A variety of books that depict the wonder world of fungi are available in the blue-purple Purpureum library. The library also serves as conference room and media centre.

Garden

The sculptures of the renowned South African landscape artist Strijdom van der Merwe are prominent features in this Stellenbosch Boutique Hotel’s formal garden. They unite the old and new growth patterns of mushrooms. The colours and textures of mushrooms are reflected in a subtle way in the choice and layout of a wide variety of plants in seasonal displays. The swimming pool terrace and surrounding areas invite guests to discover the elegant and spectacular garden design of Andres de Wet. A private open-air massage area forms the focus point of the Zen area.

The huge palm trees, rose garden, trees and shrubs are a combination of plants that makes an authentic South African impression. The front veranda with its day couches and ceiling fans gives a feeling of a bygone colonial era. The original Digteby wall panel with colourful bird species and red-white Amanita mushrooms is a link to the past. Gin, estate wines and Van Ryn brandies complement the pleasure of the wide view of the garden landscape – especially at sunset truly bringing you the best of Luxury Accommodation
