Diemersfontein Wine & Country Estate

Place is under construction. Noice of grinding, smell of burning tiles as they are renovating. Restaurant is not functioning and if you have any mobility impairment delay your stay until you can be sure what you book. Have to acknowledge the staff who are trying to make the best of impossible situations. We are checking out earlier than planned

Wow! What beauty and tranquility! The guesthouses are most definitely better than the 4 stars rated. Friendly staff, great food don't talk about the wine Best Pinotage I've tasted. Had the privilege of meeting Mr Sonnenberg.What a legend

We recently got married at Diemersfontein and had a fantastic time! Because we live in Berlin, we had to plan the entire event remotely for a year. Celeste Klem, the events coordinator, was especially warm, professional and amiable throughout, making the process very pleasant. Our families loved the accommodation and felt very well taken care of by the staff. We had enough space to house both families as well as the majority of our international guests. It was really valuable to be able to book the entire venue and have it all to ourselves on the day. The venue itself was really beautiful. From the garden ceremony to the courtyard reception, we were given golden memories that will last forever. The food was always top class and the orginal pinotaage wine was worthy of all the awards it has received. We were really proud to be represented by the farm and would highly recommend it to anyone planning their special day there.

We visited from England We went for a family meal and from the time we arrived to when we left, we loved our visit. The staff at the security gate were very friendly. The hope restaurant was beautiful. The restaurant staff were extremely tentative to our needs and so professional, welcoming and nothing was to much trouble. The food was outstanding. Beautiful plates of food which tasted even better than it looked. Everyone's food was delicious and even when we were full, we just wanted more. There was a great choice for everyone. There are plenty of vegetarian choices! The wine choice (we had Chenin blanc which was amazing) was the same list as the winter tasting, so you could have a bottle of your favourite with you meal. Apparently, it's under new management and the new chefs must be so passionate about the food they serve. Well done to everyone, it was our favourite meal of our holiday. Definitely a must visit if you are in the area

We stayed at Diemersfotein for one night with our little toddler (2 years old). The staff went out of their way to welcome us and to cater to our every need. The rooms were very comfortable - definitely old school charm! The gardens are spectacular and we spent some time at the pool. The food at the restaurant was delicious and our little one loved playing in the fountains and petting the owner's very sweet dogs! Would definitely recommend Diemersfontein.

We were fortunate to be given a gift of the Diemersfontein Harvest Supper/Dinner and a night in the guest house. The event was lovely; beautifully laid out tables, great food, a most interesting tour of the wine cellar and talk by the wine maker; and clean and comfortable bed and room for our overnight accommodation. All the food was well-presented, but I must commend the chef on the excellent fillet steaks for the main course. Having read other reviews of the farm I agree that this is a very special place. We had decided to walk on Sunday morning and as usual had asked permission, so we headed out for what turned out to be a short epwalk as it was a very hot day 32deg. My advice to anyone walking/hiking there would be to start early. My husband said, after 3km, that we should turn back. A large glass of water and tea/ coffee at the bistro afterwards. We were just too full after breakfast to eat lunch there but I was pleased to note that the menu had fillet steak on it. Lunch is available Wednesday to Sunday so we will be back for a midweek walk/hike and lunch.
