Franschhoek · Western Cape · Since 1694
A place apart,
above the valley
Private cottages set across 16 hectares of working vineyard — ten minutes’ walk from Franschhoek village.
Welcome
A historic wine farm where stillness is the luxury
Nestled on the slope of the Middagkrans mountain, each of our seven cottages has its own private garden, outlook and character. Not a hotel — a home, with mountain air, open fires and the quietest mornings you’ll find anywhere in the Cape.

“Woke to mist in the mountains and birdsong. It felt like the whole valley was ours. We’ve already booked again for winter.”
