Property info

A Victorian Guesthouse in Franschhoek In the beautiful Cape Winelands of South Africa, nestled beneath majestic mountains, lies the historical village of Franschhoek. Only one hour from Cape Town and twenty minutes from both Paarl and Stellenbosch, Franschhoek is the perfect base from which to explore and enjoy the Cape region. The village has become one of the top destinations for visitors travelling to South Africa and upon your first visit you will understand why; the entire valley, not just the village itself, is Breathtaking.

Neighborhood info

After the revocation of the Edict of Nantes in France in 1685, when Protestantism was outlawed, hundreds of so-called Huguenots fled their homeland, 277 of them arriving by ship at the Cape of Good Hope. Many of them were given land by the Dutch government in a valley called Oliphantshoek (Elephant’s Corner) – so named because of the vast herds of elephants that roamed the area. Soon after they settled here, it become known as Franschhoek (French Corner). This heritage lives on today with the Huguenot monument standing proudly at the top of the village. The museum nearby chronicles the history of those brave pioneers, with each of the original Huguenot farms having its own fascinating story to tell.
