My husband and I planned a 2 week trip around South Africa. When we book Hawksmoor House, it definitely stood out to us as a country/farm house with lots of charm and very different to the other hotels that we were staying in. We were not disappointed! Lovely staff and guests made it really feel like coming home after a... More

My wife and I spent 2 days at the Hawksmoor House while in South Africa. I was looking for a relaxing experience at a unique hotel –I was not disappointed. The grounds surrounding the hotel are a working farm with a great family of dogs and horses. I was well taken care of and felt that I couldn’t take enough... More

This was our favourite guesthouse on our trip in South Africa. It really is the most beautiful place. I would return in a heartbeat. Very good value in our opinion. If you find yourself in the area, this is the place to go for....you won't be disappointed! More

We stayed at Hawksmoor House for three nights and had a great time. The house is beautiful and our room (the White room) was very stylish. The main bedroom was large with doors onto a private terrace. We also had a separate dressing area, small spare bedroom and a large bathroom with a free standing bath and separate shower. When...

If you are looking for a place to relax Hawksmoor is the place to go to. Beautiful property, decor with taste and lovely garden. I recommend to have breakfast on die stoep (veranda) with its view over the long rectangular pond and Table mountain in the distance. The staff is informal but at the same time professional. I loved the... More

Yes, I know everyone raves about HM. And I had very high expectations. We stayed there in May of 2011. It is a lovely property. But it is not centrally located. It is a long drive into Stellenbosch. The decor is pretty but our room was very cold and the bathroom shower was not well laid out at all (room... More

Based on tripadvisor ratings we booked this place and enjoyed every minute, the house and surroundings are very beautiful. Nice salt water swimming pool, very kind staff who were very kind to our little daughter, and she loved the dogs. We had wine tasting with the owner who was very nice and together with him and the other guests we... More

We stayed at Hawksmoor for five nights whilst we explored the winelands and we had a fantastic time. The house is beautiful and the location perfect for a peaceful and relaxing holiday. However what really makes the difference are the excellent staff at the farm led by the wonderfully charming and friendly Kirsten. When we return to the winelands in... More

We felt very at home here from the moment we stepped through the door by the team and the surroundings. The house itself was wonderful with great architecture and gardens. As a honeymoon couple we were treated to a welcome bottle of champagne and the best room in the house. The food was delicious and we even stayed in and... More

When you enter through the gates to Hawksmoor House, you really leave the city behind you, even though you have an awesome view on Table Mountain, you are really removed from 'it all'. The house and garden is a feast, the garden is a real farm-house garden, without somebody picking up every falling leave or cutting all the hedges in... More
