~ Stanford ~ Western Cape ~ South Africa ~

Weekend getaways in Stanford (20 minutes from Hermanus and 100 minutes from Cape Town) can be relaxing or filled with adventure. This historic village, which celebrates 150 years of existence in 2007, is filled with weekend getaway ideas.

Stanford is also an ideal spot for international visitors looking for something special to do away from the hub-bub of Cape Town. Stanford is a beautiful 90 minute drive from Cape Town International airport. You will experience something completely different here - real South African rural living - complete with all the culinary indulgences, warm hospitality, abundant nature and tranquility you can imagine.

At Bezuidenhout House you can relax in our charming village garden with the Kleinrivier mountains in the distance and read, contemplate, bird watch or take a dip in the sparkling salt water-pool. Curl up in a comfy chair by the fire in winter with a good book and a glass of delectable local wine.

Enjoy a stroll through the village; discovering the eclectic antique; bric-a-brac and decor shops; a sunset cruise on the river; a relaxing foot treatment, manicure or pedicure by Cathie; great food at the local restaurants, very good beds with crisp percale linen, fluffy towels and a peaceful nights sleep.
