Venue hire

Choose a date for the exact rate

from R58 000

Venue hire gives you full exclusivity of the estate for the day of your celebration.

R1 000 of your venue hire is invested into community and charity projects. A deposit secures your date once availability is confirmed. All rates exclude VAT.

02Your gathering

How many will you hold close

Guests120
80400

Fifty-two of your guests can stay on the estate. A minimum of 80 guests applies; larger numbers beyond 400 are confirmed with us, and we will guide you to the right shape for your day.

03Your catering

Choose how to dine

The STAY a while package includes

  • Still or sparkling water per guest on arrival
  • Canapés in line with your package
  • Plated dining service
  • Plated Starter, Palate Cleanser, Main Course and Dessert
  • The Dawn Suite: day use and overnight stay for 4, breakfast included
  • The Dusk Suite: day use and overnight stay for 4, breakfast included
  • Still bottled water per 10 guests

STAY offers no set menu — a set menu speaks to a lack of creativity and customised care. Instead, executive chef Andrew Draper sits with every couple to custom-design a menu that tells your story, in a Food Styling Meeting that is a vital part of your preparation. The complexity, quantity of courses and inclusions grow with each package.

Vegetarian and specialist requirements are provided for; a surcharge may apply depending on the intricacies of your requirements. There is no restriction on wedding planners or other industry suppliers.
