Olivier

Description

L'Olivier is truly a first-class country retreat situated near Stellenbosch in the heart of famous Cape Winelands. The beautiful olive and wine farm is 74 hectares in size and offers the utmost in privacy, relaxation, scenic beauty and stress-free holiday living. On two levels, the Georgian villa features lavish extravagances and much more than all the necessary comforts and amenities a discerning holiday traveller could possibly desire.

Living, kitchen and dining areas of the villa boast classical décor subtly intermingling contemporary comfort with timeless African art works. The spacious lounge opens onto a beautiful patio which extends into the privacy of enormous garden grounds and the pool area.

From the double volume entrance hall an impressive staircase leads to the four tastefully furnished luxury bedrooms in the upper floor, each offering ample space, stylish en-suite bathrooms and panoramic views of the beautiful olive trees and lush vineyards blanketing the Estate.

The relaxing country ambience of the villa is well complimented by the enormous, manicured garden featuring a glistening generously sized swimming pool and there are numerous scenic forest walks just waiting to be explored.

Secluded from the main villa, 2 cottages can accommodate more guests – or be rented out separately. Forest Cottage sleeps two, has an en-suite bathroom and is a romantic and popular honeymoon suite. Olive Cottage has two en-suite bedrooms and sleeps four.
