What makes Boschendal such a treasure trove is there is something to do for everyone. The wine is especially great, so wine tastings are a popular attraction. Their vision is to balance tradition and experience with contemporary innovation to produce classic wines with measured modern new world attitude that are uniquely Boschendal.

Here, at the three hundred- and thirty-nine-year-old Cape Winelands farm, you can go horse riding, hiking or mountain biking, go for a garden tour and if venturing the outdoor spaces is not your thing, you can visit the Art gallery, shop the Homeware store or Farm Shop and butchery.
For kids there is plenty to do too. Kids can play at the tree house, playing area or join in one of the exciting holiday programs for different age groups. Visit the farm animals, bring their own bikes or rent a bike and enjoy the Pump track next to the play area.
Of course, your visit won’t be complete without the soil-to-fork approach at one of two fantastic restaurants, the Werf or Deli restaurant. Otherwise visit the Farm Shop for baked goods, fresh produce and have an informal take-away lunch at one of the tables outside or have a relaxing picnic at the beautiful Werf picnic area on the lawns.
