    Our stay was an absolute delight. The breakfast was a highlight, offering a delicious start to our days. The grounds were simply stunning, boasting picturesque views that made every moment feel like a scene from a postcard. The presence of security personnel added an extra layer of comfort, ensuring a safe and tranquil environment. Plus, the proximity to Franschhoek made exploring the area convenient and enjoyable. Overall, a memorable and highly recommended experience.

    It’s not far from town but it’s difficult to get an Uber to town if you are having dinner out. I think it would be nice if guests were informed of taxi issues just to allow more time/planning.

    Beautiful property, our rooms were very big and overlooked the lavender fields. I personally don’t think the pictures do it justice. The breakfast room has been refurbished and looks so much nicer than on their website in reality. Overall really beautiful

    I booked this as a gift to my in-laws. They came back with nothing but GREAT things to say. They absolutely loved the accommodation, pool area and the scenery. The booking manager was very helpful in accommodating my request of having a bottle of cold bubbles on arrival which made it that much better! I will definitely visit myself in the near future!

    If you want to find something - the hair in the soup - it was a bit the breakfast. But that is really complaining on a very high level.

    The room, the design was far above expected. Super location, nice to reach to Franschhoek and to have a nice break!

    The bed was a little firm for us.

    The location of lavender farm is exceptional with views of the valley and mountains from the room. The area felt safe as the property is accessed through a manned gate. Breakfast area was bright and welcoming and hot breakfasts were prepared to order. The rooms were very spacious and tastefully appointed with personal touches. The staff were friendly and attentive. We didn't want to leave!

    the room had a door connection with the another room which made it a bit noisy. Breakfast was OK but would have expected a bit better quality standard and service from the staff.

    Spacious and comfortable room with needed equipments. The pool was lovely and very relaxing. The hotel is just outside and easily accessible by car.

    This was my and my husband's first night away since having kids (first kids free night in almost 4 years) and I was really looking forward to sleeping in, but woke up at 5am from our "neighbours" talking in the cottage next to ours. It was really not very well sound insulated since we could hear almost every word they were saying.

    beautiful room, friendly staff and perfect location

    The towels in the bathroom needs replacing as they were frayed. The breakfast was basic.

    The guest house is a beautiful oasis flanked by rows of lavender. The rooms are spacious and clean with your own private patio facing the lavender fields. The guest house is located 5 minutes (by car) outside of the main Franschhoek strip but within close proximity to everything, though not walkable. The entire property is beautifully tended to.
