Description
"De Leeuwenhof Estate", established in 1698 is now about 12 ha in total. Situated in the Klein Drakenstein area it was previous called Palmiet Vlei and issued in 1694 to a french/dutch Hugenot called Jean Du Bois for his work for the VOC, the first dutch multinational company in the world.
The main building as well as the farm part itself, have recently been fully restored and an old barn has been upgraded to a 4-star guestfacility by the Dutch "Van Leeuwen Boomkamp" Family, who only came to South Africa only in 2004.
Company description
Drawn by adventure and driven by a quest to seek new boundaries, the van Leeuwen Boomkamp's can tell out of own experience how one can fall in love with this ancient part of South Africa and how one feels linked to the Dutch ancestors who planted the roots for todays society.
On the farm there are 3500 fruit trees which are hand-picked from March until September on a daily basis, and in January and February the delicate wines are harvested.
Chardonnay, Shiraz and Cape-Riesling vineyards can be found on the farm and when asked for, every visitor gets to attend a private tour by the farmer and if one whishes one gets to ride a tractor or quad. Recently, the owners have started with planting Giant Bamboo on the farm for commercial purposes and between 6-12 laborers work daily on the farm.
Most people really like the peace and quietness on the farm and as we see many bird and animal life around the premises, animal and bird lovers will not be disappointed.
As the estate holds only an exclusive number of 5 rooms and two apartments, one finds himself is a tranquile and exclusive setting and even the most spoilt traveller will find all his needs at " de Leeuwenhof".
