Leeu House was the second stop on our honeymoon and truly the highlight of our trip. From the moment we arrived, the staff were warm, friendly, and incredibly helpful, welcoming us with a cold glass of South African fizz. Our room was lovely, with a beautiful bathroom and an incredibly comfortable bed. We chose one of the more basic rooms since we had lots planned, but it still exceeded our expectations. One particularly thoughtful touch was finding a printed itinerary on our pillow, complete with the next day’s weather forecast, such a lovely detail. The pool area was stunning, comfy loungers, complimentary sun cream, and staff always available for drinks. The cocktails were delicious and very reasonably priced. Breakfast was great. The buffet was small but had everything we needed, and the menu items, especially the French toast, were delicious. We ordered room service after a long day on the wine tram, which was great and well priced. The location is excellent, right on the main street and close to restaurants, the wine tram, and the Saturday market. There is constant security around the property so we felt safe even at night. We were glad we chose Leeu House over the estates for sheer convenience. Another incredibly helpful feature is the hotel’s car service. Again, reasonably priced, we used it several times including our way back to the airport. All the drivers were professional and friendly. A real highlight was the picnic we booked at Leeu Estates. We considered other wine estates but chose Leeu, and we are so glad we did! The setting, the views, and the wonderful service from Bruce made it unforgettable. We would highly recommend this experience to anyone staying at Leeu. We did the complimentary wine tasting at Le Quartier Français, which was nice, although we wish we had had time to visit the estates for it instead. Overall, an excellent stay. Each and every member of staff helped make Leeu House feel so special. We could not recommend it more, especially for a honeymoon.
