Surval Boutique Olive Estate

Reclining against the slopes at the foot of the Swartberg Mountain range, Surval Boutique Olive Estate watches over the Schoemanshoek Valley as it unfolds in a tapestry of green hues. The farm-style setting is an ideal overnight stop for travellers coming from the Cape Winelands on their way to the scenic Garden Route. 

Take a tour of the olive farm, sampling some of its produce along the way. The nature trails weaving through the property and its surrounding undulating landscape are an escape for hikers and mountain bikers. The swimming pool offers cool respite during the hot days, while the Willow Dam is ideal for a gentle paddle and a glass of bubbly. 

The 23 Suites and Bedrooms are individually styled, reflecting an African-farm feel through its fine fabrics, earthy tones and wooden shutters. Sample Su Casa’s Klein Karoo-inspired cuisine – a treat of classic flavours and dishes that have stood the test of time. Take your pick of fine vintage South African wines from the cellar to pair with your meals or to simply enjoy in the communal Orchard Room lounge.
