Vergelegen Easter Egg Hunt

Celebrate Easter Sunday with a special morning for little ones at Vergelegen. Our much-loved Easter Egg Hunt returns on Sunday, 5 April 2026, and tickets are now available.

The hunt begins promptly at 09h00 in the beautiful Octagonal Garden, established more than 300 years ago. With ancient trees and colourful seasonal plantings, the garden offers the perfect setting – and plenty of secret hiding places – for delicious Easter treats.

Soak up the last sunny days at The Vergelegen Creamery

We’ve had so much fun scooping up the most delicious ice creams made from scratch by Chef Tarquin and her talented team this summer! Who remembers our limited‑edition Christmas Cake flavour from December? And have you tried the nostalgic rum & raisin, or are you a die‑hard vanilla fan? Make the most of these last balmy, sun‑soaked days and swing by our Creamery for a final taste of summer. We also serve a selection of takeaway coffees.

Find the Vergelegen Creamery at our Picnic building, opposite the Rose Terrace Tea Room.

Celebrating our storytellers: The Heritage Range

Raise a glass to Vergelegen’s Heritage Range – a collection where elegance, history, and pure delight meet in every sip. From the radiant Florence Rosé, whose 2025 vintage boasts the most breathtaking blush you’ve ever seen in a rosé, to the vibrant Wild Winds Sauvignon Blanc shaped by its dramatic hilltop home overlooking blustery False Bay, to the ever‑popular Mill Race red blend inspired by the estate’s old water furrow - each wine tells a chapter of Vergelegen’s remarkable story.

These light‑to‑medium bodied, effortlessly enjoyable wines bring charm to everyday moments and sparkle to special gatherings. Come discover your new favourites and experience how tradition and innovation beautifully intertwine in our Heritage Range. Cheers to sharing Vergelegen’s legacy – one delicious sip at a time!

Update on Stables

We have been truly overwhelmed by the support from everyone following the fire that broke out at Stables on 3 March. Thank you for the heartfelt messages from neighbours, loyal local supporters, and friends from afar. We appreciate every single one.

While it will take time to restore our beloved Stables to its former glory, our team is working hard behind the scenes to create something special. From mid‑April, we look forward to once again welcoming more guests to Vergelegen to enjoy delicious food and wine prepared by our dedicated Stables team – a vital step to ensure our wonderful staff are taken care of during this time.

We are deeply grateful to the incredible firefighters whose swift action contained the fire in time. Thankfully, although devastating, the damage was limited to Stables only, and the rest of the estate remains open and ready to welcome you.

In the meantime, enjoy the following at Vergelegen:

  • A lovely wine tasting and cheese plate at the Tasting Room
  • A delicious bagel or slice of cake at the Rose Terrace Tea Room
  • Ice cream from our very own Vergelegen Creamery
  • Shopping at the Potting Shed Gift Shop
