Vergelegen – No Ordinary Estate

Founded on 1 February 1700, Vergelegen (meaning "situated far away"), has been under the ownership of some of the world's great explorers and visionaries, each of whom, in their own way, have helped shape

Vergelegen to what it is today: a world-class Estate. With its world renowned handcrafted wines, history spanning over 300 years, heritage, exquisite gardens an

d refined cuisine, it comes as no surprise that Vergelegen continues to be the choice of the discerning visitor seeking a total sensory experience. For this reason, the Estate has borne witness to many visits of heads of state and celebrities from all over the world. Think of Vergelegen to spend quality time on your own, with your family and friends or business associates - wine tasting centre and cellar tours, Camphors at Vergelegen Signature Restaurant, Stables at Vergelegen Bistro Restaurant and the Picnic, are only a few of a myriad of enjoyable activities at Vergelegen.

✨ Celebrating Our UK Team ✨
Across oceans and time zones, our UK team ensures that the spirit of Vergelegen is felt far beyond our estate — carrying our story, our wines, and our heritage with passion and pride.

At the heart of this is Laura Sullivan, our International Sales Manager, who for 18 remarkable years has been a steadfast ambassador for Vergelegen in the UK and Europe. Her knowledge is deep and expansive, her wit wonderfully sharp, and her connection to the estate profound — a true guardian of our history and storyteller of our future.

Alongside her is Jess Scarratt, our dynamic Brand Ambassador, whose energy and dedication bring Vergelegen vividly to life in every interaction, and Clare and Natasha, our incredible PR duo — a dream team who ensure our voice is heard and our story beautifully shared.

Together, they are more than a team. They are our presence abroad, our champions, and an extension of the Vergelegen family, making the estate feel at home, no matter the distance. 🍷

Today we officially opened our new Learning Centre for our younger children — giving them a warm, dedicated space to grow, explore, and build strong foundations for their schooling journey.

This little hub will focus on Numeracy, Literacy, and Art, guided by two incredible teachers who bring both heart and passion into every lesson. The centre has been lovingly created through the renovation of an old building on the farm, and it’s wonderful to see it filled with new purpose and energy.

This initiative builds on the success of our existing learning hub, which has been supporting high school learners with homework and academic guidance for the past few years. Seeing how that space has already helped shape brighter futures has inspired us even more.

We truly hope this new centre will make an even greater difference — helping our younger children feel confident, supported, and ready for all the learning ahead of them at school, and ultimately, in life.

Here’s to nurturing bright minds and even brighter futures 🌟

Vergelegen is…

More than a wine farm. It’s the nature that surrounds you, the people who welcome you, and landscapes shaped over time, rich with story.
It is in the experiences that linger long after you leave.

Here, diversity thrives, in fauna and flora, in heritage deeply rooted, and in a culture quietly present in every detail.
It is a place to escape the overwhelming bustle of the world, or to celebrate life’s special occasions. A place that becomes part of your story, where memories are made with those who matter most.

Time slows down here. There is space for self-care, for a little indulgence, and for simply being.
It is excellence, open to all, grounded in community.

With a deep commitment to the future and generations to come, Vergelegen remains historic, yet timeless.

Vergelegen is many things… but more than anything, it is yours to experience.

This is Vergelegen.
