|When in South Africa’s Cape Winelands, go for these farm yards. It holds cottages and private suites, seven with glass-fronted kitchens. Guests are invited in picking whatever they like from the garden for preparation in their suites kitchens. The interiors are a mix of modern furniture with antique pieces. A range of activities is possible from here, like whale watching and shark diving. Let’s hope the next Design Indaba 2012 is worth it. Hotel Babylonstoren
