EXCELLENT Based on 369 reviews Explore571148802962023-10-29 The best and most memorable weekend getaway ever! Had the best stay. Nice and quiet and intimate. The most spectacular views and the Turkish bath is an absolute must! Loved the cottage and will definitely be going back a few times ! The cottage was prepared for us with the most (and cutest) attention to detail. Everything we needed was ready for us and we were very pleased and grateful. The winery itself is also a must visit! Thank you ! groe7299352023-10-12 Fantastic Wine Farm Stay We have another wonderful stay at Seven Oaks. The cottage is very well situated in the middle of the wine farm and has everything you need for an amazing stay. The turkish bath was a hit again for our kids and we will most certainly be back again. andredQ9594ZR2023-10-09 Seven Oaks Stay 29/30 Sep 2023 My overall impression of the location and facilities was that it was a top notch stay and that everything was thought of. I have one complaint however, I asked if the Turkish bath fire could be started on our behalf as we would be returning late, and my request was denied. Needless to say, we could not make use of the bath, very disappointing. Something Seven Oaks should seriously consider in future, i would have happily paid extra!! Petrus S2023-06-07 What a fantastic place to stay - from the rooms to the vineyard to the entire area around it! Patrick and Jacqui - great hosts! Winetrip was excellent - would like to redo it in the the summer also! Keep us updated and also offered us to stay longer on the Sunday because they had no bookings following us. bethebarnes2023-05-26 Vineyard charm and comfort I loved my quick (1 night) stay at 7 Oaks so much, I’ve already booked for a longer visit in a couple of months. Excellent location in the Breedekloof Wine Valley. The cottage itself (I was in Malbec) is well-appointed, charming and cozy. There are all sorts of lovely decor touches to make you feel at home. Host Jacqui was extremely responsive to all of my questions and made both check-in and checkout easy. Highly recommended. Marius K2023-02-28 Perfect couples getaway, amazing value! We couldn't have asked for a better stay at Seven Oaks Cottages. We have been to many similar places around the WC, and this is by far the best value for money. The cottages are very cozy, well equipped and tastefully furnished. The veranda has stunning views of the vineyards and surrounding mountains, and the nearby wine cellar is very convenient and offers great wine and experiences. This is certainly our new favourite break away spot, we can't wait to be back! Ingrid L2023-02-21 Perfect Serenity! A perfect Place to celebrate a sisters 50th! Couldn't have asked for better in terms of comfy gorgeous cottages with the most beautiful views of the mountains and wine farm aruond you. Attention to detail was so warm and welcoming and Ina went ou to her way to make us feel at home. The wine tasting was a fun experience and a must when you are there. Wouldn't hesitate to come back. Thank you Erin2023-02-20 Couples weekend. Lovely weekend away, the Turkish baths were amazing whether it's keeping yourself cool during the hot summer day or heating it in the cooler evenings, it was such a delight too have. The cottage was beautiful and clean. So well stocked with all the essentials you literally need to bring only your food and drinks. The cellar sells extra wood and firelighters if needed with wonderful and friendly service. All in all a amazing stay! Dunsea2023-02-19 MAGNIFICENT MOUNTAIN VIEWS Lovely clean, well appointed cottage. In a peaceful and quiet spot in amongst the vineyards. We chose it because we were attending a wedding nearby & it suited our needs perfectly. Jacqui was very helpful although, sadly, we didn't end up meeting her. We would definitely recommend this place to stay Lerissa2023-01-09 Magnificent stay We had the most magnificent stay at Seven Oaks. Absolutely everything was perfect. The cottage is well-equipped and clean. We had everything we needed for the stay. Due to it being New Year's Eve, we were treated to a Champagne Vineyard Safari with an endless supply of champagne. It was such an unexpected treat. We were also able to still enjoy the wine tasting for free as were cottage guests. We loved every moment of our stay. There are generators on the property so you are not affected by load shedding. The wifi connection is great. The surroundings is so peaceful and private.

Great place for a weekend getaway. Charming accomodation, great views, and good wine. The owners and staff were very friendly. The Turkish bath was also a lot of fun. Jade Stewart2024-01-22Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We popped into Seven Oaks for a wine tasting on a Sunday morning in January. The tasting area has a nice, relaxed setting, and the staff who greeted us and did our tasting were very friendly and professional. I think their brand ambassador must be the talkative little tuxedo cat who stayed and "chatted" with us the entire time we visited :) We did a full tasting of their wines with a cheese board for 2. All of Seven Oaks' wines were superb, from the very easy drinking Seven Oaks range of wines, to the more full-bodied 6+1 range. I was particularly taken with the 2021 Shiraz and 2020 Merlot (which is saying something, because I am not usually a Merlot fan) which both had smooth tannins, full bodied dark fruit flavours, and well balanced oak. We also got to taste the Brut MCC. Would have loved to try their Noble Late Harvest as well. For the price, the cheese platter was a little underwhelming, but the wines made up for that. The owner, Patrick, came around to greet us and the other visitors at the tasting area and had a brief chat. They also offer some other interesting and unique ways to taste wine. Highly recommend a visit for their wines :)
EXCELLENT Based on 82 reviews Corlia2024-10-07 Wonderful, peaceful, beautiful ☺ Everything was amazing, and the host, Willem, went above and beyond to accommodate us. ☹ We liked everything Kerry2024-08-21 Nice homely cottage with views of mountains ☺ The cottage was very homely and was well set up with everything that you might need. Nice views of the mountains and the surrounding farmland. Wished we had booked it for longer. Matthew2024-08-19 Cosy farm-style cottage stay surrounded by incredible mountains ☺ Beautiful location - the cottages are surrounded by incredible mountains and picturesque farmlands. The braai/fire place inside the cottage was a lifesaver with the cold weather and wind we had for the days we visited. We booked the place to use the Turkish bath but the weather unfortunately didn't play along - although the bath facilities were great. Jacqui (the host) was very friendly and informative and the cottage included some treats for guests. ☹ Not a big problem but the bathroom is a shared space off the the 2 bedrooms, so just something to be aware of depending on who you are travelling with. The doors to each room off the bathroom can both be looked from inside the bathroom, so there is a system in place that works. Guests would likely appreciate a few bags of wood being provided with the cottage. Jeremy2024-08-18 There were no problems with anything, which is exactly what I like. Everything was supplied. ☺ Everything was perfect- lockbox opened fine, all the lights worked, enough toilet paper, hot water bottles, small milk in the fridge, a bottle of wine, some crunchies to nibble, plently of wood and braai facilities, towels ... everything! Very reasonable price too. Even the wifi automatically connected (was surprised). And the outdoor tub was already warmed for us! So no stress. We also prefer no tv. I think the beauty is that we did not have any problem which we would then have had to solve, which has happened to me at other places (eg lights not working or dirty or whatever.) Ours hosts also recommended an excellent place to have supper the second night - the Tulbach Hotel. We really enjoyed that. So overall we had a great time and just relaxed, with no pressure or problems. Bless Jacqui and Willem. ☹ My partner wanted tissues. No biggie. Gert2024-08-12 Wonderful Alexandra2024-08-12 We had a wonderful stay! Would definitely go back ☺ N/A it is self catering ☹ We enjoyed everything Mike2024-07-29 One of the best ☺ It's a brilliant location and the cottage has everything. I mean - who actually has the hot tub ready for you? These guys do. The rooms are lovely and just so quaint and you are just 400m from wine tastings and great wines. You couldn't ask for more - oh and the wifi is great. Maud2024-07-19 Very nice. ☺ Rained a lot and only stayed one night but had nice braai in kitchen with the local wine. Bed very comfortable. Shower head bit narrow for nice shower. Lighting from ceiling can be more atmospheric - too 'white'. Overall very lekker place. ☹ All said above. Lighting from ceiling and shower head could be better. Micaela2024-07-18 Exceptional Nadine2024-07-12 Really enjoyed our stay here and will definitely be back ☺ Beautiful setting. Loved the hot tub.

We cannot thank you enough for the hospitality and kindness that was demonstrated at our visit. We did not stay there but sure were rolled out the red carpet for the braii. We absolutely had an amazing time and would highly recommend this winery to any and everyone. We sure do hope that you make it to Ontario at some point. Cheers to you and your family and a huge thanks again, unbelievable.

On Sunday, unplanned, we joined Seven Oaks winery for a wine tasting and met such awesome friendly staff and Patrick ( the main oak) who entertained us with interesting tales and very good wines!
Must compliment the wines, all very drinkable. Can’t wait for the launch of the Bordeaux blend early next year.

I Did the theater of Aromas. A very humbling experience and made me realize how much my nose can be tricked! Was a great experience and I absolutely loved their 6+1 range. I like a heavily wooded wine and their merlot really surprised me with its smoothness.
Laura Smith –
We loved our time at seven oaks!
They have a Theatre of Aromas that really put our nose buds to the test! It was awesome and super interactive!
The cheese platter was amazing and complemented the wines that I tasted as well! We visited the farm during winter and sat in front of the huge fire place that kept us warm, what a treat!
Tracy Laubscher –
My family and I recently visited Seven Oaks. The wine tasting was excellent and I was particularly wowed by their Chardonnay, a wine I do not usually favour. I am a convert. Their Theatre of Aromas was such an interesting experience and made us realise how little we can rely on our sense of smell. The environs are beautiful and we will definitely be back! Highly recommended

Our 3-day stay was spent in a nice, welcoming and cosy, homely environment filled with delicate minute attentions (thanks Jacqui). The cottages are clean and fully equipped – we had everything we needed and more. Highly recommended, we’d love to come back.
