Detailed Reviews
We have known the winery for several years from wine tastings and the excellent wines. This time we stayed overnight for the first time and were simply thrilled.
It was an unforgettable experience of the highest class.
The friendly and attentive staff and the hospitality made us feel welcome.
Our cottage had everything to make our stay "like at home". It was very clean, the beds very comfortable and many small additional details contributed to this special experience. There were even ice cubes ready for us in the fridge, just waiting to cool down the delicious wine as a welcome gift.
The location is unique, the area is breathtaking and the peace and quiet is indescribable.
We will definitely be back.
Many thanks to the whole team who made this wonderful stay possible.

This establishment has the best self catering facilities we have encountered to date, anywhere. The furnishings and the equipping of the kitchenette were top class. They seem to have thought of everything required for a perfect 'home away from home' experience. The cottages are in well manicured garden,decorated with very tasteful statues, and the view of the mountains surrounding the Tulbagh Valley was spectacular. Being able to purchase and enjoy award winning wines produced on this estate is just the 'cherry on the top'. In addition the complimentary bottle of wine and a cheeseboard of locally produced cheeses in the cottage set the tone for our stay.. Saronsberg is doing everything right to ensure a memorable stay.

A wonderful place to take family away for a winter break. Nice big beds, electric blankets and aircon all made the icy winter weather bearable. Would definitely recommend for a family getaway.

This was our second time staying at Saronsberg and we wouldn't hesitate to return. The setting is beautiful, and the cottages are very well appointed with glasses/kitchenware/crockery etc. The indoor and outdoor braai are a lovely touch, and it would be easy to self cater for several days without issue. Complimentary milk, water, tea/coffee and delicious Saronsberg olive oil and spices were provided.
The linens and towels were of a good quality, and Charlotte Rhys toiletries are provided. The wifi worked well, as did the air con (bedroom only).
The pool area was always clean and tidy, and was great for a dip. Pool towels were provided.
Every member of staff we encountered was friendly and engaging (our housekeeper was particularly lovely).
We did a wine tasting at the tasting room which was a lovely, relaxed experience.

Saronsberg Cottages are absolutely fantasic! The cottage is well equiped, it has doors both sides which can open to allow airflow and the bathroom is delightful.
The airconditioner in the bedroom is very welcome!
Being able to go for a swim or loung on a chair in the sun is about as good as it gets.
The staff are friendly, the wine is fantastic.
Would wholeheartedly recommend.

The best way to experience Saronsberg Vineyard Cottages is to go there. The attention to detail is remarkable at the price point. Little touches like a bottle of their wine, bath salts and candles in the bathroom , dry wood - all are extras we appreciated.
And then the experience of staying on the wine farm - it’s very special.

We stayed at Saronsberg twice now and the cottages are clean and well equipped with all the basic needs to start one off with ie. salt, sugar, coffee, shampoo, shower gel etc. Staff are friendly and see to one's needs. Well situated and beautiful setting. Relax on the lawn at the cellar where good wine and cheese platters can be enjoyed if not in lockdown. Will stay there again.

We stayed at Saronsberg Vineyard Cottages for a night as part of our "Wine Trip", and what a lovely experience. The cottage was well kept and included lovely perks such as a fireplace (which was much appreciated due to the cold brought on by the snow on surrounding mountains), additional discount coupons for various activities in the area, and a complimentary bottle of Saronsberg. We took part in the cellar tour and wine tasting on the premises, which was a lovely addition to our trip. The grounds are well kept with panoramic views of the vineyards and surrounding mountains. The location was perfect, with easy access to town and other vineyards in the area. Overall, we had a lovely stay and will definitely be recommending to friends and family

We've been to Saronsburg a few times now and as a travel agent, I've sent clients a few times too. Myself and my clients have always been impressed with Saronsburg Vineyard Cottages, the rooms are neat and tidy with comfortable self catering kitchen. The pool is beautiful and has amazing views and the staff especially Luciana are accommodating and friendly. There are lovely activities nearby and delicious wine tasting on the farm. We stayed 4 nights this last time and I only wish we could have stayed a bit longer!

Luxury units which are so well equipped. The staff are all friendly and go out of their way to ensure you have a good experience. The location is fantastic for walking, cycling or just savouring wonderful wines and relaxing in the tranquil setting. And only an hour away from Cape Town.
