Your Hideaway on the Banks of the Blauwklippen

Six charming stays. Sweeping mountain views. A working protea farm along the banks of the Blauwklippen River.

Our Houses

Six Stays. One Extraordinary Setting.

Each house at Bellelvei has its own character — from orchard-immersed cottages tucked among the lemon trees to mountain-facing houses with room to gather. Whichever you choose, you'll wake up to the same thing: birdsong, mountain light, and the sound of the Blauwklippen River.

Experience Bellelvei

Farm. River. Fynbos. Mountain.

Bellelvei is a private estate in the Stellenbosch winelands, where the Blauwklippen River winds past the lemon orchard, framed by fields of protea and mountains on every side. Spend your days wandering the farm, cooling off by the river, or venturing out to Stellenbosch's award-winning wine estates and restaurants, just minutes away. Come evening, settle onto your stoep and watch the mountains change colour as the sun goes down.
