Lovely place to stay.
Beautiful rooms, delicious breakfast and great location.
Very warm Welcome anf beautiful room. Very clean and well equipped. For example a lot of European sockets, a French Press and Fridge. Breakfast was delicous with granola and Greek Yoghurt and a menu from which to order a variety of freshly prepared items like avocado toast, omelets or bacon and egg toast. Safe neighbourhood and the main Street of Franschhoek with many great shops and restaurants just a two minute walk away. Will definitely return.
Elsje was the most lovely person, she is so friendly and welcoming. She had great tips about what to do. Unfortunately my sister and I got sick but she was so kind and helpful. We were sad to leave and wished we could have stayed longer. The maison is beautiful, great pool, very good breakfast and the elderly chicken adorable! Highly recommend this place!
This was a fantastic find. Beautiful little guest house in the middle of town with the most welcoming of hosts and a gorgeous room. Absolute recommendation for anyone staying in franshoek
Lovely property with courteous, attentive and friendly staff. Our room was spacious and well appointed with a lovely terrace for morning coffee and relaxing afternoons. Breakfast was delicious with make to order hot items and self serve juices, fruits, yogurts and cereals. Fabulous coffee machine with a multitude of options from espresso & americano to lattes and cappuccinos. Will certainly come back if visiting Capetown again. Thanks for a wonderful holiday!
We stayed for one night to do a wine tasting/lunch at boschendal. Very warm welcome, comfortable room and a great breakfast. There is a pool onsite also with a nice garden area. Recommend! Franschoek was lovely with a lot of restaraunts, bars, cafes and shops.
Have been coming here for a number of years. It never fails to excel in all aspects.

Fin beliggenhet, koselig innredet, deilig frokost og veldig hyggelig vertskap. Det som trekker litt ned er at det nok er en stund siden det ble pusset opp bl.a gammelt teppe på gulvet. Totalt sett var vi godt fornøyd.
