Stellenbosch Winelands, South Africa
Bellelvei protea farm on the banks of the Blauwklippen

Private Estate in the heart of Stellenbosch

Six beautiful homes. Mountain views. Open skies.

Six Stays. One Extraordinary Setting.

Each stay at Bellelvlei Estate has its own character — from orchard-immersed cottages tucked among the lemon trees to mountain-facing villas with room to gather. Whichever you choose, you'll wake up to the same thing: birdsong, mountain light, and the sound of the Blauwklippen River.

Bellelvlei House

Bellelvlei House

Our original farmhouse, at the heart of the property. Generous living spaces and wraparound mountain views, made for family gatherings and long lazy evenings. Expect room to spread out, a welcoming farmhouse atmosphere, and easy access to the orchard, protea fields, and the rest of the Bellelvlei estate.
