Description
Kalmoesfontein Farm, the home of AA Badenhorst Family Wines, is a rustic wedding venue situated in the Paardeberg, between Malmesbury and Wellington (75 km / 1 hour from Cape Town).
The venue is an old house on a working wine farm, with a big open zinc-dak back stoep. Rustic to the core, the original farmhouse dates from the turn of the 19th century. It is set amid the vines and features a fully equipped kitchen. There is an under-cover back porch with ambient lighting and a dancefloor under the stars.
The versatile venue can comfortably host both big and small weddings. Celebrations with circles as tight as 19 guests, to the back stoep that seats 120 guests. By adding a stretch tent, they can accommodate up to 200 guests.

Ceremonies can be celebrated on the lawn in front of the wine cellar, under the archway by the farmhouse stoep; or in a unique clearing in ‘die bloekom bos’ under the maypole.
