Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: The location and feel of the property is spectacular, it was amazing to wake up and be greated by the mountains and olive tree's. It felt super spacious and is really good value for money.
Negative: I think it just got renovated so the smell of fresh paint was not so relaxing. Also, the shelf in the bathroom above the sink is really badly placed and made washing your face and teeth very frustrating.
Summary: Stunning location and super spacious.

Positive: Great option for self-catering accommodation about 7-10 minutes from Franschhoek. Comfortable beds and tastefully appointed bedrooms, good kitchen facilities. You're on a secure farm with coded gates for access. Host, Lance, is available by phone and the check-in process is well managed. Payment for the stay is direct with Lance which we handled via PayPal without a hitch. Lance also had many recommendations for the area and that meant less time in the cottage and more on the wine farm. That's what we planned! If you plan to stay indoors and retreat for days/evenings at a time you'll have the view, and beautiful surroundings, while the cottage is basic and functional. A little research in the area will show you luxury accommodation available at a different budget, here you have comfortable accommodation and facilities at an unbeatable price. Also unbeatable, the view. You are surrounded by mountains. Birdlife and the animals from the farm are not far away.
