Boschendal

Discover the good life when you stay in one of Boschendal’s luxury farm properties. The beauty of choosing a cottage on one of the oldest wine farms, is you can relax in the Franschhoek vineyards with one of their signature picnic baskets and bottle of chenin blanc made on the estate.

Stylish simplicity is what you can expect when you stay on this working homestead. The collection of rustic cottages is perfect for couples, families, or a group of friends.  Choose from the historic Sir Herbert Baker-designed cottage 1685 which sleeps 10, to the beautifully restored cottages, known as The Retreat, in the Orchards or six-bedroom villa at the foot of Simonsberg Mountain.

The Werf Garden Suites are ideally located adjacent to the werf area of the wine farm and is the perfect option for two guests. The three-bedroom Trout Cottage is ideal for a family and has a cosy living room and dining space. 

Located just over 60 kilometres from Cape Town, Boschendal offers a real taste of authentic farm living. On the doorstep of every cottage are cellar tours and ubiquitous wine tasting opportunities. Experienced guides will lead you on walking tours and hikes which will take you to beautiful dams, where you can swim. World-class mountain bike trails are also fun for all the family. Youngsters from five to 14 will have the chance to enjoy fun farm events under the watchful eye of the Tree House team.
