A Heritage Restored
Before the town of Robertson was formally founded in 1853, there was De Oude Opstal. This extraordinary Cape Dutch Manor is recognised as the area’s original structure, the essential outpost of the Cape frontier. To step onto the grounds is to step back two centuries, allowing the deep, tangible history of the Breede River Valley to envelop you. This rich lineage anchors Robertson Manor as a rare and authentic luxury country retreat on Route 62.
The true luxury of the Manor lies in the integrity of its restoration. This sensitive project was driven by the uncompromising vision of Mandy Sayer, the force celebrated for the meticulous revival of Cape Town’s Mutual Heights and the creation of The Grand Hotel Robertson. Her commitment ensures that every original beam and window retains its vintage old charm, while the operational infrastructure is elevated to a modern 5-star standard.
Robertson Manor represents the culmination of this legacy, a rare opportunity for guests to experience the oldest story in the Valley of Wine and Roses through the lens of modern, bespoke luxury. It is a genuine piece of South African heritage, thoughtfully re-born for the discerning traveller seeking an exclusive Winelands escape.
