you thought you needed a holiday. turns out you needed three days without a to-do list, a fire that takes ten minutes to light and a hot tub that has nowhere to be either.
untether has a way of giving you what you actually need rather than what you thought you came for. link in bio.

the olive trees on the farm are old. like, properly old. the kind that have been here long enough to have their own character, their own shapes, their own particular way of catching the winter light.

they're the reason the farm is called Olive View.

some things get better with time. this place is definitely one of them.

people ask us what "off-grid" actually means at untether. it's something we thought very hard about - here's our answer:

the pods run entirely on solar power - lighting, plug points, the aircon. the geyser and stove run on gas. between the two, the pods are fully self-sufficient without drawing from the municipal grid.

in winter, we encourage guests to use the indoor fireplace for heating, not because the aircon isn't there, but because an open fire in a private pod in the Winelands is a significantly better experience than pressing a button on a remote.

the rest of it (the wood-fired hot tubs, the pizza ovens and braais & the sauna at Hemingway) runs on firewood. which means most of what powers your stay at untether comes from the sun, the earth and a well-stacked pile of wood.

it's a place that was built with intention. we hope you feel that when you're here.

ever heard of contrast therapy?

it’s when you alternate between hot and cold conditions - like a sauna and a cold plunge. and with our new sauna at Hemingway, you can give it a try right here on the farm.

enjoy some time heating up in the sauna and then head to the (cold) hot tub for an icy dip. alternating this a few times does all sorts of good things for your body (and your mind!). contrast therapy is said to improve circulation, reduce inflammation and accelerate muscle recovery. plus it feels amazing.

with Spring on the way (we can't believe it either), August is the beginning of the end of winter on the farm. and it's the last month of our 20% weeknight offer.

an hour from Cape Town. six private pods, each with four fires. completely off-grid on a farm in Wellington.

the offer ends when August does. the link's in the bio.

red wine in winter? you had us at wine.

now located in Stellbosch, Snow Mountain was originally established right here in Wellington.

they honour the winemaking process through traditional methods and natural fermentations and honestly, you can tell.

their Syrah carries layers of black fruit, dark cherries and a hint of spicy pepper on the finish. it’s the perfect red for a wintery weekend on the farm.

there's a specific kind of magic that happens after it rains in the Winelands. the earthy scent of fynbos and wet soil are so grounding. the air has a chill to it that makes you walk faster, breathe deeper, notice more.

the trails around untether after a winter storm are something else entirely. get out there while it still smells like rain.

"our stay at untether on Olive View was nothing short of exceptional. from the moment we arrived, we were welcomed into one of the most beautiful and thoughtfully designed spaces we’ve ever experienced. the atmosphere is private, peaceful, and perfectly curated for relaxation.

what truly stood out was the sense of seclusion – it feels like your own little world away from everything, making it ideal for couples looking to reconnect and unwind. every detail of the space adds to the experience, from the stylish finishes to the calming ambience.

it’s the kind of place where time slows down, and you can genuinely enjoy meaningful moments with your loved one without distractions. we left feeling refreshed, reconnected, and already planning our return."

this is what keeps us going. if you've stayed at untether and want to share your experience, please tag us, we love seeing the farm through your eyes.

weeknight stays are still 20% off until the end of August. link in bio.
