Situated in the heart of the Overberg, the heritage village of Stanford offers a peaceful escape with the charm of country living, all just 150km from Cape Town. Conveniently located between Gansbaai and the vibrant Hermanus with its stunning beaches and modern amenities, Stanford is a mere 20-minute drive from either destination.

This close-knit community takes immense pride in our Village’s natural beauty and rich history. At its heart lies the Historical Market Square, one of the last remaining in South Africa, serving as a hub for school sports, Boxing Day cricket matches, and lively country markets. Here, locals showcase their handmade goods and wines from Stanford’s renowned wine region. The village boasts an array of charming coffee shops and acclaimed restaurants, and during the festive season, its streets sparkle with enchanting Christmas lights.

Life in Stanford is enriched by an active and welcoming community. Join book clubs, card evenings, quizzes, hiking groups, gardening circles, or the popular birding club to only name a few. There’s also no shortage of opportunities to give back, with organisations like Stanford Animal Welfare, the Swop Shop, Tourism, and Rotary making a positive impact.
