Gîte offers the ultimate escape: luxury suites with contemporary furnishings, a picturesque farm setting and yet, you will find yourself walking distance from town and all its culinary delights!
Nestled in the famous Franschhoek valley, just an hour’s drive from Cape Town with sweeping views of the Franschhoek Mountains, this self-catering accommodation offers the perfect breakaway.
Come and enjoy your stay in our stylish gîtes and relax in your own wood-fired hot tub while enjoying a glass of fine local wine. With breathtaking views on all sides, you can also just unwind with a good book and enjoy the murmuring sound of the mountain stream bordering all three suites.
The name Gîte (French) means a specific type of holiday accommodation. Gîtes are generally old farmworkers’ cottages or converted outbuildings and barns within proximity of the owner’s principal residence.
Interestingly, we actually referred to a converted barn on our farm as ‘The Gîte’ for years and then when we started thinking of a name for our newly built barn-style suites a family member proposed that Gîte is the perfect name.
Please note that we provide the following: tea, coffee, filter coffee (Terbodore) sugar, milk and basic spices. We also provide enough charcoal for 1 braai and 2 crates of wood for the hot tub.
