The Durbanville Wine Route is virtually on our doorstep with the Durbanville Hills wine estate a mere 10 minute drive from Portobello Place. After sampling some of their award winning wines why not meander on to Hillcrest or Meerendal Estate, just a stone's throw from Durbanville Hills. Cosy restaurants are the order of the day and make for a wonderful weekend outing.
