Spier is committed to both preserving the heritage of the land and properly developing it. The lush estate isn't just a place where one can enjoy leisurely lunches, tranquil ambience and picturesque views, but also a site for innovative developmental projects and burgeoning creativity.
About us With its historic Cape Dutch homestead linking it to a fascinating past, Spier stands on the banks of the Eerste River, near the historic town of Stellenbosch and is just 20 minutes drive from Cape Town International Airport.

It is also pioneering social and ecological programmes to help eliminate poverty, protect the environment and ensure a sustainable future for the local community. Spier aims to embody the vibrancy, energy and heritage of the African continent.

For a lively evening with outdoor entertainment, moyo at Spier is a 500-seater restaurant that brings the taste of Africa to your tree-top table or stylish tent. The Jonkershuis Restaurant, on the banks of the Eerste River, gives guests a taste of South African food. The Spier Deli, on a wooden deck overlooking the lake with views of the majestic Helderberg Mountains, also allows guests to picnic on the lush lawns.
The Spier art collection, shown in the public spaces as well is in guest's rooms, reflects trends and developments within contemporary South African art. It also visibly demonstrates how Spier has nurtured artists by supporting their careers and being a patron of the arts
