"Proteas are to fynbos what salt and pepper are to the spice rack: the golden children" – Kate Black
Erika O How You Inspire
You don't have to know much about wine or be remotely interested in the industry to appreciate the story of powerhouse winemaker, Erika Obermeyer. We managed to sit down with her and find out more about the woman who calls De Zeven her tasting room home.
A Taste of Local at De Zeven
During a stay at De Zeven, you will experience luxury hospitality, but with a feeling of a home away from home. You will also see see plenty of local brands represented, giving you a taste of the Banhoek Valley while you are enjoying a slice of heaven, surrounded by beautiful mountain vistas and true local experiences.
A Carrot Cake Recipe That Wedding Dreams Are Made Of
While the world was experimenting with banana loaf recipes, we were perfecting the art of a moist, nutty carrot cake with spicy notes permeating through our lodge, and a not-too-sweet cream cheese icing topping it off.
See De Zeven With New Eyes
The last few months have made us appreciate more than we could ever have imagined, for no longer will we spend this year's winter months surrounded by guests as they make unforgettable memories. No longer will we casually go for a hike and look down at De Zeven from new heights, and no longer will we hear the sounds of wine glasses and "cheers" and the aroma of freshly brewed coffee permeating through our lodge. Times have changed, and while this time indoors is temporary, it has shaped a new way of thinking amongst us all as we learn to appreciate the simple moments in life.
