This summer, as the gardens burst into colour and the scent of fresh blooms fills the air, The Cellars-Hohenort Hotel & Spa invites guests to a tranquil garden experience in support of St Luke’s Combined Hospices.

The charity event will take place on Sunday, 30 November 2025, from 11h00 to 17h00, when visitors can meander through The Cellars-Hohenort’s exquisite grounds, taking in meticulously curated landscapes that range from lush, expansive lawns to hidden garden nooks where nature’s artistry takes centre stage. Testament to a rich history, a shady forest section of the gardens boasts magnificent camphor trees dating back 300 years. Elsewhere, the Formal Rose Garden includes the Liz McGrath Rose, which was hybridised in 2003 to commemorate the 80th birthday of the late Mrs McGrath, the founder of The Liz McGrath Collection.

Guests are invited to enjoy the warm hospitality of The Liz McGrath Collection, with tickets including a cup of tea and a freshly baked scone, served on the elegant Hohenort terrace.

Tickets are available exclusively through Quicket (R195 per adult and R95 for children aged 12 and under) and must be purchased in advance, as no tickets will be sold on the day of the event. Proceeds will be donated to St Luke’s Combined Hospices, supporting their invaluable work in providing compassionate palliative care to those in need across the community.

Join The Cellars-Hohenort for a peaceful summer afternoon surrounded by beauty and purpose, celebrating nature, community, and compassion, and help make a meaningful difference with every step through the gardens.

Come and celebrate with Florentin and Paisley Bear Wine Club and experience an unforgettable evening with fine wines and a Mediterranean feast!

Summer Set Menu | R499 pp sharing, excluding gratuity

Arrival
Freshly made totopos with three “mother” sauces
Guests begin with warm, crisp totopos (freshly made tortilla chips) accompanied by Hacienda’s signature trio of sauces. A compelling opener that sets the tone for sharing and discovery.

Kingklip Ceviche
A bright, fresh dish featuring lime cured kingklip, accompanied by leche de tigre, avocado crème, salmon roe and pico de gallo. Vibrant citrus notes, creamy avocado, and a briny pop from the roe make this a standout

Tomates  Criollos
Charred heritage tomatoes served with salsa verde foam and a persilla (parsley) consommé. A vegetarian friendly highlight that uses the summer produce brilliantly — smoky, fresh, light yet flavourful.

Extremos Quemados
Char grilled brisket glazed with carne de piña, served with salsa macha and pickled sandia (watermelon). Rich and smoky with a sweet tangy twist from the pineapple glaze and pickled watermelon - a bold land based dish.

Cordero Tierno
Tender lamb shank marinated in achiote rojo, paired with fermented chips and fennel. This dish brings a hearty, robust main with a refined twist — the achiote adds colour and warmth, the chips provide texture, and fennel lends aromatic lift.

Maíz en Polvo
Guajillo marinated corn with ancho honey, queso fresco and spiced aioli. This is a clever interlude of flavour and texture - the sweet spicy marinade meets creamy cheese, the corn providing a satisfying bite

Cosecha de Jardín
A garden style dish of edamame, fresh corn, roasted poblano and smoked chipotle - a lighter, yet flavour packed vegetable plate that balances the richness of previous courses and honours fresh summer produce.

Dessert & Finale
Pickled Lemon & Mace Yoghurt followed by Candy Floss
