Built in 1927 to a Sir Herbert Baker design, the Elgin Vintners Country House has been restored to its former glory, boasting luxurious country living in Elgin.

Accommodating up to 10 guests in four luxury suites, the house is child-friendly and gives guests the run of the property. Of the 4 suites, there are 3 two-sleeper units and 1 four-sleeper family unit. The Syfret Room is the perfect honeymoon suite and boasts old-word charm and rich Cape heritage. The room comprises a king bed and an en-suite bathroom with a bath and a shower. The Denniston Room is furnished with hypo-allergenic linen, down feather duvets, plush pillows and a king size bed which can be converted to twin beds, as well as an en-suite bathroom with a bath and a shower.

The Hahn Suite is a family suite which comprises 2 interlinked bedrooms and a shared bathroom with a bath and a shower. The first bedroom has a queen bed and the second bedroom has a king bed or 2 single beds. The Browne Suite is perfect for business travellers. It comprises a queen bed and a bathroom with a bath and a shower.

Each suite offers Wi-Fi, tea- and coffee- making facilities, and a lounge area with a TV with DStv.

The English country garden is the perfect place to experience the expansive view of the encircling Hottentots Holland and Kogelberg mountains. Take a stroll across the sweeping lawns to discover the secret fairy garden, explore ancient trees and hidden places, and enjoy the sensory explosion of the abundant flower beds in the terraced garden first planted in the 1920s. Explore the orchards, vineyards, hiking and mountain biking trails around the farm and along the Palmiet River or enjoy a game of tennis and a relaxing dip in the pool.

"We needed a break but it turned out to be more stress. We booked the Dennisten Room but got to stay in the Brown Room which was an overnight room."

Check in should be before 17h00 as gates closes at 19h00. Due to unforeseen circumstances, we could not make it for 17h00 and I contacted the Guest House at 15h00 to make arrangements. On arrival, we collected the keys as per arrangement with Marisa and luckily it was before 19h00 and the gates were still open. We were the only guests. Very scary. One chair in the room. I could help myself at the honesty bar to a bottle of wine. Must admit, the wine was good. Wine was on the floor, no table. Had to do makeup in the bathroom all steaming up. My blow dryer was on the coffee station as that was the only plug near to a mirror. We left after breakfast. Upon our return, our room was not serviced. Bed was not made. Dirty towels still in the bathroom. No clean towels. The next day there were quite a few people checking in only to overnight. They received the suites. When I eventually got to see Marisa as we were checking out, she did not apologise. Her excuse: The rooms were all the same size. That was not what I saw. The feedback to my booking agent was; I did not contact her to make arrangements and therefore she thought we were not coming anymore. However, I was offered a free wine tasting or a bottle of wine delivered to my home. Regarding the cleaning; they do not go into guests' room because not everybody trusts strangers to go into their room. But they refilled the coffee and the curtains were open.
