhuis Restaurant and it once
again boasts a thatch roof to recapture the romantic facade of years gone by.
The driveway has been replanted with date palms to restore the original look of
the house.
The original homestead was saved from complete decay and specific attention was
given to the conservation of existing structures. The preservation of the
ceilings, which were restored after exhaustive efforts, lends a unique
atmosphere to the restaurant. The previous time that the Manor House was
restored so meticulously was in 1860 after the house was virtually destroyed in
a fire. The farm then belonged to Christiaan Frederik Beyers, father of the Boer
General CF Beyers, who was born in the house in 1869 and later became the owner
of the farm.
Visitors can now relish in the nostalgia of yesteryear while enjoying the
unsurpassed beauty of the Banhoek Valley combined with a delectable gourmet
cooking. Enjoy traditional South African cooking with a modern interpretation.
Owner Marietjie van der Merwe compiles the menu that will delight guests with
subtle surprises.
The summer menu includes favourites such as Loin of Venison, Cape Malay Bobotie,
Traditional Oxtail, Chicken Pie, Lamb Rump, Blue Cheese Snails, and a
mouthwatering selection of desserts. The Herenhuis Dishes celebrates the
culinary diversity of the country.We do a delightful Breakfast Menu.
Local artist Robert Koch was commissioned to portray the breathtaking Banhoek
Valley and the Zorgvliet Manor House in a series of seven paintings. These
paintings now form an integral part of the atmosphere and grace each of the
three dining rooms, namely the Banhoek Kitchen, the Beyers Room and the
Bootmanskop Room, referring to the old Cape mariners.
The Zorgvliet Herenhuis Restaurant is open for breakfast from 09:00 - 11:30
