Grande Roche Hotel

wedding venue in Paarl

Updated
Nov 2026

Grande Roche is a historic estate on the slopes of Paarl Mountain with a modern, climate-controlled venue that opens onto the gardens, with a water feature and views of Paarl Rock. Ceremonies take place on Winnifred's Lawn or the Lookout Lawn, which can be paired with an asado braai for a relaxed celebration.

A petite chapel some 300 years old is used for elopements and vow renewals, and the Library and Winnifred's Lounge suit small gatherings. The hotel offers full wedding coordination, backup power and secure parking, and couples can have their names engraved on a brass plaque. Wedding, small-wedding and elopement packages for 2026 to 2028 are published as PDFs.
