Leeu Estates

Behind the 19th-century Cape Dutch-style exterior, the Leeu Estates manor house at the heart of the sprawling grounds is awash with modern art and tastefully luxurious. But though the interiors are undeniably elegant, it’s the outdoors that takes the starring role, from the manicured gardens and fruitful vineyards to the verdant Franschhoek valley views and the mountain backdrop beyond. Look closer and you’ll spot a secluded spa nestled amid the vines, and an infinity pool reflecting the South African sunshine. And it’s not all for show: you’ll find plenty of first-class wine to refill your glass during your stay. Cheers.

  

An hour east of Cape Town, Franschhoek is on the southwestern tip of South Africa.
