Leeu Estates

A boutique hotel and world-class vineyard

In the heart of the Cape Winelands you'll find Leeu Estates – a luxuriously stylish boutique hotel set in the midst of landscaped grounds and an award-winning vineyard.

With a relaxing atmosphere and strikingly beautiful location, there's an emphasis on exceptional service and indulgence. If you crave some R&R during your South African getaway then head for Leeu Spa, a state-of-the-art wellness sanctuary offering an array of massages and holistic treatments. 

Dining is an experience here – opt for fine dining at the hotel or try one of the Leeu Collection's sister properties in the village of Franschhoek, a three minute drive or scenic 15 minute stroll away. Leeu House is a relaxed dining option throughout the day whilst you can sample snacks and craft beers at the Tuk Tuk microbrewery.

Heaven on Earth!

Campbell, California

Leeu Estates was simply incredible. Breath taking scenery, inspiring manicured landscape, and world class treatment. In addition to the best service we've experienced, this was truly a place to relax, clear your mind, and drink some of the finest wine in the country. We had an action packed honey moon and to be honest, I was least excited about visiting the wine country- especially because we live in Northern California with Napa in our backyard. Boy was I in for a surprise! We ate at two amazing restaurants, took a private wine tour and upon returning to the Leeu estates we met the Founder, Analjit (Bas) Singh and his family. After an incredible dinner at EPIC (same owner) we returned to our room where we found 2 bottles of their best wine along with a Leeu Collection Art and Landscape book with a hand written personal note from Bas and his wife. This is a small act of kindness that says a lot about the owners and their standard of excellence . We have great memories from this trip and wish we stayed longer- we will surely be back!

Amazing experience

Loved our time at Leeu Estates. The estate was beautiful, and everyone was incredibly friendly. The service was phenomenal. Perfect place for a romantic getaway. We would definitely come back to the estate again in the future.
