About the property

We are located in the heart of Franschhoek on a quiet avenue, just a few minutes walk from Le Quarter Français and the lovely main street lined with boutiques, galleries, and restaurants.

Owner Michaela Julian has transformed this former guest house into an eco-friendly, elegant boutique hotel utilising her extensive international expertise, giving back the warmth and sense of a family home balanced with modest elegance and comfort.

Michaela, a Co-Founder of the Franschhoek Hospitality Academy, and her highly educated and professional team offer their local expert recommendations on where to eat, what to do, an exclusive wine tasting, and insider tourist ideas.

Each room is named after a local grape variety and has crisp linen, a mini bar with hot and cold beverages, and Charlotte Rhys products.

Enjoy a delectable a' la carte breakfast overlooking the manicured garden and swimming pool, or share your experiences with other guests during the complementary sundowner wine tasting showcasing wines from our partner vineyard Haut Espoir, which produces unique handcrafted wines that are in harmony with nature.

Discover Franschhoek

Photos, information and travel guides for your stay.

Franschhoek is a small town in the Western Cape Province and one of the oldest towns in South Africa. It was formerly known as Oliphants hoek. It is situated about 75 kilometres (47 mi) from Cape Town, a 45-minute drive away. The whole area, including townships such as Groendal and suburbs such as Wemmershoek, has a population of slightly over 20,000 people while the town proper, known as Hugenote, has a population of around 1,000. Since 2000, it has been incorporated into Stellenbosch Municipality.

As WE explore this beautiful locality, YOU will be transported to a place where time seems to stand still and nature is at its most breathtaking. Franschhoek's name means 'French Corner', and it's easy to see why. The town is steeped in French Huguenot heritage, with charming Cape Dutch architecture and vineyards stretching as far as the eye can see.

The main street is lined with artisanal shops, galleries, and cafes, making it the perfect place to meander and soak up the relaxed atmosphere. As WE wander through the town, YOU will discover a treasure trove of unique finds, from handmade jewelry and ceramics to locally produced cheeses and chocolates.
