About Stanford Hills Estate
Stanford Hills Estate sits on the historic Weltevrede Farm just outside the village of Stanford, on the lower slopes of the Klein River Mountains in South Africa's Cape Overberg region, about 1.5 hours from Cape Town along the Cape Whale Coast. The boutique, family-run estate is led by owner and winemaker Peter Kastner, with Jami Kastner overseeing hospitality. All grapes are grown on the farm and hand-picked, producing a range that includes Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay, Pinotage (led by the flagship Jacksons Pinotage), Shiraz, a Rosé, the Veldfire Cape Blend, and a Méthode Cap Classique sparkling wine. Beyond the cellar, the estate combines vineyards with flower farming, a working dam, and visitor facilities including the Casa Cello restaurant (Portuguese- and Mozambican-inspired cuisine), wine tastings at The Tasting Room, and accommodation ranging from a historic Manor House and cottages to luxury glamping tents.
Who Is This For?
For travelers who want to combine a relaxed, farm-based wine tasting with a full day out — hand-picked cool-climate Pinotage and Sauvignon Blanc, a farm-to-table lunch, and the option to stay overnight on the estate.
