Life at the Explorers Club revolves around the vast open-plan kitchen, living, dining area and enclosed veranda, with doors that pull back and open out onto a huge pool and garden with mountain views. The four ensuite bedrooms (three ensuite bedrooms, one twin loft room) lead off from this central area, with a twin room tucked ingeniously into the eaves of the original building, together sleeping up to 6 adults and 4 children (and a toddler – in a camp cot). Built on the spot where the original railway ticket office stood in the centre of Franschhoek village, the Explorers Club, through its eclectic Africana décor, retains the atmosphere of the eternal traveller, perfectly captured by Jo Sinfield’s sentiment: “Somewhere inside all of us lurks an adventurous impulse, large or small. We hope you find it here. Start planning an escapade, tremble over a few precipices, and mull over an idea or two with glass in hand…all in the comfort of the Explorers Club.” ## Property amenities ### Internet - Available in the villa: WiFi ### Bedrooms - 4 bedrooms ### Bathroom - 4 bathrooms ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoke-free property ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property; consider bringing a portable detector) - Smoke detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a smoke detector on the property) ## Similar properties ![Property grounds](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/112000000/111230000/111229600/111229559/4c0ed9a8.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Central Luxury Loft with Fireplace and Jacuzzi Franschhoek - Hot tub - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-12&endDate=2025-10-13&selected=111229559&PinnedHotelID=111229559&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ## Policies ### Check-in Check-in time starts at 4:00 PM Minimum check-in age - 18 ### Check-out Check-out before 11:00 AM ### Special check-in instructions You will receive an email from the host with check-in and check-out instructions ### Pets Pets not allowed ### Children and extra beds Children are welcome ### Events No events allowed ### Smoking Smoking is not permitted ## Important information ### You need to know This property is managed by a private host (a party not acting within their trade, business or profession).
