Self Catering Accommodation

There are three fully furnished, self catering cottages to choose from ...

The Cottage:
The Cottage (100 sq.m.), is attached to the manor house and offers a comfortable lounge with eating area and well-equipped kitchen. There is a T.V. in the lounge and a fireplace for those chilly Franschhoek evenings. There is one en-suite bedroom (with Queen bed), that has under-carpet heating. French doors lead from the double volume lounge onto the verandah which overlooks the vineyard and the mountains beyond. There is a small eating area outside where you can enjoy your breakfast while listening to the birds or watch the family of guinea fowl that visit us from time to time. There is a small rim flow pool further along the verandah and a barbeque area on the lawn for your exclusive use. Please note that The Cottage can only accommodate adults.

The Stables:
The Stables offers the discerning traveller the ultimate sanctuary of comfort and The converted stable (99 sq.m.), is a secluded cottage tucked away amongst our vines. It has an open plan lounge and dining area and well equipped kitchen. There is a fireplace and a T.V. to watch your favourite sport whilst sipping local wines. There are 2 en-suite bedrooms, one with queen bed and the other has twin beds and both bathrooms have tub and shower. All this opens onto the patio with private plunge pool, timber deck and a barbeque area for those summer days when you want to relax and enjoy the tranquility of the farm. There are magnificent views of the surrounding mountains which are particularly beautiful as they catch the last rays of the sun.

Downstairs is an en-suite bedroom with queen bed plus a single bed. Upstairs on the mezzanine floor are twin bed with bathroom. Both bedrooms have under-carpet heating for those cold winter nights.
