Bohemian Daytrips: A Scenic Escape to Creation Wine Farm – Dogs, Kids & Art Welcome!

At Bohemian Guesthouse, we believe that travel should be more than just checking into a room — it should be about experiences. That’s why we launched Bohemian Daytrips: a curated guide to beautiful, inspiring day trips you can take from our guesthouse in Cape Town.

In this episode, we’re sharing one of our absolute favorite discoveries: Creation Wine Farm – an artful and family-friendly escape tucked away in the Hemel-en-Aarde Valley, just 1.5 hours from Bohemian Guesthouse.

A Day at Creation Wine Farm: Art, Nature & Gourmet Delights

As soon as we arrived, we knew we had found a gem. Set among rolling vineyards and majestic mountains, Creation is more than a wine estate — it’s an experience. What truly sets it apart is its child- and dog-friendly atmosphere, exceptional food, and the unexpected touches of modern art woven throughout the gardens.

From the get-go, the staff were welcoming, patient, and impressively professional — despite us arriving as a bit of a whirlwind with two small kids and three very excited dogs in tow! We were seated on their sunny terrace, the perfect spot to relax while soaking up the views with a glass of their award-winning wine.

What Makes Creation So Special

• 🐾 Dog-Friendly & Child-FriendlyBring the whole family! Dogs are welcome throughout the outdoor areas, and kids are kept entertained in their cozy kiddie's room.

• 🎨 A Garden Full of ArtScattered among the greenery are striking glass sculptures and modern art pieces, giving the space a whimsical and elegant charm.

• 🥂 Culinary Art on a PlateThough we only had time for à la carte dining, the food was phenomenal. Every dish was not only delicious but visually stunning — each plate like a little piece of art.

• 🌱 Vegan & Vegetarian FriendlyTheir exclusive vegan menu isn’t just an afterthought — it’s thoughtfully curated and full of flavour, texture, and creativity. A real treat for plant-based diners.

• 🍷 Wine Tasting & PairingsNext time, we’ll definitely try the 5-course tasting menu with wine pairing, which seems like the ultimate way to indulge in Creation’s full offering.

A Stroll Through the Vineyards

After our meal, we took a slow stroll around the property. The kids and dogs ran freely through the vineyards — a moment of pure joy and connection with nature that reminded us why we created Bohemian Guesthouse in the first place: to be a place where people (and pets) feel free, welcomed, and connected.

Family-friendly, dog-friendly, and full of heart — Creation Wine Farm is a perfect Bohemian Daytrip destination for guests with kids and pets.
