Heritage & Location

Situated on the edge of Cape Town’s Northern suburbs, Evertsdal is strategically placed close to the hubs of Durbanville and Tyger Valley—offering easy access to both fine wine estates and the city’s amenities. The estate’s origins date back to 1710, when it was officially proclaimed as "Eversdale." Over the centuries, its ownership passed through several notable figures—including former enslaved individual Abraham Evert, who received the land as a free burgher in the 1680s from Jan van Riebeeck.

Accommodation & Facilities

Evertsdal comprises five charming Cape Dutch and Victorian-style buildings spread across spacious, landscaped gardens. The guest house offers modern comforts such as air conditioning, DSTV, Wi‑Fi, tea/coffee stations, minibars, and some rooms even include kitchenettes. On-site amenities include a swimming pool, braai facilities, conference rooms, and on-demand in-house catering—ideal for functions, intimate weddings, or small group stays.
