Skyview Manor

Skyview Manor is an elegant guest farm nestled on the mountainside of the Banhoek Valley in Stellenbosch, South Africa. The property offers panoramic views of the majestic Helshoogte Mountains and is surrounded by indigenous Fynbos, Proteas, and verdant gardens amid local vineyards.

Located 9.5 kilometers from Stellenbosch and within 20 minutes of Franschhoek, the manor serves as an ideal base for exploring three prominent local wine routes connecting Stellenbosch, Franschhoek, and Paarl. The property maintains convenient access to Cape Town and its airport, while being proximate to world-renowned wine estates.

The accommodation comprises various room types and self-catering options. The main house features several well-appointed rooms including the King Protea Suite, Queen Protea, Pincushion Suite, Silvertree Room, Mountain View, and Yellowwood Room. Each room offers en-suite facilities, with some located on the top floor offering mountain views, while others occupy the middle floor with access to communal areas.

Additional accommodations include the Sugarbush Room, attached to the main guesthouse with a private patio, and several self-contained cottages: Waratah, Sylvia, Valleyview (accommodating up to 8 guests), and Owl Cottage. All units feature modern amenities and access to shared facilities including a swimming pool, communal lounges, and braai (barbecue) areas.

The property is particularly suitable for wedding groups, mountain biking enthusiasts, wine tourists, golfers, or those seeking a tranquil retreat.
