Of Art, Wine and Wonder: A Cultural Canvas in the Stellenbosch Winelands
March 2025
Ever wondered what really goes on behind the grand gates of Le Grand Jardin? Welcome to our blog where nothing is too small, quirky or sparkly to share! From last-minute wedding miracles to the community story behind the hand-printed African Sketchbook wallpaper or the design inspiration for our new fire pit, this blog is your backstage pass to the heart and soul of our Stellenbosch sanctuary.
This is where the magic really spills out – one surprise movie night under the stars or one impromptu garden party at a time. Expect charming anecdotes and real-life stories from the creators of Wonderland Escapes… art collectors, adventurers, dreamers, wine-lovers and eternal children at heart. Anyway, every historic villa worth its roses has at least one secret, doesn’t it?
Thank you to everyone who has visited and penned their stories or photographed and shared the love for our grand dame – your kind words, curious eyes, and unfiltered delight mean the world to us (and the slightly suspicious White Rabbit who swears he’s just “passing through”).
We never set out to make headlines – just beautiful spaces, create a little wonder. Here’s what the world has been whispering, writing and occasionally shouting about our whimsical corner of Stellenbosch…
