Overview & Capacity

Groot Constantia is South Africa's oldest wine estate, and corporate events here run through its two restaurants - Simon's and Jonkershuis - with configurable rooms, terraces, a boardroom from R850 a head minimum spend, and tastings or cellar tours slotting straight into the programme. This is heritage-specialty territory: client dinners, wine-paired year-ends and launches that want 1685 on the invitation, not plenary conferencing. Heritage rules and the no-outside-beverage policy shape what we can build and pour. The werf at golden hour remains one of the Cape's great free special effects.

B&W Production Notes
