Summerwood is a clean, friendly and value oriented property to make your home base to explore South Africa's wine lands.
~ Mango Opinion
More elegant than a guest house and more homey than a hotel, Hilary and Malcolm Forbes invite you to enjoy the comforts and tranquility 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 traveler.
Nine tastefully furnished and equipped en-suite rooms are each individually and tastefully decorated to provide the warmth and relaxation that only a home can satisfy.
Enjoy a leisurely breakfast in the country-style dining room, or on the patio overlooking the gardens. Take a refreshing swim in Summerwoods 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.
Only a short stroll from the historic center of Stellenbosch with its museums, shops, pavement cafes and art galleries, Summerwood is easily accessible to the wine routes, a number of golf courses and many fine restaurants. The Jonkershoek Valley only 5 minutes away, offers hiking, mountain biking, fly-fishing and horseback riding. The property has been graded 5-Star by the South African Tourism Grading Council.
