10 Stellenbosch self-catering spots under R350

Posted on 28 July 2011

Who needs bed and breakfast when you’re going to spend your time in Stellenbosch‘s great restaurants, wine farms and markets? Self-catering is more affordable and convenient for most weekend travellers. Here’s our pick of 10 self-catering apartments in Stellenbosch. They’re all R350 or less a person a night sharing – and they’re available for the Stellenbosch Wine Festival this weekend (29 -31 July). Book your stay at http://getaway.safarinow.com

Squirrel and Vine (R200 a person)

The Squirrel and Vine apartment in the middle of Stellenbosch sleeps three people in comfort.

The apartment has all you need for a weekend stay, including a washing  machine and an all-important coffee maker. Click here to book.

Eendracht  Self Catering (R220 a person)

Alvera Geusthouse (R230 a person)

The comfortable home-style units of Alvera are in a quiet area of Stellenbosch, but still within walking distance of town. The fully equipped kitchen makes catering easy, but a B&B option is also available.  Click here to book.
