A vineyard between heaven & earth

Cradled amid the hills of the Hemel-en-Aarde (Heaven and Earth) valley,
Bouchard Finlayson is widely acclaimed as one of South Africa’s leading boutique wine cellars.

With a terroir defined by both ancient soils and a cool maritime climate, the vineyards of Bouchard Finlayson are famous for producing award-winning
Pinot Noir, elegant Chardonnay and terroir-driven Sauvignon Blanc, while inspired blends showcase the depth of skill and innovation in our winemaking team.

The Bouchard Finlayson cellar is conveniently located a scenic 90 minutes’ drive from Cape Town, close to the world-famous whale-watching centre of Hermanus.

When you arrive...

Guests are requested to arrive at least five minutes before treatment is due to start in order to change, if desired, and to fill out a medical questionnaire. Late arrival will mean that your treatment time is reduced or unable to be honoured. All treatment times indicated include an allowance of five minutes for consultation, dressing and undressing.

For the comfort and consideration of all our guests, a no smoking policy is operated throughout The Spa and we ask that mobile phones are switched off during your visit.
