Leeu Estates (opening 2016), an exclusive five-star boutique hotel property with 21 luxuriously appointed rooms and suites, takes central position on 68 hectares of vinyards, landscaped gardens and fynbos (indigenous vegetation) in the Franschhoek valley. Positioned betweem the mountainside and river, just minutes away from the village of Franschhoek, it is the ideal setting for an elegant and sophisticated private hideaway, offering superb comfort, fine dining and platinum service. At the centre of this working wine farm is the meticulously refurbished 19th century Manor House with its six rooms and suites. There are two rooms adjacent to the Manor House, and the remaining rooms and suites are located in spacious cottages among the gardens, oak trees and vinyards.
An expression of love, the Bokkie Garden is very close to owner Analjit Singh's heart. The Afrikaans word
bokkie means small buck but is also a term of endearment used by South Africans, camparable to 'beloved' or 'sweetheart'. Pivotal to the Franchesca Watson designed garden with its herd of small buck is 'Reflective Resonance' by acclaimed sculptor Angus Taylor. It is a powerful piece in bronze and Belfast granite that is set to become a Franschhoek landmark.
