Company information

HI, I'm Robyn, your host in Franschhoek. I am a local "Franschhoeker" and have lived here for 15 years. I absolutely love my village and can't imagine living anywhere else. Every morning I get to wake up to these stunning mountains and clean crisp air. There is so much to do and explore in our area and I'd love to tell you more about it when you check in. Thank you so much for staying at one of my properties. I look forward to meeting you.

Property information

This charming cottage in a small secure housing estate in central Franschhoek is just the place for your week-end getaway or extended time in the wine valley and is in easy walking distance of the main road. An entertainment area with a built in braai, outdoor table and chairs and sun loungers are just the thing for relaxing and enjoying the stunning views of the Franschhoek mountains. The house has complimentary Wifi and DsTv.  Airconditioning keeps you cool all summer long.

Neighbourhood information

Franschhoek is a stunning little village where everything is within walking distance and near-by. It's beautiful and picturesque, surrounded by 3 mountain ranges. The valley has its own unique micro-climate and we can get all seasons in one day! The village is safe and quiet and the locals are very welcoming to our visitors. Walk around, explore, hang out where the locals are and have a great holiday with us. All parking in the village is free! In the main road, at the big church in the main road and also in the side streets. Just make sure you park only in the direction you are travelling. Do not cross the road to park on the other side facing oncoming traffic. It is safe to walk around freely during the day but we do not encourage you to walk home at night, just to be sure. Do not leave any valuables in your car and don't leave your doors open or unlocked at night or when you are not there. Just common sense stuff.
