Step Inside Rialheim’s Home at Clairvaux Estate Robertson

Clairvaux Estate, situated in the heart of the Robertson Valley in South Africa is the home of Rialheim’s studio. An estate steeped in history, Clairvaux’s legacy spans five generations of dreamers who have been inspired by their surroundings and nature to make their dreams a reality.

A rich family history and vast influence of inspirational individuals have sculpted Clairvaux to what it is today. The homestead is located amongst the Cape Winelands and more specifically the Robertson Wine Valley renowned for its world-class wines. It is a magical place which inspires all to dream, believe and fly every single day.

In 2014 when the Rialheim name was resurrected, the team embarked on a mission to transform Clairvaux’s barns, storerooms and stables into the studios used today. The Estate pays tribute to the forefathers who laid the foundations from which new dreams have been created and continue to inspire.

Now, for the very first time, they are opening this beautiful home for a limited period allowing you to experience Rialheim like never before and to indulge in country living at its finest.
