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.

Blissful Break
Beautiful setting nestled in a valley. The atmosphere is incredibly peaceful, and the staff are wonderful and friendly. It is a lovely country escape surrounded by beautiful horses, yet conveniently close to good restaurants.

Truly a magical fairytale stay at Hemel and Aarde Stud
The photos hardly compare to this fairytale accommodation. The area and farm is picturesque and serene. It was truly one of the most beautiful places I have ever seen. We had a great time firing up the KolKol, watching the horses graze in the meadows and reading with next to the fireplace on the rainy days. The bath overlooking the meadow and mountains at the back was absolutely breathtaking... Read this review
