On hot summer days we should probably not have afternoon tea on our sunset stoep. It is boiling in the direct sun! Only for the very brave at this time of day. Sweet things are best enjoyed indoors today. 🙂🍰

But from around 7.30pm it is the best spot to unwind and a sunset pairs perfectly with a G&T or glass of our chilled Hawksmoor wine.

Get into the Friday mood, take your mind off work and just take some time out. Ideally here with us of course!

Blue-sky weekend ahead!

What are your plans and where will you be hiding from the heat? (Did you see the weather forecast? 🔥)

We have some excellent suggestions for our guests - what to do when and where - if they need any. But they may just want a quiet, blissful weekend of doing absolutely nothing!

Take time just to REST. 🙂

Some early morning magic on the farm! If you're an early bird, it is well worth being up for a walkabout on the farm around 5am in mid-summer.

You'll be rewarded with fresh, crisp air and the glorious soft glow of a sunrise. Come enjoy it on the farm!

After a cool spell yesterday, we're back to heat again today! So there's a very good chance that our adorable 'security team' will be on a go-slow today.

We suspect they won't patrol the full perimeter fence. They may ignore the threat of advancing squirrels on the Manor House lawn. We doubt we'll get a single bark out of them.

But we warn guests that they will 'fall over' in random spots and expect belly rubs... Do NOT be manipulated. They get LOTS of attention, contrary to what they may tell you.

Just step over the pile of cuteness and continue with your day. 🙂🐾

That's all.

Imagine waking up here in our grey room on this cool grey summer's morning? Your private and cosy, yet elegant hideaway. An easy stroll to the pool for a morning dip before a hearty breakfast on our Manor House stoep.

Absolutely bliss! Book your farmstay. 🙂 Swipe to see this gorgeous room! www.hawksmoor.co.za

Today our guests may go out into the Winelands to go exploring or they may just stay home and enjoy the peace and beauty of their home on the farm.

We have a long list of suggestions of what to do, see and experience in the area and are always ready to assist our guests. But it is also a joy to have them around if they choose to just chill the day away! 🙂

When are you coming for your next Winelands Getaway?

"Man does not live by coffee alone. Have a danish." ~ Author unknown

Is there anything more indulgent in the morning than that first sip of flavourful coffee and the almost intoxicating smell of freshly baked pastries? ☕ 🥐

But we understand that some people may prefer a bowl of seasonal fruit and yogurt. Others want some cereal or a full cooked breakfast with toast. Whatever gets you going in the morning!

We make sure that our breakfast spread has a wide selection of options to choose from and is absolutely delicious. We also think breakfast tastes way better on the farm. 🙂

With another scorcher of a Saturday ahead, maybe some indoor snacking will be preferred?

Our beautiful long dining table in the Manor House is ideal for hours of 'kuiering' and picking at delicious treats on platters. Add some happy Hawksmoor Wines chilled on ice and you have yourself a festive occassion!

Stay cool today.
Stay hydrated.
Be Kind. 🙂

Did you know that we've done guided historical walks of Hawksmoor in the past? Special interest groups can come and enjoy a relaxing walkabout, learning about the fascinating history of our farm, the vineyards and wines, the homestead and outbuildings.

Groups also book tasting lunches which we can host inside our Manor House, under our beautiful old Oaks on the front lawn or even on our sunset stoep.

You're most welcome to contact us.

And now for something completely different! A #throwback to a spooky misty morning captured in early Winter.

In autumn and winter we often have a misty start to our day on the farm. It is a magical time of day to roam around on the 'werf' - enjoying the fresh cool air and waiting to see the sun break through. Just beautiful!

If you book a cosy winter stay with us, chances are good you'll enjoy a day or two starting out like this. 🙂

REPOST from @horseridesatpetes

"Sunset on the farm." 🐎

Did you know that you can book a guided horse ride through a 240Ha wildlife sanctuary situated only 8km from our farm?

Experienced guides will take you on an unforgettable ride on horseback through the game reserve, viewing zebra, springbok, eland, gemsbok, kudu, giraffe, wildebees, bontebok and a wide variety of birdlife. And you can even still see Table Mountain in the distance!

See www.horseridesatpetes.co.za

When we're given these bright yellow beauties, we don't only make lemonade!

We go all the way to marmalade and other preserves, delicious lemon meringue or lemon bread (for afternoon tea) and of course some slices end up happily floating in our afternoon G&T! 🙂 🍋

Living on the farm has some wonderful perks. Come experience a farmstay soon!

Good morning! We're just sharing this food pic to tempt you to book our delicious platters to enjoy - wherever you like!

On our sunset stoep, on our Manor House lawn under the Oaks, on your room patio, or even with a group of family and friends at our long dining room table. Find something to celebrate - our platters are amazing.

Hours of happy 'grazing' at leisure, guaranteed!

Our guests are always treated to a hearty breakfast (or brunch) before they go out exploring. How do YOU prefer your eggs?

Or if you're vegan or vegetarian - what is your favourite morning treat? Let us know. 🙂☕

Happy Saturday to you! Just for the record: there is a very good chance that absolutely NOTHING will happen on the farm today, especially as far as our furry friends are concerned. Our expectations of them have been lowered considerably! (Due to the heat.)

But we suspect things will change after 6pm. Sundowners on our stoep will be amazing! 🥂🐾

Just look at this view of the bosveld from the Dining room @zeelandhuys - a beautiful hideaway near Lephalale in the Limpopo province. Thanks so much to Astrid and Jan van Zeeland for 'accommodating' our wines. 😀🥂
