The estate seen from the air, with vineyards, trees and the mountains beyond

The Estate

Our story

Life on the farm

Just under 140 hectares of open land, old farm buildings and eight self-catering cottages. Settle into the quiet and make yourself at home.

Walk the farm, cook from scratch, rest deeply and spend time together.

The Land

Begin with the land

We care for the soil and water that sustain St Croix. We plant, farm and build with respect for the life already here.

The setting

Held by mountains

The Wemmershoek River runs along the farm, with open fields, old trees and the werf at its heart. Mountains fill the horizon.
