About
Waterford Estate is situated in the picturesque Blaauwklippen Valley, in the world-renowned Stellenbosch region. We believe in the old adage of 'less is more'. There is nothing pretentious or ostentatious about the estate, rather the visual impact is one of a seamless whole, which complements rather than detracts from the surrounding natural beauty.

Lucky you!
There are loads of superstitions and folktales about leap years. Many of us already know that a leap year is supposed to be one in which a woman can be the one to propose to her man (but, being 2024, we think this can happen any other year, too). Scottish wisdom considers being born in a leap year to be bad luck (as if the poor kids have a choice?) and call them 'leaplings', which is cute. In a small town in Italy, though, a leap year is considered good luck for whales, of all things. Don't ask us why.
Whatever your belief, we think leap years are totally cool and extra lucky. Why? Well, for one thing, today has lined up perfectly to bring you AnotherDayOnly, where all of the best deals of February are BACK, giving you the chance to bag anything you might have missed in the month. Lucky you!
