The Hemel-en-Aarde Valley is just a few kilometres inland from the picturesque town of Hermanus, enjoying generally moderate temperatures and sea breezes in a climate that suits the growth of thoroughbred horses. The fertile Valley also grows other nationally and internationally famous farming products: grapes for award winning wines in neighbouring estates and the highest quality fruit and vegetables, supplying major retailers at home and abroad.

A beautiful space to retreat to!
Stunning cottages in a breathtaking location. We really enjoyed our 2 days here, the cottage is luxurious and the hot tub is a definite plus! The views are absolutely beautiful. Perfectly located on the Hemel en Aarde Road to go wine tasting just around the corner, if you can bear to leave the farm! A big thank you to Sue, who was so friendly and helpful. We loved it!
