OUR STORY
A Family Legacy Since 2008
LUMLEY’S PLACE is a family owned and operated guesthouse in the heart of Cape Winelands. Nestled in the Dwarsrivier Valley, we offer 5 en-suites rooms, comfortable lounge areas with sweeping views of the surrounding mountains, and a refreshing swimming pool. Wholesome breakfasts can be enjoyed in the outdoor or indoor dining areas before you set off on your day of exploring.
Benita and Peter – owners of Lumley’s Place – were born in this valley: Benita in Johannesdal and Peter in Pniël, which is also a former mission station. They share a passion for the area’s rich history, friendly people, and peaceful surroundings which make one feel for a moment that they have stepped into a bygone era.
