Rooms Named After Horses

Dining and Wine Experiences

Breakfast includes continental and full English options, served daily. Dinner is a set 3-course menu featuring local wines, and traditional breads are baked each morning in a wood-fired oven. Guests can also take part in wine tasting and wine blending at the guesthouse.

In the Robertson Wine Valley

Excelsior Manor is located in the heart of the Robertson Wine Valley, surrounded by vineyards and the Langeberg Mountains. It is near the Cape Floral Region Protected Areas and Vrolijkheid Nature Reserve. Free private parking is available on site.

Services and Hospitality

Staff led by Kirstin, James, and Michelle provide daily housekeeping, laundry, and ironing services. The guesthouse offers meeting and banquet facilities, packed lunches, safety deposit boxes, and facilities for disabled guests. Butler service is available during dinner.

“The manor's appeal lies in its exceptional hospitality, evident in every genuinely warm welcome and attentive service. Guests consistently highlight the beautifully presented, plentiful breakfasts enjoyed with vineyard views, alongside the thoughtfully appointed rooms and immaculate bathrooms. It strikes a comfortable, almost home-like chord, making a return visit feel less like a decision and more like an inevitability.”
