Wine Bar Safari

Stellenbosch is made for exploring on foot, and its historic town centre is home to a wonderful collection of wine bars, tasting rooms and relaxed places to enjoy a glass of local wine. Each has its own character, from intimate wine bars and specialist wine emporiums to creative spaces where wine, food and art come together.

Bonne Esperance Boutique Guest House is ideally located in the heart of Stellenbosch, with many of these wine spots within an easy walk of the guest house. Leave the car behind, take a stroll through the historic streets and discover a taste of Stellenbosch, one glass at a time.
