Springfontein Eats & Sleeps

In Springfontein Eats & Sleep, five pretty, white B&B cottages covered with reed are spread over a bright green meadow and in front of a mighty mountain backdrop, pool and tennis court. There is also an excellent restaurant, which you can also visit if you don’t live here. Run by Jürgen Schneider and his wife Susanne, who ran a star restaurant near Heidelberg before settling in South Africa in 2013. The menu includes delicacies such as Jerusalem artichokes with mushrooms and quail egg or trout dumplings with beetroot and wines from the Springfontein winery. The cottages, which can be reached via small paths covered with roses and hibiscus, are airy with lots of white, wicker furniture and a terrace with an open barbecue and deck chairs.
