There is absolutely no harm in planning ahead, and looking forward to Christmas celebrations is part of the whole ritual that we all enjoy. Fortunately for us, Plume Vineyard Restaurant are very good at planning ahead, and this month they have been good enough to give us an early peek of their Christmas menu.
Whatever the private occasion, celebration, anniversary or re-union families can make themselves at home at Plume Vineyard Restaurant knowing that everything is taken care of. Add to that the fact that they can now stay the night at one of their 12 boutique luxury villas on the same site. As well as enjoying a lunch or dinner at Plume’s famous restaurant, you can relax in the peaceful country setting surrounding the villas’ beautifully landscaped environment.
You will also have access to the cellar door, cuisine and conviviality on hand at Plume Restaurant, a relaxed stroll from your private and comfortable luxury villa. And now that you are staying the night, you can avail yourself of their superbly refurbished wine centre where you can sit in leisure and taste their French and Italian grape varieties. This area is set aside for the appreciation and understanding of wine, seating up to eight people at a time.
