DESCRIPTION:
 
The Winery House is a centrally located, self catering house situated in the heart of a working wine farm. It is located behind the Môreson cellar, and around the corner from the award winning Bread & Wine Restaurant and The Farm Grocer.

It has three spacious bedrooms, one of which is en-suite while the other two share a bathroom. It is also serviced everyday, and consists of a comfortable lounge, well equipped and super cool kitchen, charming outside verandah, its own private swimming pool and satellite television (DSTV).

If you've always wanted to own your own wine farm but never had the means to realize your dreams now is your chance. Book yourself and your friends and family into the Winery House and tick "wine farmer" off your to do list. While you're in the neighborhood check out if you can fit in a bread baking lesson and an introduction to wine blending during your stay. Or if the "hands on" making of wine is more your scene, then make arrangements with the farm to take part in the harvest or work in the winery.
