A beautiful guest house a stones throw from the main strip in Franschhoek. The ladies couldn’t be more welcoming, and the breakfast the next day was excellent with both hot and cold options. Would highly recommend.

We had an amazing stay at Ashbourne Guest House! Courtney and Cindy greeted us with a glass of wine and made us feel at home right away. The room was very spacious and clean. The fridge was stocked with many different choices and there were snacks available in the room too (both for purchase). Breakfast in the morning is freshly made baked goods, fruits, meats, cheeses and a full hot menu to choose from (including dim sum of all things!). The B&B is walking distance to both the main street and the wine tram. It’s safe at night and load shedding wasn’t an issue as they have generators. We stayed in the poolside room and would recommend anyone stay there. It’s a very peaceful and quiet B&B.

A perfect retreat
We had a fantastic stay at this gorgeous boutique hotel right in Franschhoek. The staff was so lovely and friendly, helped with reservations and recommendations for the area. The laid out breakfast was fantastic too. Comfy and cosy beds - we could have stayed in there nice and warm for ages!

The suite was very comfortable with a good size bedroom and nice sitting room. Breakfast was very good with a variety of food options. The location is on a quiet street but still very close to the main street in town. The staff was very helpful and the owner present on site. He was able to give us advice on a nice wine farm walking tour and suggestions for travel to our next stop. We indefinitely will stay here again on our next trip to Franschhoek.

Stunning guest house with amazing service
Amazing place to stay, rooms are beautifully decorated with art and furniture. The personal level of service was exceptional, this was our favourite place to stay on our 2 week trip in SA. The guest house is perfectly located a brief 5 min walk from the town, which has lots of lovely independent restaurants and shops. We have already recommended to friends and family, and will definitely be back!

Absolute gem of a place
This is a gem of a place. Very close to centre. The rooms are simply stunning. Most comfortable bed so far on our trip. The breakfasts served on the Terrace are amazing. Tim and his wife couldnt be more welcoming. A lazy afternoon round the pool was greatly appreciated and we were brought complimentary glass of wine. Nice touch.
