Located a short walk away from the heart of the charming village of Franschhoek and set against the backdrop of the bucolic Middagkrans Mountains, Auberge Daniella is a quaint haven of comfort and authentic French country charm. This elegantly restored Victorian homestead comprises three luxurious apartments, each individually styled, spacious and equipped with all the comforts of a home away from home.A sunny veranda and deck, with breathtaking views of the majestic vineyard-clad Drakenstein Mountains, spill out of the homestead and provide an idyllic space to simply relax, sip on a sundowner or enjoy an al fresco meal. An azure splash pool, set in the tranquil enclosed garden, offers a welcome respite after a long day exploring the multitude of shops, vineyards, historic sites and restaurants that adorn one of South Africa’s most desirable destinations. Ideal for a romantic weekend getaway, business trip or languid holiday. We offer Bed &Breakfast and Self-catering. Should you choose the Breakfast Option a Continental and Cooked breakfast will be served daily at the Guesthouse. We follow Covid Protocols.

In Franschhoek we are spoilt for choice with the wide selection of vineyards, tasting rooms and restaurants to choose from. Franschhoek in my opinion has some very good Sauvignon Blanc and Chardonnay. Franschhoek is the Capital of Food and Wine in SA, you have to experience it, to believe it. The Highlight of the weekend is Sunday evenings ending the weekend off with a glass of wine or beer, good company, relaxing atmosphere, live music, and just having fun at the Station Pub, right across the road from Auberge Daniella, this is my favourite place to go in Franschhoek for some live entertainment.
