South Hill Guesthouse is a 4 star graded guest house with self catering option, offering Elgin accommodation for tourists and visitors of Cape Overberg.
Nestled amongst its own vineyards in the heart of the Elgin Valley, South Hill Guesthouse provides the perfect excuse to escape the city. In addition to its superb wines, South Hill offers a great country gourmet restaurant and intimate guest house.
Under an hour’s drive from Cape Town, you will find this a perfect setting for a romantic weekend getaway or even better: a quiet weekday break! No matter what time of year, you will be drawn in by the changing colours of the Valleys landscape.
South Hills Guesthouse offers double en-suite rooms, a honeymoon suite and a family loft suite. Each en suite room is individually decorated with doors opening on to a private patio.
Please see the individual cottage and unit descriptions below with photographs, to assist you with your choice.
The main area of the villa is open plan with a kitchen, dining room table and lounge area tastefully presented overlooking a garden and surrounding vineyards. A large open fire brings warmth during those chilly winter months.
Facilities include a 15m pool, a boule court and alfresco dining options in the garden and patio, and a pizza oven.
Enjoy a meal at the on site restaurant, The Gallery Restaurant at South Hill where chef Damian Dearlove will delight you with his innovative bistro-style menu using locally sourced produce. The restaurant also caters for functions, celebrations, weddings or any other private or corporate event.
For the more adventurous, there are paths for walking, bird watching, mountain biking, quad biking or kayaking in the dam. Any enthusiastic photographer will delight in the flora and fauna and amazing sunsets.
