With its relaunch in 2021, the farm now offers luxury accommodation and catering, premium vineyards, expansive hiking and biking trails, leisurely game drives, picnicking and canoeing off the river front, and a retail arm featuring fine wines. All of these offerings are curated under a banner of environmental sustainability, with the inclusion of the local community. Today, Zoetendal estate embodies the warmth and welcome of the original Khoikhoi, and the courage and resilience of those pioneering vintners who were willing to risk all to grow vines at their limit, in a region rattled by south-easterly winds and rooted in hardy koffieklip soil. And the current owners wouldn’t have it any other way. One hails from Dutch heritage while the other is a member of the Venda Royal family. Both bring a cultural nuance to the newly styled Zoetendal estate.

    Such a lovely restaurant but way overpriced. The wines are good but almost none are not grown or produced on site, with more hefty price tags. Felt a bit like a marketing ploy.

    Warning to all who come here... this establishment does not accept cash and they don'ttell you untilthe end. So as nice as it was, I unfortunately won't return.
