A wonderful home from home.

Pros: What a lovely find. The hosts made us feel so comfortable. We had our own private outside seating area in a lovely garden. Breakfast outside by the pool with the other guests was really enjoyable.

Can only say great things! Welcoming, homey and delicious breakfast !

Pros: This accomodation was an absolute highlight of our trip. Stylishly decorated, wonderfully kept up and most importantly the lovely couple that runs it. The constantly fresh and different breakfast served in their garden tops the whole thing off. Can only recommend!

Charming, quiet, hidden away and set in a beautiful and very tasteful property.

Pros: We loved everything! The room in the cottage out the back was charming and quiet and our hosts were helpful and entertaining. The street felt quiet and safe and not far from restaurants and the main street. Oh my, Erna's breakfast was wonderful! Franschoek is quite an oasis of sophistication.

Cons: Nothing I can think of.

Loved Cottage on 55!

Pros: Beautiful and cosy. We loved our stay! Hosts were fantastic and it was lovely to meet them. Breakfast was a highlight as we're the kitty cats. The walk into town was short and it was very accessible. Thank you!

Pros: The setting was magical, we had a beautiful peaceful space to retreat and rest. The hosts went out of their way to make us comfortable and welcome. The breakfasts were special, the coffee delicious. The decor is top notch. Lovely pool (although too cold when we were there). Would recommend highly.
