The hotel

Rambling flower beds. Rolling lawns. Ornate fountains. All the classic accoutrements of a manor house come together at Franschhoek Country House & Villas, creating space that’s charming, characterful, and calming. Of course, this isn’t just a country house, so among its beautiful rooms, cottages, and villas, you’ll also find traveller treats like al fresco swimming pools, spa treatments, and the acclaimed Monneaux Restaurant – considered one of Franshhoek’s finest dining venues. Just a bike ride from the village, and with stunning valley views, all the wonders of the winelands are just a drive away, including restaurants, museums, and wine tasting experiences.

Luxurious stay at this residence. We enjoyed the big room with the fire place. Dinner at the restaurant was great and also the breakfast options were excellent. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The complimentary shuttle to the centre is great but it was also a nice walk to get there. Thank you for having us!

This was our favourite stop on the garden route, We stayed for 2 nights in one of the cottages, Oh how beautiful this whole place is even when the weather wasnt great. The cottage was wonderful with its own lounge and two outside seating areas. The grounds were immaculate with two pools, one heated, you could see the steam rising from it. It was, however, the staff that made it perfect. Especially one of the managers, who, sadly, ive forgotten her name. The restaurant was exquisite, the food amazing, it left me wanting more. We used the wine tram and we could see one of the stops from our patio. I would highly recommend this if you are travelling this way. Read less
