The grounds with some sculptures dotted around were worthy of a walk and there was a small, and cool 😉, pool with a few sunbeds. Our room, a Deluxe in The Manor House, was spacious with a large bathroom. The bed was very comfortable and with good linens and towels. There was a lovely welcome card and bottle of wine in the room upon our arrival. We stayed here for three nights, went out during the day, and spent the evenings/dinner in the hotel Dining Room. Breakfast was a mix of Continental buffet and hot options; we only ate from the buffet as we were heading out for lunch in various vineyards each day. We had pre-dinner drinks in the bar, which was a slight challenge due to lack of service and staff knowledge. There was also no atmosphere here or in the attached lounge. Our first night was cool so there was a fire lit which helped. We had two courses for two dinners; unfortunately the menu didn’t change limiting my (non-meat eating) options. On our last night we ordered just the cheese and charcuterie plates which were more than adequate after a large lunch out. The staff were friendly, but service was a little random from the bar to the Dining Room and pool area We had a 90mins massage each in the Spa and these were excellent. . We had a US$100 voucher included with our booking, but unlike other hotels which offer this, this was only for a meal in their restaurant (excluding drinks). Oh well.

Our experience at Leeu Estates was absolutely delightful! The tranquil atmosphere and serene surroundings created the perfect environment for relaxation. The property boasts amazing gardens, vineyrads and a serene pool. Additionally, the staff were among the nicest we have encountered, always attentive and eager to ensure that every aspect of my stay was enjoyable. The culinary experience at Leeu Estates was outstanding, with amazing fresh food. We appreciated the convenience of the free shuttles to Franschhoek city, which made exploring the area effortless. Overall, Leeu Estates exceeded our expectations in every way, and I highly recommend it to anyone seeking a tranquil, luxurious, and gastronomic getaway in Franschhoek.

This Hotel is phenominal in so many ways. The main house (where we stayed) was small enough to be intimate but had great presence as well. The cottages (I only saw from outside) looked inticing. The grounds are simply spectacular. From vineyards, to herb/vegetable plots to walled gardens were breathtaking. The grounds are littered with sculptures that are great pieces of art. Customer service and food all first class. A bedroom of a good size and great comfort. We had great treatments at the spa. The pool area where was small and whilst I worried about there being sufficient loungers this was never a problem. The hotel was about 7 minutes by car which the hotel provided with their compliments. When you leave Leuu Estate you tell yourself you must come back - quality, class, tranquility and luxury personified. My wife and I absolutely loved it!!!

We visited the estate to experience both the stunning surroundings and to taste the incredible wines. The Chenin Blancs and Syrahs were deliciously good , as was the knowledgeable and friendly sommelier. Would definitely recommended a visit if around 3 hours as we also ate lunch in the garden restaurant- disappointedly La Petite Combe was booked up.

Wow! We had the absolute perfect honeymoon stop staying at Leeu Estates for 4 nights. The service went above and beyond to make our stay so special. Complimentary wine, olive oil, rose filled bath tubs, deserts... it was so incredible. Never have we received such wonderful treatment before. The grounds were beautiful, rooms were so cozy and spacious, spa treatments so relaxing, food delicious, and wine superb. We will definitely be back and recommend a stay here to anyone.
