"Set in the Franschhoek wine country, Babylonstoren is a celebration of food and agriculture: a working farm, a kitchen garden, a farm-to-fork restaurant, and, obviously, a small luxury hotel, complete with an impressive little spa." - Mark Fedeli
"Babylonstoren is one of Cape Town’s most popular vineyards and is great for a lunch break between tastings around Stellenbosch and Franschoek. There are two restaurants, Babel and the Greenhouse Restaurant, that are both located on its working farm. Babel does fine dining and offers family-style platters for group bookings and a seasonal à la carte menu for smaller parties, while the Greenhouse Restaurant is more casual, situated in the middle of the farm’s produce gardens, and serves dishes like spiced garden pot pie and Spanish cured pork loin. Don’t miss out on the farm’s expansive wine tasting menu, featuring Babylonstoren’s flagship wines like the Nebukadnesar and Sprankel. If you’re hoping to eat at Babel, make sure to book a spot—it’s one of the most popular stops along Cape Town’s wine routes, and reservations open nine months in advance." - bri cave

"About an hour outside of Cape Town, Babylonstoren is one of South Africa’s oldest werfs , or farmyards. In 2010, Karen Roos, a former editor at South Africa’s Elle Decoration , reimagined the property as a fantasy farm stay with an eight-acre garden that grows 300 varieties of fruits and vegetables. Guests are welcome to help the head gardener prune and plant, and to join the chef in his daily harvest. Some of the 13 laborers’ cottages that have been rebuiltas guestroomsfeature kitchens for those who want to pick and prep their own meals."
"Babylonstoren in South Africa is famous for its fragrant fynbos gardens and delicious blueberry scones, providing a sensory experience for visitors."
