The small town of Franschhoek stands as one of the most quaint and whimsical gems of the Western Cape Province. Aptly named the ‘French Corner,’ this marvelous little valley is home to some of the world’s most magnificent functioning vineyards. With its lush, mountainous surroundings and picturesque small-town charm, Franschhoek welcomes its visitors with all the fineries of sumptuous Cape living. La Cotte Farm remains one of the oldest estates in the area, granted to its original owner in 1694.

The home offers its guests the utmost privacy, surrounded only by panoramic views of lake, expansive sky, indigenous greenery and tremendous mountain ranges. The main house generously sleeps six, all with that quintessential welcoming and sophisticated Cape Dutch ease. The thatch roofing, gabled facades, tall French shuttered windows and the lime-washed walls all weave an aesthetic tale of farmhouse chic with a touch of rustic, pastoral whimsy.
