Do not stay here if you are expecting a five or even a four star hotel.
Key negatives:
- We advised it was our honeymoon and no arrangements / special occasion were arranged even after reminding the manager
- No onsite gym - this is outsourced
- No onsite SPA - this is outsourced
- Carpeted shared areas which was smelly
- Dated decor throughout including bathroom
- Beds were queen size and rock solid with uncomfortable pillows
- Tram line over looks the pool which goes by throughout the day every 15mins or so
- Roadside noise
- One lady was very helpful and nothing was to big an ask - however the rest of the reception staff were terrible.
Key benefits
- Breakfast was good with a wide range of options
- Heated pool and water available
- Shuttle into town is a big benefit although taxis are cheap

A truly stunning property, it’s a calm and beautiful place to stay in Franschhoek. The staff are knowledgeable, very friendly, and helpful. The rooms are spacious, cozy, and beautifully decorated. Breakfast is delicious, and the complimentary shuttle service makes it easy to get around.

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.

We stayed for one night and surely should have stayed longer. We had one of the cottages which was superb.it was on 2 levels and was pure comfort, spacious, well equipped, top class bed line and all set in an active garden. The management and staff were warm, welcoming and helpful. Everyone had smile! Breakfast was very good with interesting options cooked to order, eggs Benedict, smoked salmon omelette. Dinner was good value

We had a great stay here in a large Villa Suite with a sitting area, large bedroom and huge bathroom. There are two pools, one heated and one not and we used both depending on how hot the weather was. The complimentary shuttle into town was brilliant and a simple WhatsApp message secured a fast pickup after dinner. The staff were very friendly and the restaurant manager was always available for a chat or to provide more tips and advice on where to go and where to eat. We will definewtly return.
