Almost always beautiful weather

Years ago Peter left for South Africa, following the many other Europeans
who are now living in the West Cape Province. He recently built another villa
on the same wine estate, where he is currently living, and decided to put
it on a lottery so that others can get a chance to enjoy the good climate and
beautiful surroundings.

For wine lovers

The villa is built on the renowned wine estate “Diemersfontein”, and has
all the modern amenities. You can taste wine in your own backyard or in the
restaurant on the same estate. The wine estate is situated on the border
between Wellington and Paarl.

Already a successful alternative

There are only 4.999 lottery tickets available for this alternative sale,
of which approx. 85% have been registered for. The lottery tickets are also

supervised and taken care of by a notary. All further information can be
