Having undergone a significant refurbishment in 2023, Delaire Graff Estate reopened its doors with 16 luxurious lodges and an Owner’s Villa, a tranquil spa, and a Japanese restaurant, HŌSEKI.

A Retreat Shaped by the Elements: Emma Blunt Experiences Simbavati Cederberg Ridge

There’s something about the Cederberg that gets under your skin. Here, the elements of nature aren’t just a backdrop; they breathe life into the experience, shaping every moment. The earth, ancient and wise, stretches out in ochre-hued rock formations and fynbos-covered valleys. The air, crisp and scented with wild herbs, fills your lungs as you mountain bike through untouched wilderness.

The fire of the sun ignites the sky in a blaze of gold at sunset, only to be echoed later in the flickering flames of the boma. And the water, cool and restorative, offers a welcome retreat in the heat of the day, whether in the lodge’s pools or a refreshing sip of locally sourced rooibos tea.

The Gem Of The Winelands: Emma Blunt Explores The Beauty Of Delaire Graff Estate

The word ‘luxury’ is highly subjective, transcending material definitions of excess and instead being deeply tied to an individual’s perceptions, cultural background, and personal desires. This subjectivity is what makes the concept of luxury so dynamic and intriguing.

However, if there is one place I think everyone would agree deserves this ever-evolving ‘title’, it would be Delaire Graff Estate. Placed perfectly within South Africa’s Stellenbosch wine region, the estate invites you to sink into serenity, surrounded by dramatic views, world-class wine, art that speaks to your soul and a team so professional yet personable, committed to championing community and sustainability.

A Culinary Love Letter to the Cape: Emma Blunt Dines at JAN Franschhoek

The experience at JAN Franschhoek begins long before the first bite. This is not simply a meal – it is a love letter to the Cape, a poetic tribute to its landscapes, its people, and the traditions that shape its cuisine. Set against a breathtaking backdrop of lavender fields, vineyards, and mountains, this intimate dining experience unfolds like verses on a page, where each dish is a carefully chosen word, each sip a lingering pause. Seasonality, sustainability, and South Africa’s rich culinary heritage are woven into every course, penned with the precision of a masterful storyteller.

The afternoon began with anticipation, a quiet thrill that built as we arrived at the La Motte Wine Estate. The sun hung high in the sky, casting a golden glow over the vineyards, and the scent of warm earth and ripening fruit lingered in the air. Glasses of MCC sparkled in the light, clinking gently against the hum of conversation.

Diane McLeish helps you to Plan your excitng African Safari

An African safari might just be the best holiday you can give yourself as the exceptional experiences that the continent offers are unforgettable adventures.

Once you set foot on its shores, Africa takes hold of you. The epic scale of wide spaces is inspiring, the diversity makes every moment special and the rhythm and sounds of the bush play with your senses as every day brings you a deeper sense of enchantment.

The word safari conjures up images of wildlife, vast African savannahs, wide skies and 4×4 vehicles gliding across the plains.

Safari means “journey” in Swahili, the language of East Africa and is synonymous with Africa. It is a journey into the wilderness to observe free-roaming wildlife, with no hunting involved.

Where the Wild Breathes: Emma Blunt Slows Down in the Soul of Bushman’s Kloof

The land breathes here. It inhales the past, the stories etched into stone, the whispers of the wind through ancient rock formations. It exhales life, regeneration, the quiet pulse of nature reclaiming itself. Bushman’s Kloof is not a place to rush through; it’s a place to slow down, to let the wilderness wrap around you, to feel your own breath sync with the rhythm of the earth.

Tucked away in the Cederberg Mountains, this private wilderness reserve and wellness spans 7,500 hectares, once farmland, now a testament to the patience of nature’s restoration. Four farms were merged to create what it is today, and while remnants of its past life still linger – patches of farmland, the ongoing battle against invasive plant species like boar Jackson – the transformation is evident.

Diane McLeish reviews a luxurious Rovos Rail journey South Africa to Zimbabwe

I love to travel. The greatest journeys, however, are by train.

Rail journeys are wonderful and all are in some way exceptional – the cross-section of life they carry, the scenery they pass through or the distances they travel.

In an age when it is seen as if the romance has been leached out of travel and the demand for “slow travel” grows, train journeys are bringing travels to less-trodden places often in grand style.

The demand is not new, but these kinds of journeys are more and more on traveller’s wish lists and the trend now for rail travel is to slow down and see more and enjoy the journey. It is not so much about reliving the past but finding novel ways to be present. This certainly includes iconic journeys such as South Africa’s Rovos Rail which is a privately owned and family-run business and ranked as one of the top luxurious train journeys in the world.
