Zorgvliet Herenhuis 1692 Restaurant The original manor house on the Zorgvliet farm underwent a complete transformation to restore the old house to its former glory and it currently houses the Zorgvliet Herenhuis restaurant. The original homestead was saved from complete decay and specific attention was given to the conservation of existing structures. The preservation of the ceilings, which were restored after exhaustive efforts, has lent a unique atmosphere to the restaurant. The Herenhuis now once again boasts with a thatch roof and has recaptured the romantic facade of years gone by. The driveway has been replanted with date palms to restore the original look of the house. The previous time that the manor house was restored so meticulously was in 1860 after the house was virtually destroyed in a fire. The farm then belonged to Christiaan Frederik Beyers, father of the Boer General CF Beyers, who was born in the house in 1869 and later became the owner of the farm. Visitors to the Zorgvliet estate can now relish in the nostalgia of yesteryear while enjoying the unsurpassed beauty of the Banhoek Valley combined with delectable gourmet cooking. Enjoy traditional Cape cooking with a modern interpretation. Local artist Robert Koch was commissioned to portray the exquisite Banhoek Valley and the Zorgvliet manor house in a series of seven paintings. These paintings now form an integral part of the atmosphere and grace each of the three eating rooms, namely the Banhoek Kitchen, the Beyers Room and the Bootmanskop Room, referring to the old Cape mariners. south africa accommodation accommodation south africa cape town accommodation accommodation cape town accommodation |
