E AU DE VIE F R A NSCHHOEK, CA PE W I N EL A N DS
Escape to the
Winelands Franschhoek has long been lauded the gourmet capital of the Cape with its world class vineyards and restaurants, set in the most beautifully scenic surroundings. It has a rather beguiling way of bringing out a different side of yourself whenever frequenting this picturesque French corner of the wine regions. A sense of sophistication ensues as one’s gestures become passionately emphatic, the attire becomes very Parisian and suddenly Bouillabaisse is your top dish on the weekend’s menu. The village is chock-a-block with little pockets of bougainvillea walkways and bushy lemon trees lining the lanes that lead to coffee hatches and pâtisseries, boutiques and gallery spaces. All centered around the award-winning restaurants, wine estates, fruit farms, historical landmarks, and charming residential homes that rest in the valley. It’s a place that serves an endless helping of European elegance amidst an African landscape, with an archetypal African way of slow, sultry living.

Occupying over eight hectares of wild and manicured gardens, vineyards and freshwater dams, horse paddocks and country cottage residences, at the foot of the Franschhoek Mountains, Jardin de la Ferme is a unique escape in the heart of the valley.
