Millstream
Stellenbosch Wine Route - South Africa
Email Millstream Reservations: booksa@madbookings.combooksa@madbookings.com
Millstream takes its name from the mill-race that drove the watermill
in Stellenbosch during the seventeenth century.
The stream which has lush tree-lined banks, divides the lanes of
traffic and lends a rural air to this part of town.
Visitors cannot believe that such peace and tranquility can exist
so close to the town centre.
Most amenities are within walking distance: the Van Der Stel sportsfield
is a few minutes’ walk, town centre with numerous restaurants
and shops within ten minutes’ walk and the University a similar
distance.

they wish during the day, right through to individually guided tours,
which can be conducted in a variety of languages.
For the history lover, Stellenbosch has a town-centre museum that displays
architecture and lifestyles of several eras, while the Burger house and
the Toy and Miniature museums are within minutes’ reach.
Regular walking tours can be arranged which introduce the visitor to the
