“A small slice of luxury to have as a base in the Franschhoek area.”
Central location for visiting the Franschhoek area especially if you have your own transport (although the hotel provides a complimentary minibus to visit local vineyards and other sites). Room was enormous and very comfortable. The main restaurant was being refurbished but the cellar made an atmospheric substitute with very good food. Staff were very helpful in suggesting places to visit. The grounds are quite small but beautifully laid out with pathways and water features.

“Franschhoek Country House & Villas delivered spotless, well-equipped villas—sadly with the soul of an American golf”
Franschhoek Country House & Villas delivered spotless, well-equipped villas—sadly with the soul of an American golf resort. We endured a mandatory tour of the resort we didn’t want, yet no one mentioned the master light switch, so after dinner we enjoyed a torchlit treasure hunt just to find the lights. At £500 a night, I expected magic, not Pringles surveillance—when checking out, I’d overlooked one minibar item and staff chased me like I’d nicked the Crown Jewels. Nearby stays offer charm, views, and even free champagne. Adequate, but I wouldn’t return unless I absolutely had to.

“One of Franschhoek’s gems”
Lush property with amazing suites. We were pleasantly surprised to find a 2 storey suite with beautiful views of the Boland area and the mountains. The room had complimentary water and any additional were just a phone call away. We have dinner at the restaurant which was exceptional. I would recommend the Lamb Shoulder. The staff were very accommodating and very friendly. Special thanks to Tasha and Lizette

“A good location for visiting Franschhoek and the surrounding vineyards. Very family friendly.”
Beautiful hotel with friendly staff and excellent food. It’s laid out in small blocks on beautiful gardens. Very quaint. We had breakfast, lunch and dinner during the stay and the food was fab. Lovely pool area, two pools one of which is heated. Located outside of town but a complimentary shuttle bus was provided.

“It was the perfect location for visiting vineyards and the hotel is beautiful”
Thew entire experience was excellent. The staff were friendly and could not do enough for you. Breakfast was great and the Spa treatments were personalised and better than expected. The room was lovely and surpassed expectations It is located a short walk to the village but they will drive you there (and back) when needed which is a short 2 minute trip. We went for the wine tram which is even closer. Used the restaurant one evening and food was delicious.

“Overall a good experience but would point out that most of the gueste seemed on the mature side ( including myself )”
The hotel gardens were beautiful but rooms are a little dated and overpriced compared to other accommodation in the area . The pool area was excellent with plenty of towels and sunbeds
