# Modern House In Opulent Setting Grabouw, South Africa > In its opulent setting on the banks of the Palmiet River and a private lake in the Elgin Valley, it shines in a class of its own. Years of searching for the perfect location finally revealed Elgin’s cool-climate terroir as an elegant setting for growing grapes to produce exceptional Burgundian-style Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Riesling and Rosé varietals. The Wilson family’s non-interventionist artisanal wine-making technique flows into the feel of the house: a feat of modern architecture, designed with sensitivity towards the environment. Lothian estate is distinguished by nature, positioned in the Kogelberg Biosphere, which possesses 1654 plant species found nowhere else on earth. Guests are treated to a theatrical show of nature with sightings of rare Cape Leopard, African Fish Eagle, Cape Clawless Otter and Cape Eagle Owl between an array of outdoor experiences. This three-year-long labour of love has resulted in the achievement of award-winning wines and the beguiling lifestyle of an unparalleled countryside retreat. ## Key facts - **Location:** Grabouw, South Africa - **Property type:** Six Bedroom - **Sleeps:** 16 guests - **Bedrooms:** 6 - **Bathrooms:** 6 - **Check-in:** 15:00 - **Check-out:** 10:00 - **Minimum stay:** 3 nights ## Amenities - accessible height bed - accessible height toilet - air conditioning - BBQ grill - bathtub - Bed Linen - Cable TV - Disinfectants used for cleaning - cleaning before checkout - coffee maker - Cookware & Kitchen Utensils - Cribs Available - Crockery & Cutlery - Dishwasher - Dryer - Toiletries - extra pillows and blankets - Family/kids friendly - Free Parking - garden - Gym - Hair Dryer - hanger - Hot Tub - hot water - internet connection - Iron - kettle - Kitchen - Long term stays - microwave - Outdoor Pool - oven - private entrance - Private pool - Refrigerator - Safe - Complimentary Soap/Shampoo/Conditioner - stove - swimming pool - TV - toaster - Towels - Washing Machine - Wireless Internet ## Pricing & availability (next 90 days) Nightly prices below are **estimates — the final price is confirmed at booking** in a personal quote (fees, length-of-stay discounts and the payment schedule are stated there).
