Uitkyk is offering delicious gourmet picnics and cheese platters that will guarantee anyone a memorable daytrip to the Cape Winelands this summer.   Enjoy a delicious picnic on the sprawling lawns surrounding the estate’s neo-classical manor house from 1788, or on its terrace while the kids keep themselves entertained on the Dreamweavers jungle gym. 

You can also order a cheese platter in the tasting centre to savour with some of Uitkyk’s delicious wines. 

A gourmet picnic basket for two at R300, including a bottle of wine, is available but must be booked 24 hours in advance.

Guests are welcome to bring their own picnic baskets, in which case a R50 entrance fee will be applicable.  This fee will however be waivered if more than R100 is spent on wine purchases at the estate’s tasting centre. 

Guests may also bring picnic blankets and chairs, but picnic blankets can also be booked at no cost.

A cheese platter for four is offered at R120 and can be ordered on arrival. 

Uitkyk’s festive trading hours are Mondays to Fridays from 9:00 to 17:00 and Saturdays and Sundays from 10:00 to 16:00.
