Really good Dining Experience

“I thoroughly enjoyed my dining experiences at The Cellars-Hohenort. Breakfast in The Conservatory was simply amazing; the fresh press juices were refreshing, and the atmosphere with floor-to-ceiling windows provided a fine view of the greenery outside. Both lunch and dinner were tasty, but the standout for me was the dessert, particularly the vegan sticky toffee pudding which was delightfully not too sweet.” view full review

Beautifully Designed Room

“My room was not just beautiful but also incredibly spacious, with an airy design that led to an outdoor patio area. The comfortable bed and the luxurious amenities, including a towel warmer and an extra-long bathtub, made my stay all the more relaxing after a long day of exploring.” view full review

Tranquil Oasis

“The gardens at The Cellars-Hohenort were nothing short of a botanical masterpiece. I spent hours walking through the beautifully maintained grounds, and even got to enjoy the sight of the second largest and oldest Cinnamon Camphor tree in South Africa. The serenity truly made it a tranquil oasis, perfect for unwinding.” view full review
