I love sitting outside looking over the vineyards of this historic wine farm watching the sun go down with a glass of wine. The food is delicious too and has local fare available. Very close to Sunbirds.

Constantia Village
It has everything you will need.
This is a great place to spend a morning or afternoon. It has loads of quirky little shops from clothing to art and everything in between. The coffee shops and restaurants are varied in style and budget, don't forget to have an ice cream in a cone after your meal. We love combining a run/walk along the coastal path, with a swim at the Dalebrook tidal pool, followed by coffee and breakfast.
