Welcome to this hidden gem adjacent to Keermont Vineyards in the Upper
Blaauwklippen Valley. Raithbury Hill House offers guests beautiful
views of the vineyards, gardens, and mountains, which creates a
peaceful atmosphere perfect for a holiday getaway. This home is
approximately 20 minutes’ drive from Stellenbosch and borders Keermont
Vineyards, a family-owned wine estate that consists of more than 100
hectares of indigenous fynbos and 30 hectares of vineyards. The main
house and adjacent cottage are rented together as one property, making
it suitable for families or groups wanting extra space, privacy, and a
quiet countryside escape.
The house and cottage can together accommodate up to eight guests
across four en-suite bedrooms. The main house features one bedroom with
a king-size bed and another with a queen-size bed. It also has two
bathrooms for guests’ convenience. The first bathroom has a shower,
bath, toilet, and double basin, while the second bathroom features a
shower, bath, washbasin, and toilet.
The separate cottage includes one queen-size bedroom and a second
bedroom with two three-quarter beds. This setup gives guests lots of
space while keeping everyone together. It also features two bathrooms.
Both bathrooms are fitted with a shower, toilet, and washbasin.
Everything you need for your holiday is provided, including linen and
towels.
In the main house, you will find an inviting living area that features
an indoor fireplace, cosy seating, and large windows that let in lots
of natural light, creating a bright and airy feel. The dining area
gives guests a welcoming space to enjoy meals together, while the fully
equipped kitchen comes with two electric ovens and hobs. The AGA oven
is ornamental. The cottage also features its own kitchen with an
electric oven and gas hob, giving larger groups more flexibility during
their stay.
The property opens onto a private garden overlooking the surrounding
mountains and vineyards. The outdoor swimming pool is ideal for warm
days, while the private patio and gas BBQ grill are great for outdoor
meals. Guests can also explore the vineyards on foot and enjoy the
peaceful scenery of the estate.
Raithbury Hill House also consists of a private dedicated workspace,
washing machine, and private entrance. An inverter offers backup power
for the Wi-Fi, TV, fridge, and selected lights, so guests can stay
connected when needed. This property is a perfect choice for families
or groups of friends that want to immerse themselves in the surrounding
nature while still being close to town. If you are looking for a
comfortable home base while exploring the Stellenbosch area, head to
