    The accommodation is in a monument building dated back to 1905. Inside is a house full of characters and history. The room we stayed at (room Sensational) had a good size. Due to the structure of the house, it has a sloped roof but this was clear in the pictures on bookings.com and it caused no inconvenience to us. The staff were extremely helpful and friendly. The accommodation has a fantastic location, we walked to the main street for dinner within 3-5 minutes, the streets were well lit at night and safe to walk to the restaurant and back. Everyday after the room is made, the staff put some sherry on the table for us to enjoy if we would like to. That is a lovely treat for us. We have searched many accommodations in the area and Centre-ville has the best price for the location and quality we get at the time of our search. Breakfast was lovely. They have the cold breakfast options to start with 3 types of bread and many types of cheese, 2 types of yoghurt with 5-6 fruit options and muesli, cornflake. Then we have the choice of hot breakfast eggs (prepare to your preference), sausage, mushroom, tomato, bacon and toasts. It was important to us to have a good breakfast before we start exploring the wine farms in the areas. Parking is very easy. Either next to the entrance of the accommodation if there is space or the accommodation also has a reserved parking spaces in a parking park for their guests just round the corner. The parking space is staffed during the day.

    Just something small but dry walls mean you can hear every little noise from the room next door

    Really charming guesthouse with friendly and welcoming staff, situated in the heart of Franschhoek. The room is clean and comfortable and the breakfast is a delicious spread!

    Literally only downside I could think of, was the small light at the AC that was on all night distrubing a bit even when the AC was turned off.

    It is a very charming place with a great personality. Staff was very friendly and welcoming helping us out with times and tricks about the local winerys and restaurants. The breakfast (fresh english breakfast) in the morning was great! The Kind size bed was wonderfully comfortable!

    We had a room with a bathtub and low ceiling, however we were informed about this when we booked the room. It would be good to get a bit more of a personal touch from the owners (we got this in other guesthouses in South Africa where we stayed).

    Perfect location in the beautiful town of Franschhoek - you can go for a walk without a car. Lovely historical building. Very good and nicely served breakfast. Good cleanliness, fresh towels.

    I had a last minute booking as my airB&B was dismal. The team made me feel so welcome and relaxed. The breakfast was delicious ( may have shared my sausage with the beautiful pooch) The amazing bath was the bonus ! Hopefully will be back in July.
