Loch Lynne Wine Estate in 7550, open JanuaryDecember.

Rolling vineyards stretch across Durbanville's hillsides at Loch Lynne Wine Estate, where indigenous fynbos vegetation frames panoramic views of Table Mountain in the distance.

Award-winning wines produced on-site serve as both venue feature and celebration centerpiece.

SUPERB VENUE AND TEAM! We are a couple based in the UK who recently had our wedding at Loch Lynne. We found the venue online but had not been there in person until a few days before the big day. We chose their all inclusive package as it was amazing value. From day one, the Loch Lynne team were responsive, helpful and so lovely to deal with. The vendors we were allocated blew us away with their quality and service. {Special shout out to our coordinator, Robyn from Bisous Events.) And when we finally got to see the venue in person, we were over the moon with how beautiful and perfect it was! The day flowed SO seamlessly and was as low stress as it could possibly be! Our guests enjoyed themselves thoroughly and plenty photos were taken both outside and inside. We had the best day of our lives at Loch Lynne and cannot recommend this venue enough for future couples :)
