    About This Property

    More sumptuous than a guest house and more homely than a hotel, Summerwood is an adults only guest house situated in beautiful Stellenbosch, nestled between mountains and rivers, the perfect base from which to explore. Conveniently located within easy reach of the Winelands, Cape Town and its spectacular scenery, the guest house is set in a serene garden featuring a wide variety of indigenous plants. Originally built in 1904, it was designed by famous architect Mello Damstra and has been lovingly restored to meet the demands of the modern traveler. The friendly staff invite you to enjoy the comforts and tranquility of Summerwood and the beauty of its surroundings.

    Top Breakfast. Great host. Pool & Rabbits :) (you have to check in to find out :) ). Walking distance from the Town centre, in the middle of the wine routes.

    Perfect spot for relaxing or wine exploration!
    Fiona was very supportive from the moment I entered the gates till it was time to say goodbye. Location is perfect to rewind and on walking distance to the center of Stellenbosch and the best steak restaurant in the neighbourhood. The location is perfect to explore the wine estates with, again, perfect tips from Fiona. The swimming pool is a nice place to recharge batteries and breakfast was just lovely.

    Summerwood is the perfect choice in Stellenbosch!
    Summerwood is lovely! Wed stay again in a heartbeat! The lovely Irish manager Fiona upgraded us to a ground floor room with a shady patio - perfect! The pool looked very tempting, but in September its not yet warm enough! The house is beautiful, the garden too, and the breakfast really exceeded expectations!
    Its a bit of a walk to town, but a pleasant walk and Uber is so cheap in South Africa you just call a cab if youre too tired to walk back!

    Attention to detail, art, cleanliness was second to none. The host is really lovely and friendly. Great breakfast, lovely grounds. All the amenities you need with free coffee and tea facilities (Nespresso machine) at any time in the room and in the lounge. Would stay again without a doubt. Don't settle for second best!

    Our first time back in nine years. We wont leave it so long next time.
    The Summerwood location is ideal to walk into Stellenbosch. The garden & pool were a welcome break after the heat of the day. The room & all communal areas, like the lounge, were really good. The staff were very friendly & helpful, Fiona the owner in particular. Nothing was ever too much trouble. The star of the show has to be breakfast. The granola is fantastic & the various options of eggs, bacon, sourdough, avocado etc. were fully researched on our visit. 10/10 every time!!
    Absolutely nothing.
