Accommodation Description
The Boschendal Clarence Cottages offer refined self-catering accommodation in a peaceful pocket of the historic Boschendal Estate. Guests can choose between two elegant two-bedroom cottages (sleeping up to four guests each) or a spacious three-bedroom manor-style cottage accommodating up to six. Interiors feature contemporary Cape country design, with generous open-plan living areas, wood-burning fireplaces, and fully equipped kitchens. Each bedroom has either a king-size bed or twin beds, high-quality cotton linens, and en-suite bathrooms. Outdoors, private verandas and manicured gardens invite al fresco dining or relaxed evenings under the stars. All cottages include air-conditioning, an inverter for backup power, and a mini-bar stocked with Boschendal wine and refreshments. Daily breakfast and a chocolate-and-wine pairing per guest are included, along with full access to the estate’s trails and facilities.
Setting Description
The Clarence Cottages sit within walking distance of Boschendal’s main Werf area, offering the perfect blend of privacy and proximity to the estate’s restaurants, gardens, and wine experiences. Surrounded by vineyards and oak trees, the cottages overlook lush lawns with mountain backdrops that shift in color through the day. Guests are free to explore over 1,800 hectares of working farmland and protected mountain slopes, whether on foot, by bike, or during a leisurely picnic among the vines. With its blend of natural beauty and timeless Cape heritage, this corner of Boschendal feels secluded yet completely connected to the pulse of the estate. It’s a space that appeals equally to couples seeking calm, families wanting outdoor freedom, and small groups looking for an elegant base in the Winelands.
