			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>&#8230; in a tranquil haven of 5 star quality. The interior decorating of Coopmanhuijs Boutique Hotel &amp; Spa was attended to by Helena Pieterse &#8211; with the same exquisite result as at her earlier project, Fancourt Hotel &amp; Country Club Estate at George.</p>
<p>In order to preserve the dignity and charm of a bygone era, the decor is elegant.  This is achieved, yet there is an underlying contemporary feel together with emphasis on the organic and the real.  The interplay of colours and textures provoke a tangible sense of comfort.  Coarse hand-woven silk, jute, linen, cotton and vibrantly coloured velvets.  The bedrooms with their soothing colours have been furnished with fine Egyptian cotton bed linen.  Three of the 14 bedrooms have their own small lounges and all bedrooms are en-suite.</p>
<p>Carefully chosen handmade objects are displayed and used.  Urns, pots and tiles made by master potters and embroidered curtains and cushions done by members of an embroidery guild.  A respect for the skill of artists and craftsmen are evident.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>&#8230; is a delight and will be an experience on its own. In the dining room, the richly embossed French wallpaper is teamed with trees made by an artist who works only with wire.  The combination of these elements, as well as the little unexpected visible detail throughout the hotel, promotes surprises and a kind of quirky enchantment and delights the viewer.</p>
<p>In the spectacular dining room the menu is designed to reflect the organic bounty of the Boland and has it&#8217;s origin deep inside South Africa&#8217;s cultural roots.  A cuisine of simple but refined dishes.  Where good unpretentious food and special wine add to the  pleasures of life.</p>
<p>The Hotel has an impressive wine cellar with deliberate attention on variety and the careful selection of superb vintage wines.  The cellar pays homage to the projection of the world of wine, the region and the culture of wine.</p>
<p>Meals and snacks are also served in the courtyard with it&#8217;s umbrellas, French arbour and view of the pool.  Here tranquillity reigns.  Sit back, survey your surroundings.  Reflect on the state of things.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>&#8230;in the heart of historic Stellenbosch. This site is steeped in history.  The first owner recorded in 1704 was Alhardus Bartholomeus Coopman, who built a typical &#8220;H-layout&#8221; single storey Cape Dutch house, yet the title deed to him was only prescribed in 1713.  In 1978 Coopmanhuijs was proclaimed a National Monument.</p>
<p>The oldest known photograph of Stellenbosch (taken between 1863 and 1866) and published in <em>Stellenbosch Drie Eeue </em>(1979), is of a scene in Church Street &#8211; and shows Coopmanhuijs on the far right of the picture.</p>
<p>The current Neo-Georgian architecture of the Old House section of Coopmanhuijs came into being between 1870 and 1900.</p>
<p>Coopmanhuijs was declared a National Heritage Site on 15 September 1978.</p>
<p>The Pieterse family purchased Coopmanhuijs as an investment in 1981, when it was a private residence for female students of Stellenbosch University.</p>
<p>The students moved out in 1984 and Coopmanhuijs became the residence of André and Helena Pieterse until 2007, when a Pieterse family company started converting it into Coopmanhuijs Boutique Hotel &amp; Spa.</p>
