Farm restaurants in the Western Cape Province.

Here in South Africa I will show you one of the many farm restaurants that we have on the wine route.

Oh yes, we live in a beautiful part of the country and the Western Cape Province is on the Southern tip of the African continent. The main city is Cape Town and the rural areas consist of smaller farming towns that produce wines and many other crops. So there is much of everything over here and the history buffs will find the areas fascinating.
Raw beauty of the many mountains, nature and the oceans dominate and it is a travelers paradise.

Today I will show you a restaurant that we explored on one of the farms in the area and the farm is called Sweetwell. It is on the R44 road between the towns of Somerset West and Stellenbosch, a wine rich area that has a beauty beyond compare. Tourists from many countries can be seen in this area every day, as it is a very popular place to visit.
So come and enjoy the sights.

A restaurant with a beautiful view.

Look what I found! I was so delighted to see this old gramophone below with the big brass speaker, as we had one on the farm when I was child. Sadly this one is not for sale.
There was even an old 33rpm vinyl long playing record on it's turntable.

There is also a lovely farm stall outside with a range of arty items made by some of the ladies on the farm.

At the side of the restaurant I saw this huge Prickly Pear bush that was tree size. But a slight movement caught my eye below the bush.

Can you believe it? There were three ducks below the bush.

Vineyards all over the place and I think that I told you that many types of wine are produced in the area.

Finally, just to show you the rising moon on the mountain tips that we saw on our way back.

Many brands of wine are produced on the farms and fruits like oranges, lemons, pears and apples are exported in huge tonnages. Strawberries, blackberries and other types of berries are also farmed and the area is a veritable breadbasket. Some farms also have cattle and one farm here breeds the champion race horses. Food and wine are also paired at the many wine tasting rooms on the farms and they grow a variety of olive types.
For nature lovers, this is the place to be as the beauty is in abundance and miles of grape vineyards are surrounded by the valleys and peaks of mountains.

So, I hope that you have enjoyed your visual visit to the Sweetwell restaurant and may everyone have a great day.

And That's All Friends.
