Ah, it's that time when personal trainers are on speed dial, calendars are filled with post-it notes and inspirational quotes to help us get more organised. But let's face it. New Year's Resolutions show great intention; after all, it's the thought that counts, right? Yet in reality, we hardly ever keep them, and come February, we're back into the Valentine's chocolates and treats.
De Zeven offers luxury guest house accommodation in the Cape Winelands between the famous towns of Stellenbosch and Franschhoek. Nestled on the slopes of the mysterious Banhoek Valley, it is a place of thrilling adventure and expansive tranquillity. You can look forward to the finest bed & breakfast experience and personal service, while admiring the incomparable sight of mountains soaring above you, and the valley opening at your feet.

Private Wine Label
De Zeven is home to its own private wine label, Limoenkloof, featuring 3 exceptional wines (Sauvignon Blanc, Shiraz, Cabernet Sauvignon) and a Brut Sauvignon Blanc MCC – available here and nowhere else.

Panoramic Pool
Sun-drenched water, martini seats, and an unobstructed view over the valley turn a dip in the pool into something special.

With more than 70km of trails in the Banhoek Conservancy – most of it single-track – you can bank on days and days of superb MTB play. Directly accessible from our doorstep.
Soothing Sauna
Sooth your body and relax your muscles in our sauna – the perfect end (or beginning) to a day of relaxation or mountain biking and trail running adventures.

Viewing Deck
We built the indoor/outdoor lounge and viewing deck because the view from it is nothing short of mesmerising, whether you’re enjoying breakfast or relaxing on a sunbed.
From Our Blog
The advent calendars, Michael Bublé, and festive fanfare have all reminded us that Christmas was coming for the last three months, but in the Banhoek Valley we're releasing our advent calendar today. Instead of opening thin chocolates leading up to Christmas Day, we're offering far more tempting and indulgent treats in and around De Zeven. So even if you aren't currently with us, these are the things you can look forward to...
Situated just two-minutes up the road from De Zeven, Delaire Graff dedicates itself to beauty in all its forms. During a visit to the estate you'll hear things like, "much like polishing a diamond to reveal its brilliance, jeweller Laurence Graff has transformed an extraordinary natural setting into a world-class destination for wine, art, cuisine and escape from the every day."
