“Met and welcomed with the biggest smiles by the friendliest people. Quick guide of switches, lights etc and then a one way street, only when I needed assistance, did I hear and see Carmel, very private indeed.”

“We where specifically looking accommodation close to Vergelegen and Lourensford wine estates - On Helderberg popped up as a new option and given its location and proximity to the wine farms we jumped it - very happy that we did. Spacious, clean...”

“It was a very comfortable stay. I had privacy, and it was secure, with secure, locked parking for my vehicle.
All the personal touches just made it that much more enjoyable and it felt like a home away from home.
I would definitely stay there...”

Nestled away from the road and just off the famous Helderberg Nature Reserve sits a serene location you are sure to love. Whether you are here for golf, mountain biking, wine touring, business or simply to experience the beauty of this amazing location, “On-Upper Mountain” is a gem to experience.
This one-bedroom apartment has a lovely en-suite bathroom with spacious shower, separate lounge/kitchen opening on to a private patio which overlooks the garden, blue-gum forest and stretching to False Bay and the Hottentots-Holland mountains.
Beauty and peace are hallmarks of this location and your host Carmel will be glad to advise you on the many local treasures which include Erinvale, Lourensford, Vergelegen and all the winelands has to offer to Stellenbosch and beyond.
