Hairdryer & shaving plug-points

DELUXE The 3 ‘Deluxe’ rooms are located in the detached poolside cottage, which is approximately 50 metres from the main house. This cottage is also where breakfast is served (on the main terrace in the Summer, or in the dining room on chillier mornings). These air-conditioned rooms, with their queen-sized beds, are the most luxurious, as they each have a private terrace from which to enjoy the outstanding views, the pool and gardens. Also unique to these rooms are the open fireplaces, always stocked with firewood for those cosy winter evenings in Franschhoek.

SUPERIOR The 2 ‘Superior’ rooms are attached to the main house with their own separate entrances. These air-conditioned rooms have beautiful views of the mountains, as well as the manicured lawns & gardens to the front of the property. There is a small terrace that these rooms share - an ideal spot from which to watch the sun set whilst sipping on a glass of wine. These 2 rooms differ slightly from one another; one of them has a queen-sized bed, whilst the other has the option of being made up as a king- sized bed OR as twin beds.

STANDARD The Standard room is the largest room, with the largest bathroom, and separate kitchen area. (Although it is not a self-catering room). This room is also attached to the main house with its own separate entrance. There is no view from the room itself. Due to the fact it is spacious and more private, this room is ideal for families with young children. This room can be made up with a king-sized bed or with twin beds, and is large enough for the queen-sized blow-up mattress and/ or the cot (available on request).
