La Cabrière is a hidden gem and a home away from home. The rooms are beautifully comfortable and spotlessly clean. The grounds are stunning with beautiful gardens and an array of wildlife. Breakfast is fabulous with lovely choices of both continental and cooked items. Both pool areas on the property are perfect, with enough beds and privacy to enjoy the South African sun. The position of the property is perfect, a 6-7 walk down to town which has a great selection of shops and restaurants and Easy access to all the vineyards. Lisa and her team took great care of and we enjoyed another exceptional stay. We can’t wait to return.

Our stay here was truly perfect in every way. The accommodation was immaculately clean, quiet, and luxurious, yet still felt warm, comfortable, and homey — the ideal balance. Breakfast each morning was exceptional: a beautiful spread of fresh fruits, meats, cheeses, and pastries, with the added option of eggs, French toast, and other accompaniments made to order. The location was excellent — close to town, very safe, and convenient while still feeling peaceful and private. The host , Lisa - a South African, was absolutely lovely and made us feel genuinely welcomed and special throughout our stay. This was hands down one of the best places we’ve ever stayed. The two stunning pools and breathtaking views made it even more unforgettable. We would return in a heartbeat and cannot recommend it highly enough.

Wow what a great location and view from our pool view room. From our courteous welcome, tour of facilities to breakfast and departure everything was great and it’s clear a tight ship is run. The minibar is well stocked . Water is available for a fee. Breakfast is more than adequate with a choice of yogurts fruits pastries and cooked items. Although walkable, in the heat we would recommend using Uber to Franschoek. It is better value than the local taxis. Relax by the pool, enjoy the Mountain View in the evening. Enjoy a glass of wine! As a side not , although Expedia may take Amex, the guesthouse does not and you will need to use Visa or MCard

What a find, in beautiful grounds with superb mountain views! Quiet area but easy walk into Franschhoek town (15mins). Lisa the Manager was excellent as were the rest of the staff; very attentive and pleasant throughout. The two pools offer more than enough room for all the guests to chill out, and they serve an adequate free breakfast. Although no food at other times of the day, it's easy to order in and eat outside in the wonderful garden surroundings. Really enjoyable experience...thank you.

We enjoyed our stay at La Cabriere country house in Franschhoek. The staff were very friendly and the owner was very helpful and lovely as well. The property was stunning, with 2 different pools and lots of areas to sit outside. Breakfast was delicious. The room was cozy and had mostly everything we needed. Location was wonderful, very safe, only a short distance to the main town and so many amazing vineyards nearby. It felt like a private holiday for us as not many guests were there due to the recent floods in Sept (impacted us not having heating for the first night or wifi). Overall great place to stay, highly recommend!
