One of my favourite scenes by novelist Kurt Vonnegut is where he describes the late night bonding between an insomniac war veteran and his faithful dog, where he writes “I let him know that I like him and he lets me know that he likes me.” This simple sentiment is what I wish to express about everything at Hawksmoor House,...

It will be difficult to describe our experience in words, we recently got married at Hawksmoor House and to sum it up our experience was majestically.

We stayed at Hawksmoor for a wedding and although we were a small group, the whole place was blocked out for us, which made it feel very intimate and more special. We felt like we were at home. Kirsten and her team are hands on, yet never invading. I think they even arrange the stunning sunsets for their guests ...!... More

Incredible boutique homestead stay that offers such a lifestyle change to hotel accommodation. Centrally located between Western Cape wine region. Gorgeous, spacious rooms & impeccable service. Extremely well appointed rooms with all holiday stay needs covered. One of my favourite stays away from home, just due to the completely unique accommodation setting. Very highly recommended.

I am delighted I found Hawksmoor! It is a great location from which to explore the wine region; staff were incredibly helpful with suggestions/bookings for restaurants and other vineyards to visit. The wine-tasting at Hawksmoor was the best I had of four that I did. The house is set beautifully at the end of a long drive with a pool... More
