Allegria ("joy of life") is a luxurious guesthouse, situated in the very heart of the Cape Winelands, only 6 km outside Stellenbosch. The beautiful setting is pervaded with an air of peace and tranquillity and offers sublime panoramas. The perfect base to explore the Winelands, Cape Town and beyond. Affordable luxury in a tranquil, inspiring environment. The completely renovated Tuscan style villa lies on a 2 hectare country estate, entirely surrounded by vineyards. A portion of our grounds, which consist of excellent soils, is planted with organically cultivated Shiraz grapes. The views all around are breathtaking; rolling vineyards and mountain chains as far as the eye can see. To put it briefly, these are restful and inspiring surroundings, which form the best possible base to explore Stellenbosch, the Winelands and the Cape. AccommodationAllegria Guesthouse offers six comfortable guestrooms in three price ranges. The rooms have been given the name of a typically (South-) African animal. The stylish and contemporary design is tuned in with the respective animal and is therefore different for each room. Our Comfort rooms Cheetah and Giraffe have all modern conveniences, including: XL beds (queen size or twin beds), heating, ceiling fan, satellite TV, fridge, kettle with tea and coffee, safe, hair dryer, bathroom with 'rain'shower, toilet and twin wash basins and a private patio. The more spacious DeLuxe rooms Rhino and Zebra also have a bath and a separate shower in a semi-open plan bathroom (separated toilet) and lockable interconnecting doors. On top of this, the extra large Superior rooms Lion and Elephant also have air conditioning with heater, CD/DVD player, a designer bath and twin ‘rain’ showers. Sorry, no smoking inside, no pets. DiningBody and soul are well cared for. In addition to the very comfortable rooms with their XL beds, our guests are spoiled with a delicious breakfast, which is - weather permitting - served on the inner courtyard. The breakfast we serve, is comprehensive, with fresh fruit, home-baked bread, fruit juices and yoghurt, serials and muesli, free-range eggs prepared to your order and a delectable muffin. In season we also serve light evening meals (cheese platter, salads). Our honesty bar contains a hand-picked selection of fine wines, all produced by neighbouring estates. Later on the day, you can sip a glass of wine beside the large (20 m.) swimming pool. The regal lounge has a fire place, library, satellite TV and internet computer/WiFi. Business Centre / ConferencesBusiness Centre: In the reception you can use telephone, fax, printing and copying facilities.
