he
southern tip of Africa, where two oceans and many cultures meet.
Spreading from the foot of Table Mountain, the region emanates an
aura of mystery, tranquillity, adventure and excitement. With breathtaking
scenery, and the diversity of its people, South
Africa caters for every tourist. Purple mountain peaks,
merging oceans, spectacular peninsulas and wildly dramatic capes,
are among the scenic riches that welcome the visitor to the Cape.
South Africa has something
for everyone, from beach-lovers to wildlife enthusiasts, from connoisseurs
of good wine and food to those wishing to explore the cultural kaleidoscope
which stems from the complex weave of its history.
The Steenberg
Country Hotel is situated on the Cape's oldest wine farm, a
mere twenty minutes drive from the bustling heart of Cape Town.
Take a leisurely stroll to the winery, where you can taste some
of Steenberg vineyards' choice wines.
The private 18-hole championship golf course meanders leisurely through the Steenberg Vineyards, Pine Forest and gentle waterways.
There are two outdoor swimming pools, a small exercise room offers equipment for most gym activities and a steamroom is available to sooth your body and soul after a hard workout. Therapists offer a wide range of treatments, such as reflexology, aromatherapy, reiki, beauty treatments and polarity.
Steenberg
is also an ideal starting point for a visit to some of the Cape's
other attractions. The warm waters and white sands beaches of False
Bay and the spectacular views of Chapman's Peak are a few minutes
away, a drive to Cape Point Nature Reserve takes only 45 minutes,
the centre of cosmopolitan Cape
Town, South Africa's
mother city, is less than half an hour.
Light clothing and swimming attire is recommended for the summer.
Other essentials to bring are walking shoes, sun hats, sunglasses,
sun protection cream, cameras, and binoculars.
Wine has always been a part of life at Steenberg since the first vintage was produced here in 1695. Now, from the vineyards flanking the golf course to the winery perched on the hill, the traditions live on.
