The warmest hospitality awaits you at this working wine and rose farm, situated 10 km from the historic town of Stellenbosch. From your private B&B or Self Catering accommodation, awake to the sound of birds singing in the spacious, established garden. Surrounded by rose plantations, vineyards, orchards and breathtaking views (including Stellenbosch mountains) this is a paradise for nature lovers, a haven where guests can unwind and rediscover inner peace.
Aan-den-Weg B&B, the ideal base from which families and wine enthusiasts alike can explore the Peninsula and Cape Winelands, is situated in the quiet valley of Stellenbosch Kloof - the heart of the Stellenbosch Wine Route, only 20 minutes from Cape Town International Airport. This is a perfect place to begin or bring to close, your vacation of tranquility.
The guesthouse is personally owner-managed by Petra Joubert, who with her passion for people, thorough attention to detail and personalised service, goes out of her way to make guests feel most welcome and comfortable. Having lived on the farm and in Stellenbosch for many years, Petra offers the additional service of having an intimite knowledge of the surrounding area and activities available, ensuring an unforgetable stay.
Petra and husband Nicky, 4th generation of the Joubert family to farm this farm, live in the home built by his grandfather in 1930. Aan-den-Weg means `On the road` as their farm is situated on the historic wagon route that, in days gone by, farmers from the surrounding area, took to Cape Town. The Jouberts proudly share this creation and heritage with local and international guests - its far too special and beautiful to keep to themselves!
After spending a few peaceful nights at Aan-den-Weg, you too will feel as rejuvenated and relaxed as most of their guests have before. As a visitor described their stay at Aan-den-Weg `a stay of roses and wine - literally and metaphorically!`
