DESCRIPTION:

Nestled at the foot of the Rabie Mountain in the picturesque Nuy Valley lies Leipzig Country House, a place where you’ll rediscover inner peace, find food for the soul or unexpectedly meet new friends. Situated on Route 62 between Worcester and Robertson and just 90 minutes from Cape Town, this historic establishment now offers luxury accommodation and up market conference and wedding facilities.

With their unique approach to history, the Smit family carefully and patiently created an old village atmosphere by using the existing buildings from 1820 to establish a place where the central courtyard, water features, art and culture culminate in a truly magnificent dwelling.

Respect was key when restoration took place and all existing building elements from the past. Old friends and well-known artist couple, Alexander and Anastasia Lochnikov, gave nine generations of the Rabie family new life in depicting their rich history in fresco paintings throughout the buildings.

Buildings previously used as a brandy cellar, tractor store and equipment storage facility have been revamped into modern accommodation, wedding and conferencing facilities all overlooking the courtyard or with glimpses of a horizon where vines meet mountain in perfect harmony.

Accommodation


All of the 17 luxury rooms are tastefully furnished with a writing desk, cotton linen, air-conditioning and Wi-Fi connection.

Breakfast


Rates include an English breakfast - al fresco style - in our magnificent summer months.

Weddings


Our weddings are hosted in the old wine cellar with red stained walls and the remains of open cement fermentation tanks as a constant reminder of the past. The venue provides seating for 135 people with dancing.

The chapel with beautiful fresco paintings can accommodate 80 people. Our tranquil garden and lawn in front of the Manor House is the perfect setting for a romantic ceremony and for guest to enjoy pre dinner drinks before the reception.

Conferences


Leipzig Conference facilities can accommodate a capacity of 120 delegates. It is divided into a large conference room and a smaller private lounge and patio, perfect for smaller executive meetings.
