Absolutely wonderful guest lodge. Immaculately run. Fabulous rooms and amazing views. The food was just great and Adriaan & Nicky could not have been more helpful and accommodating. Overall, a wonderful experience in a wonderful part of the world.

An idyllic get away. Gorgeous views, decor and staff. We were completely blown away by everything from the moment we checked into De Zeven. The guest lodge is perfectly located and has great views. The entire place is decorated beautifully and smells divine. The staff were extremely welcoming and attentive throughout our stay, making sure that we had everything we needed. If you are looking for an intimate, yet secluded place to stay then this is the one. We couldn’t have been happier here, the only thing I would have changed would have to have stayed longer than 2 nights! I cannot wait to return to this paradise.

Nice location, lodge is ok. Easy access to wineries. Breakfast is a basic buffet with hot meals as options. Views are gorgeous. Good internet. Needs some attention to details that would have made a difference, such as evening turn down service.

We spent nearly a week enjoying the spectacular views and unbelievable company that De Zeven offers. When looking for a place to celebrate my 40th birthday I knew we were onto a winner once we saw the pictures online… but in truth the pictures just didn’t do De Zeven justice, it was beyond our wildest expectations. From the first welcome the staff were friendly, caring and engaging. The breakfast was delicious, their own wine moreish, the views spectacular, the location was the perfect balance of secluded and close to town. But it is the people (and cat) that make the place feel like home. Nothing was a bother, every question was answered and we are ever so grateful for you superb hospitality. It goes without saying that the basics were covered, impeccably clean, beds extremely comfortable, warm and cared for. Quite simply the finest hotel we have ever stayed in. Keep up the good work you are an absolute gem in the Stellenbosch landscape. We will return as we didn’t want to leave. Thank you Chris and Tracy

My partner and I visited De Zeven Guest Lodge for two nights. It was an amazing experience! We loved meeting Adrian and his team. The service was exemplary and welcoming. The facilities were first rate—the room was well appointed, the bed very comfortable, and the bath and shower incredibly relaxing. The surrounding scenery was awe-inspiring! Such a special part of the world. We enjoyed the common areas, especially the fireplace. De Zeven Guest Lodge is a great base to explore Stellenbosch and surrounds, including the incredible wineries. Highly recommended, and we hope to be back soon!

This is truly a resort for those guests that have an appreciation for the finer things in life - the views of the surrounding mountains are spectacular - staff under the leadership of husband and wife team, Adrian and Nicky are remarkable - the rooms and facilities are worthy of 5* rating - it should be considered a must visit for at least 2 nights.

We stayed at De Zevern as part of our honeymoon trip and it met all of our expectations. It was a stunningly beautiful place with amazing far reaching views. The pool and pool area is beautifully kept with lovely plants all around. The breakfast and patio areas are beautiful with lots of interesting artwork and books to flick through. All of the staff were very friendly, welcoming and helpful. The room was nice and spacious with a sofa area, big bath and lovely bathroom. Comfy bad and a fantastic view! De Zevern is in a great location to explore the local vineyards then get back to the lodge to enjoy a glass or two and take in the view. All in all it was a wonderful place to stay and will highly recommend it to anyone wanting to stay in the area.

Everything about De Zeven was exceptional. Probably the most beautiful place we’ve been both inside and out. Our room was gorgeous with incredible views of the mountains and surrounding landscape. The staff was wonderful as well. Could not have had a more wonderful experience.

We look back on 5 wonderful days in this professionally and at the same time warmly managed accommodation. The morning begins with a small but very high quality breakfast buffet, which includes a variety of fresh fruit in addition to very high quality meats and cheeses. The scenery with the unique view of the valley and the mountain landscape is breathtaking. The day can be spent in the numerous very nearby wineries, in the lively student town of Stellenbosch (about 10 minutes away by car) or by the pool in the middle of a lovingly landscaped garden. In the evening, there is the possibility to order an inexpensive cheese platter and to fall back on various wines of the house. The prices here are very fair. We were also impressed by the beautiful room and the very kind staff. If you are looking for a place to dream, relax and atmosphere and at the same time do not want to do without a certain comfort, this is exactly the right place. We look forward to visiting this retreat again soon.
