Accommodation

Leipzig Country House & Winery has it all. With luxury accommodation and self-catering options, Wi-Fi, a good old-fashioned farm breakfast and a long list of activities to discover, one day’s visit is way too short.

Away from the hustle and bustle of the city life and into the gorgeous wine lands, you will find Leipzig Country & Winery in a small valley called Nuy. You will fall in love with the route towards the guest house, with vineyard and mountain sceneries along the way. A warm welcome will make you feel right at home. Birds chirping, nature singing, beauty surrounding you…the tranquil setting will allow you to relax and shut down from reality.

Take a walk in the beautiful vineyards or relax at the swimming pool with a good book or a glass of wine. Bring your mountain bike and explore the area or visit the secret tortoise garden- there is adventure for all. Go on a tasting journey, experience the superb wines and the delicious food of Leipzig Country House & Winery. You will be given an exclusive and personal wine tasting that will enlighten not only the wines but the history of the farm. Choose your favourites and enjoy it with traditional South African country cooking. You will dine in the 1893 wine cellar and purchase from a Muscadel tank, restored into a bar. All our meals are inspired by generations-old recipes and prepared with fresh produce from the surrounds and fertile valley. Be sure to leave feeling part of the family and traditions.

If you are looking for the perfect getaway, be sure to visit Leipzig. Come to Leipzig to savour every taste, reconnect with the sublime beauty and meet in an inspiring country paradise. Where all things tell a story, where timeless traditions meet modern living.

MIXING BUSINESS & PLEASURE

Conferences

We’ve observed that activities are forming a trend when it comes to conferences, as most companies try to create a memorable experience for the delegates. Employees are more involved, rather than the usual full-day conference where they are pumped full with information and head home worn-out and exhausted. Rather incorporate an activity to keep delegates enthusiastic, resulting in a focused group and productiveness.

Team-building activities are less popular at conferences, as companies focus on team-building as a separate unity. It requires a lot of energy and might leave delegates drained, resulting in distraction from the session. Minor activities allow delegates to relax while having fun, leaving delegated fresh and interested in the session. You won’t go wrong with activities such as wine tasting, craft beer tasting, wine blending, ice breakers, wine pairing or even take delegates to see the bottling process at a winery. Ice breakers take participants out of their comfort zone and making them feel part of the team.

The venue of the conference plays a big role when hosting a conference. Taking delegates away from the hustle and bustle of the city life and into peaceful surroundings is essential. Most of these venues provide interesting activities and luxury accommodation.

Contact us for more information on our conference packages and activities at info@leipzigcountryhouse.co.za. Luxury accommodation is available.

BUSINESS AND PLEASURE

Conferences

Who said business and pleasure can’t be combined.

Conferences, meetings, events and seminars in an inspiring setting – Leipzig is the perfect self-drive option within 2 hours of the Mother City. We are situated at the foot of the Rabie Mountains in the picturesque Nuy Valley, between Worcester and Robertson in the Western Cape.

We offer the choice of 3 upmarket conference and meeting venues with multimedia equipment and quality amenities. These venues can accommodate small teams of 10 people or larger groups of up to 150 people for conferences and events. Our dedication to personalise service makes all the difference. Depending on your needs, we are able to cater for a half-day conference up to a three-day conference and even longer. From picnic-style lunch, lunch overlooking the mountains to canape lunch or an alfresco lunch in red wine cellar.

Spend time where time stands still. Delegates have the option of 21 luxury guest suites, tastefully furnished and filled with simple luxuries. Our rooms are surrounded by vineyards, mountains and pristine gardens, which is a scenic relief from the city life. There are also lots of alternative accommodation for the overflow delegates.

Spoil guests with a three-course dinner or enjoy an informal braai in Leipzig’s relaxing atmosphere.

Besides the guest house and function venue, we also have a modern, fully equipped, boutique-style winery. We also offer several activities after a long day in the meeting room.

Combine business and pleasure by spoiling your delegates with delicacies. Whether you opt for a wine tasting experience, a Sundowner Tractor-Wagon drive through the Vineyards, or convey team building by creating a quick ‘Master Chef’ competition or Wine Blending activity. Your guests will have the ultimate experience. Your guests will be entertained which leads to productiveness.

We proud ourselves on our versatile service, we are flexible and build according to your needs. Whether it is altering your menu, adding outside activities or creating according to a theme. We dare to be different.

We’re looking forward to having you on the Estate, to make lasting memories and become part of the story of a 200-year-old working wine farm.

Well this place is such a gem and though but was just a night stay but really loved their food. There's Tom for improvement especially through landscapes and through outdoors to make it more child friendly. The fact that room is just a studio with a few beds was also a turn off for me especially at that price. I would prefer some privacy but hospitality was really amazingBreakfast didn't live up to - absilutely no effort put in whatsoever and must say it didn't love to expectation after the 3 course meal I had the previous nightWould I go back? Maybe just for a day visit and for their excellent but not a stay

I can truly say that one receives royal treatment here, and a customer experience second none. Exceptional food and the most beautiful scenery surrounding the grounds with a mountainous backdrop from which one struggles to look away. Small upgrades to the bar and lounge area will make the facilities perfect, but still a phenomenal place to stay with plenty to do!

An absolutely gorgeous view and stunning venue for a wedding. The staff were always smiling ear to ear! The food served at the wedding was incredible and I liked the fact that you could choose from a few options and everyone seemed to enjoy their food a lot. The cash bar was also affordable for a wine estate.We stayed in one of the guest houses for two evenings. The beds were really comfortable and we got a great night's sleep both nights. However, my fiancé specifically booked a room with a bath tub and we paid extra to get the room. When we got to our room, we were put in one of the other rooms without notifying us... Whether the mistake came from the Leipzig staff side or if one of the other couples quickly swapped out the names in the rooms before we arrived, we don't know, but we decided not to make a scene about it to avoid stressing out the bride and groom. It's just a bit frustrating because we booked far in advance and paid extra for the room just to not get what we booked.I would still recommend them as a great wedding venue to anyone considering getting married here.
