We loved everything about Angala, it so serene and relaxing in a beautiful environment. Showing outside with mountains on the horizon was a highlight for me personally

Very comfortable bed! We loved that there were bikes to borrow to go on a lovely morning bike ride around the compound. View is unreal! it is the perfect location and near many wineries. Their own wine is great and we got a complimentary wine tasting included in our stay. Breakfast was good, A la Carte, not buffet. There is a lovely pool as well. Staff are friendly and helpful.

Easy to get around, stayed at Babylonstoren and ate and drank at the property. Food was great, fresh and healthy but the property is way too busy with "Day visitors" - talking bus loads.......
Other than that and if you don't mind people milling everywhere a beautiful location

All very special indeed.
I was there with 3 adult children.
We did everything on offer.
The bikes/the walks/the runs and the swimming and canoeing in the lake and the most super food at breakfast most particularly.
It would suit all kinds of families/age groups.
We only had 3 days there and so potentially one could run out of things to do but we didn't.

Excellent location for travelling to and from and well situated close to Paarl. Bablyonstoren and Vrede en Lust are close by for vinyards. Also Paarl is only 5 km away. It is well situated with fine views of the mountains and vinyards.
Amazing historic house right in the centre of the South African wine area. You really smell the old oak in the history of this very well mentained house. I had a great conversations with the host, she is a lovely woman. Telling me stories of the history and preparing a small early breakfast.
Would definitely love to stay here again and highly recommend it!
This place is just wonderful! Feels like a little paradise on earth: The estate and the hotel are very beautiful, everything is very clean and modern and the employees are very, very nice and give you good advice and recommendations for your stay in the area. Everything you need for your perfect holiday in South Africa!
Check in was smooth with a very friendly receptionist who took us to our rooms and explained the hotel facilities.
The rooms were very comfortable, clean and well appointed.
The estate tasting room has great views of the area and hotel; guests are treated to a complimentary tasting.
The Property must have a big sign on the road, like other lodges or hotels, which shows the direction from the main road. The property can attract more tourists or people if they can use the open space to generate their own power by erecting a solar power plant.
Great location. Friendly and cozy hotel, making you feel like being at home. Comfortable bed for a good night of sleep, apartment exceptional clean, kitchen with coffee and tea available and even some milk in the fridge for your tea. I really felt at home.
Second visit to this stunning hotel and it will not be our last. The hotel is wonderful and the views out of this world. The rooms are fantastic with every possible amenity available. The beds and pillows are so comfortable it was hard to leave.
The appointment of the rooms and attention to detail of Babylonstoren is amazing and it was a superb two night stay. The concept of farm to table is phenomenal. Spectacular gardens and mountain drive with amazing views.
Staff were wonderful
Restaurant food at Savoye was fantastic
Wine tasting was great and staff knowledgeable
Great views
Grounds were vast
Very central to wine farms including the wine tram
A lovely spot next to the water. Great location to go around the wine farms and explore.
The host is so helpful and always willing to share information of things to do in the area.
Rustic with farm stay style facilities, this is not a hotel, but it’s great if you are happy with the rustic farm stay style. Amazing views and decent food in the restaurant.
Kimi's cottage was spacious, clean, a great location and had everything we needed. Would highly recommend for any weddings at Vrede en Lust or other venues nearby.
