Great location

Guests who stayed here in the past year loved the location.
Set on a beautiful smallholding in the heart of Franschhoek village, this airy, peaceful cottage is part of the former stables. The large lounge has stunning mountain views, with a sleeper bed for a 3rd guest. The spacious bedroom has a king size bed. Both the bedroom and lounge have sliding doors that open onto a large patio with spectacular views of the Franschhoek mountains. A ten minute stroll up the lane takes you to the wine tram, and all the best shops and restaurants

The space
Guests have commented on the peace, the amazing views and wonderful bird life in the area. Sit on the patio enjoying a cold glass of wine and watch Franschhoek's nature at it's best.

Guest access
There is a large patio, and ample safe parking.

Other things to note
There is an identical cottage next door. The two cottages can be booked together for parties of four or more who would like some privacy from each other but are travelling together. Look for our listing called Riverstone Cottage.
