What a gem! Fabulous location in the “country” yet walking distance to town. Exception staff and I mean EXCEPTIONAL! Huge spacious well appointed accommodations. Loved the private driver service. Wonderful restaurant and an amazing full breakfast. Some of the furnishings are ready for an update but overall an authentic, idyllic home away from home. (* note: the bikes need servicing). We LOVED our stay and miss Bonita a her team already.

Best place to stay in Franschoek

We had a two story flat!! With excellent Internet connection, even during a big thunderstorm. Beautiful bathroom, nice mini bar selection so we could have a drink and watch the wine train go by in the rain that day. Breakfast was delicious and fresh.

The perfect place for a luxurious and lovely stay

Magnificent property and grounds! Lovely garden and pool. We really enjoyed our short stay here - relaxing, luxurious, inviting - and would have enjoyed staying much longer. Very convenient and great staff. Highly recommended.

Amazing hotel in stunning grounds!

Stunning grounds!!! Lovely mountain views from the pools. Beautiful big room with four-poster bed, and a large bathroom with lavender toiletries. Excellent service. The only thing I think needs to be addressed is the breakfast. On our first morning, it was full to the brim with delicious things – but on the second morning, there was about 30% the amount of things as the previous day, including leftover pastries and cheeses which didn’t look good. Would also have loved to be helped with our many bags at departure time. But all in all, this was an incredible stay.

Beautiful setting but the rooms are dates for the 5 star rating and price. Great breakfast though and (I can imagine) a good spot for families or groups visiting the winelands.
