More about French Styled Welgelee and Stables

Welgelee is the last remaining land of a large dairy farm. The property is over 6 acres and also rents the neighbouring greenbelt for paddock grazing. The greenbelt provides beautiful walks along a river bordered by indigenous fynbos and is safe and fairy level for all ages. The property itself comprises a Main House, 2 holiday guest cottages - The Stable Cottage and our romantic French Cottage, and the larger converted Silos (Silos at Welgelee) which sleeps 8 people. Please see our aerial footage to get an idea of size and terrain.

Winter Weather Advisory: Cape Town winters (June-August) are notably cold, wet, and damp. This climate is normal for our region and does not indicate mold. Our homes, like many in Cape Town, are not heavily insulated for winter conditions. We provide blankets and heaters, but we strongly advise guests to:

Pack warm clothing, including layers and rain gear. Expect to use heating regularly during your stay - for you to top up.

Be prepared for indoor temperatures cooler than you may be accustomed to.

For guests seeking warmer weather, we recommend visiting from November to March. By booking during winter, you acknowledge and accept these conditions.
Guest interaction
The host lives on the other side of the estate and can be contacted for any issues.
Neighborhood overview
The home is set in the lush, fertile Constantia Valley surrounded by breathtaking mountains and famous vineyards. Cape Town's shops, beaches, and city centre are all easily accessible by car from this peaceful and safe retreat.
