Tanagra Wine and Guest Farm is a highly recommended property for self catering in McGregor for anyone visiting the Breede River Valley region.

About Tanagra Wine and Guest Farm

Tanagra is an idyllic wine and guest farm with character in the McGregor Valley providing a stylish and yet authentic countryside experience in tastefully furnished accommodation for the wine and nature lover. Tanagra is a wine farm surrounded by vineyards, indigenous fynbos and mountains. It is located 4.5 km outside McGregor and adjoins the Vrolijkheid Nature Reserve.

Most parts of the farm are accessible by various walking / hiking trails (also great for mountain-biking), which can easily be extended into the neighbouring Vrolikjkheid Nature Reserve. It is a great place for bird-watching (172 species have recently been specified). The quaint 19thc village of McGregor is located just 5 km further up the road (which ends there!) and is a great spot to experience country hospitality at its best.

Accommodation

Tanagra offers six units, three cottages (Garden Cottage, Hill Cottage, Faraway), two apartments (Bottlebrush and Gumtree) and the Loft studio. Most units are located around the old historic Tanagra homestead and the boutique wine cellar. The Hill Cottage sits in the midst of fynbos overlooking the vineyards with spectacular views into the McGregor valley. Faraway is a new addition to the farm cottages, an eco and architect's house located at the most solitary spot on the farm – just fynbos and mountains and silence.

All units have their own unique character, are tastefully furnished with the intention to provide a naturally elegant farm ambience (see eg stone structures, reed ceilings, carefully chosen equipment) and boast scenic views on mountains and / or dam. Please note that most units sleep two adults (exceptions possible for Loft studio, the Garden Cottage and Gumtree Apartment on request); Faraway has two en-suite bedrooms and sleeps four persons (extra beds possible for children).

Please see the individual cottage or unit descriptions and photographs below, to assist you with your choice.

Service

Your hosts Anette and Robert will give you a warm and personal welcome and gladly show you the farm and introduce you to the Tanagra wines and grappas in private tastings (see also ‘wine and grappa experience at Tanagra' below). Guests have the choice between keeping privately to themselves (all units secure your privacy) or joining each other in the garden (and winery). The units are fully serviced every third day (linen change every 6 days). English and German spoken.

Facilities

• King-size beds (Queen bed in Hill Cottage; one Kingsize bed and two twin beds in Faraway)
• Private patios / verandahs with scenic views
• Open fireplaces (indoors) and outside braais

Please note that we deliberately did not equip the rooms with TV to stress the peaceful and private character of your countryside escape. (Rugby or cricket matches can be watched with the locals at the Old Post Office Pub in McGregor).

Wine experience at Tanagra

Tanagra is a boutique wine cellar producing hand-crafted distinctive wines (mainly noble red wines) maturing in French oak. A boutique distillery has been at work since December 2009, producing top-range European style Grappas and Eau de Vies. You are welcome to explore the vineyards and get personally introduced to the cellar and the Tanagra wines by the owners and your hosts Anette and Robert.

Great little cottage. Nice and quiet. Only criticism is that a bit of maintenance would have been nice. Taps in kitchen etc.
