Montpellier De Tulbagh

Hermon

We recently visited Montpellier for a wedding and while there we stayed in one of the Manor House rooms. Montpellier's natural beauty is mesmerizing with big gardens, lawns and even a mini forest spread around the property. The Manor House is an old Cape Dutch house with a similar, yet slightly more modern, design on the inside, and our room was comfortable and spacious enough for two people. It is good to note that the bathrooms within the manor house are not all en-suite, some of the rooms have to share bathrooms so it's a better option for friends or family travelling together. They also have a nice pool that blends into the surroundings for those hot summer days. Something that my wife and I really enjoyed was walking around in the gardens with the highlight being the forest area, as it really made us feel relaxed and forget about that daily hustle-and-bustle. At Montpellier they have a Deli / Curio shop, Restaurant and Wine Tastings (reviewed separately) so you are definitely going to be entertained while there. The wedding ceremony was held in a quaint chapel, with amazing views of the surrounding Tulbagh Mountain ranges and vineyards, and the reception was held outside on the lawns next to the forest which was mesmerizing. It is good to note that they have various venue options to choose from to suite different styles and weather conditions (if you are looking for a wedding destination). There are also several other accommodation options available on the property. During our stay there were however a couple of things that I think management can look at improving. As we stayed in the manor house, which is also open to the public, I recommend there be someone frequently available at the reception area. Also, I recommend that house staff ensure that toilet paper in the bathrooms are restocked every morning and evening without guests having to ask. Finally, just as an added bonus, I recommend they supply a bottle of water for each guest in the room, as not everyone is comfortable drinking the tap water. Above all these things, we still had a great time and think this is a good option from which you can explore Tulbagh, or where you can host a wedding.

Manor House Stay & Wedding

Montpellier Wine Estate in Tulbagh provides excellent Service and beautiful, rustic and clean guestrooms located on a working Wine Farm. The staff is very friendly and accommodating and it was a great pleasure staying there. Keep it up!

Excellent Service!

Stunning manor house with amazing staff and service. Emmanuel was the perfect host and took care of our every need. Beautiful gardens and we loved exploring all the little walkways. It was the perfect spot to celebrate our 25th anniversary 

Gorgeous accommodation

Had a wonderful experience here at the tasting centre next to the glass house.  When we arrived, we weren't sure where to go, but it just kept saying "Follow the music", so we walked through the forest as if we were in an Alice in Wonderland script, and we found a small restaurant and asked where to go and they said, just follow the music, so we did.  

And wow, we found this magical tasting centre with a great guy serving us in the middle of nowhere, so it seemed.  He was quite amazing telling us the stories of the bubbly and very generous with the tastings.

Such a beautiful venue .

Don't miss this one when visiting Tulbagh.

Quirky but fabulous bubbly tasting

We stayed at Montpellier over December, spending one night with friends in the manor house, and a second night in the Stables rooms - which led to quite contrasting experiences.

The Manor house is old and rustic - but there is a line between rustic, and unkept, which I think has been crossed. The house looks a little unloved, with black mould on the roof of the library, and a very under-equipped kitchen - not even a corkscrew at a wine farm venue! The rooms are at least clean and beds clean and comfortable. Could be stunning with just a touch of effort.

The second night it was just me and my wife, so we moved to the Stable rooms, which were lovely. The room was spacious and clean, with a lovely big path. Only complaint there was, again, no corkscrew available! You staying in the winelands, buy wine to enjoy on your stay, and can't open a bottle!

Stunning location, but the quality of the accommodation differed drastically between options
