Summerwood Guest House
28 Jonkershoek Road, 7600 Stellenbosch Show map
Overview |
More sumptuous than a guest house and more homely than a hotel, Summerwood is situated in beautiful Stellenbosch, nestled between mountains and rivers, the perfect base from which to explore.
Conveniently located within easy reach of the Winelands, Cape Town and its spectacular scenery, the guest house is set in a serene garden featuring a wide variety of indigenous plants. Originally built in 1904, it was designed by an Italian architect and has been lovingly restored to meet the demands of the modern traveller. The friendly staff can advise you and organise activities in the village and the vicinity, such as guided wine tours, transfers, golfing and much more.
Ann and Christian, together with the entire team, invite you to enjoy the comforts and tranquillity of Summerwood and the beauty of its surroundings.

Area information
Stellenbosch is a town for all seasons. With its glorious scenery, close proximity to Cape Town and array of award-winning wineries, Stellenbosch is one of South Africa’s and the new wine world’s most popular destinations. The magnificent mountains and hills surrounding the town offer unequalled opportunity for active leisure, such as horse riding, cycling and hand-gliding.
Over the years Stellenbosch has grown into a vast academic and cultural centre. Its internationally acclaimed university draws thousands of students annually, and the flourishing wine industry takes visitors along the wine route to celebrated cellars. This historic town is the second oldest in South Africa, developed from a colony of settlers to whom land had been granted on the bank of the Eerste River. The avenues of oaks are lined with Cape Dutch, Georgian and modern Victorian architecture, of which many are now national monuments and jealously guarded for future generations.
