Hi, I’m Cath – a warm, friendly soul with a deep love for the simple, meaningful things in life. I’m a proud mom, passionate about gardening, and happiest when surrounded by my family or walking through blooming flower beds with a cup of coffee in hand. Life to me is about creating beauty, sharing kindness, and savoring the moments that matter. I help manage Highgate Wine Estate, a beautiful and much-loved destination nestled in the Midlands, and I’m proud to be part of a team that brings joy to guests from near and far. Hospitality runs in my blood – whether it's recommending a hidden local gem, preparing something special for a celebration, or making sure your stay is as smooth and relaxing as possible, I'm here to help when needed. I deeply respect privacy and believe everyone deserves their own peaceful space. While I’ll always be available should you need anything. If you're celebrating something special – like a birthday, anniversary, or romantic weekend away – let me know in advance, and I’ll gladly help add a magical touch to your stay.
Welcome to the heart of the KwaZulu-Natal Midlands, where farm charm meets fine food and wine. Located on Highgate Farm, your stay offers direct access to some incredible experiences just a short stroll or drive away. Within the estate, you'll find The Restaurant at Highgate, serving delicious seasonal fare in a beautifully relaxed setting. Just next door is the Tasting Room and Wine Cellar, where you can enjoy a guided tasting of our estate wines or book a pre-arranged picnic basket to savour with a view of the Dargle Valley and surrounding mountains. The restaurant is open on Friday evenings, and we’d be happy to recommend wonderful local spots for your other nights out. While our space doesn’t offer self-catering facilities, we encourage guests to enjoy the incredible eateries in the area—and you’ll be spoiled for choice! Just a short drive away, you’ll discover the fun and flavour of Piggly Wiggly. Enjoy the best coffee in the Midlands, try ceramic painting, chocolate dipping, or wander through quirky shops and artisanal food stalls. This is a place to unwind, explore, and treat yourself—whether that’s over a glass of wine, a picnic on the lawn, or a day filled with Midland
