Elmarie and her team/colleagues were brilliant. Super friendly and very helpful. I great example of what South African hospitality can be. Thank you to everyone for looking after me so well. If in the Stellenbosch area and you are looking for a convenient, comfortable, professional place to stay, look no further than L'Avenir Country Lodge. The breakfast and lunch was also great and overdelivered for a business stay.

A really beautiful experience, from our accommodation, to the wine tasting, the Boule, the pool, the stunning views of the lakes and vineyards, and the most amazing people who work there. We stayed in the Honeymoon suite, which had everything we needed on the inside. Our private outside area had a splash pool, an outdoor shower, and a quaint secret sitting area, just beyond the boundary wall. We had a most amazing evening. Breakfast was fantastic. We sat outside overlooking the pool and one of the lakes/dams below. All in all, an experience to remember

Stopped for wine tasting and platters - our host, Dine left a remarkable impression with her knowledge of not only the wines, but also the surrounding area and its offerings - this in all likelihood one of our best wine tasting experiences, because of Dine - the staff in general are of the friendliest ever experience - the platters were impressive, and we will certainly return - well done Dine.

I came here with my partner for a peaceful, relaxed few days at the end of our holiday. Unfortunately, however, the vinyard decided to host a pop up cinema event at the same time as our stay, with 100s in attendance, a little over 10m from the rooms terrace. This did not end until 11pm with dance music blaring. This shows that the hotel thinks little of its guests and is more interested in profits from the pop up cinema. Other than that, the rooms are OK but need updating, especially the bathrooms, and the pool is dirty and unusable. The staff were great, but hard to get hold of, and the breakfast was homemade, simple and delicious. This, however, would not make me want to stay here again, and I'd advise others to stay elsewhere. The WIFI is also terribly slow.

The lodge is "tired" - it needs a bit of TLC and while the staff were friendly our welcome was poor. The room was acceptable but the curtains had come loose and what appeared to be a complimentary bottle of wine was not!

The location and the hotel are amazing, big rooms, amazing pool. However we had a terrible check-in and check-out experience. The Staff hasn't welcomed us properly, it just seems they wanted to get rid of us as soon as possible. For this reason, I wouldn't recommend to spend a night in this place.

This wine farm is absolutely a hidden gem and we really discovered it by accident as they were one of the last places in the Stellenbosch area having accommodation left for the long weekend in September for two couples. From the word go we were extremely impressed. I made a huge mistake with the dates of our booking and Elmarie at the country house was immediately willing to rectify the problem. The rooms are great. We opted for the pool facing rooms. They had a tiny verandah overlooking the pool. The rooms are superiorly clean. Maybe one suggestion. Make the single beds a double bed. Breakfast was a feast. The pool area just stunning. We were showed around the grounds and were mesmerized. Wines are surprisingly good. We will definitely be back.

My low rating is as a result of.......the TV was broken non functional, no hotwater in the bathroom.There were, no tea or coffee cups, or coffepods avaiable for the Espresso machine. The hotel allowed guests to enter the public swimming pool with wine glasses and bottles , whilst owners claim no responsibility for any injuries to guests.

This is a wonderful place to use as a base for visiting the many wine estates around the Stellenbosch area. The accommodation is comfortable and thee staff are friendly and efficient, most notably Angus the night duty manager and the young lady (I forget her name) who runs the wine tasting. We had an Icon room with plunge pool and outside shower. The outside amenities could be a little more private, however, and a few guests would wander past our courtyard and were able to look in.
