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!

Perfect location - stunning views
The pictures don't do this place justice. The views are incredible and very inch of this place was stunning. There are all these little tables around the grounds people can and enjoy a bottle of wine. It's really close to town which made our time in Franschhoek even better to be able to easily walk there. The people who run the place are so kind and helpful and went above and beyond to meet our needs.

Fantastic views, good location and nice views
Located a 10-min walk to the centre of Franschhoek, with fantastic views and well maintained gardens, Two small pools, which are more than necessary with plenty of sunbeds. Bedrooms vary, we stayed in the Garden view room, which was pleasantly decorated but the bathroom only had the one basin and was two small for two people. Sadly the breakfast was a little disappointing, service was good but options varied very little each morning and not a great choice on the buffet. Staff were very accommodating when we asked for a late checkout, but don't hang any washing out on your terrace as you will be 'told off!'

Thank you for your review. We have taken note of your comments regarding the bathroom and the breakfast options. We do not mind guests drying swim suits etc on our terraces, but erecting a washing line across a terrace at La Cabriere is unacceptable. As I mentioned we would have gladly hung your washing on our washing line in our courtyard at no extra cost. Kind regards Lisa

Beautiful place, we want to return!
This is a stunning place to stay. You could just sit and stare all day. Choice of pools, very comfortable room. We stayed two nights and a third would have been the icing on the cake. A 15 min stroll into town. We got ubers easily for dinners. We plan to return (like a lot of the other guests we met).

Close but not too close
Great location close to the town center but a bit away such that you feel a part of the country side. Lucy and Lisa were very helpful and friendly. It was approximately 10 mins walk to the center of the town. At night it is recommended to hire a taxi which is always approximately 10 mins away. Any restaurant will call after your meal.

Lovely Accommodation with Fantastic Views
We were given a warm welcome on arrival even though we were a bit early and only had to wait 5mins before we could settle in. The room although not large had ample storage and a lovely patio overlooking the gardens and mountains beyond. The bathroom was modern and clean with a large shower. My only grumble and this is a personal choice one is that the bed was very firm and the pillows too, but this is being very picky. All the staff were lovely and always gave us a warm welcome at breakfast which was served outside if the weather allowed. The food was fresh and tasty along with a hot breakfast on offer too, also available in the afternoon was tea, coffee and cake which was a nice surprise.

Extremt vänlig, hjälpsam och trevlig personal. Tämligen exklusivt och välskött mindre hotell. De har fantastiska vyer och en enastående trädgård. Varje rum har egen uteplats utöver de gemensamma ytorna. Det finns två pooler där den ena är uppvärmd. Inredningen något daterad men rent och fräscht. Sköna sängar. Ca 15 min promenad till byn. Efter mörkret åker man uber eller taxi. Jag kan varmt rekommendera detta boende!
