Franschoek is famous for its beauty but I have to say when we stayed at The Franschoek, we were tempted never to leave our room to discover it! The Franschoek is situated in the heart of the town, a few minutes from all the gorgeous wine farms which we only managed to discover on our second day after dragging ourselves... more

This is a guest-house, not a hotel. Having just departed a 5-star hotel, we realised too late that guest-houses must be rated differently.

The only thing to note... more
