Belle Vallée

Belle Vallée sits between the Hawekwa Mountains and the Berg River, about 55 minutes from Cape Town and close to Paarl, Franschhoek and Stellenbosch. Ceremonies are held in the Bush Chapel, an outdoor space among a stand of tall populus trees, and the reception follows in a function hall surrounded by the farm's vines. Sunset drinks on the lawns with the mountains behind are part of the pitch.

The farm offers the couple a private, self-catering bridal suite and a separate cottage for two, with an in-house wedding coordinator and in-house catering. Couples get the whole property to themselves on the day. Capacity and pricing are not published; enquiries go to the venue directly.
