3. When is a good time to visit Franschhoek? 

Franschhoek is the perfect year-round destination as each season offers its own unique charm.

The spring and summer seasons bring longer, warmer days to bask in the sun with a chilled glass of wine in hand or you could dine al fresco under the stars.

If you’re more captivated by cooler weather, autumn is a lovely time of year as the days are not as hot and the village avenues turn to crimson and orange as the old oaks lose their leaves.

If drinking red wine next to a log fire is your cup of tea (yes, it’s ours too), winter is your best bet. The surrounding mountains often receive snowfall in winter, turning Franschhoek into a winter wonderland.

4. What meal services are provided?

Breakfast is included in your stay and our lovely breakfast menu will start your day on a high note. We also have a light lunch menu available should you not want to leave the hotel.

In summer we offer a delicious picnic basket filled with local delicacies and fresh produce. It doesn’t get more romantic than that!

Franschhoek is filled with amazing restaurants and cafes, most of which are only a short stroll from our front doors. Franschhoek is considered to be the Culinary and Wine Capital of South Africa after all, so chat to our reception staff about what you feel like eating and they’ll point you in the right direction. However, if you want to stay indoors for dinner, we can arrange room service from our neighbouring restaurant, Allora.
