Franschhoek travel guide

Franschhoek in the Cape Winelands valley is South Africa’s culinary pride and joy, since a number of award-winning chefs have decamped here. Surrounded by wine farms, it makes a perfect daytrip from Cape Town as you can drive there in an hour. But the area has such charming places to stay and such outstanding specialities that you could happily spend a few days there. Visit stately old farms for wine tastings, shop for art, antiques or handmade chocolate in town, and have dinner by a romantic log fire. Franschhoek means “French corner”, since it was founded in the 17^th century by French Huguenots fleeing persecution in France, and many of the farms have French names. It really does remind visitors of a picturesque French village, with food and wine that compares with the best of them. On the weekend of 14^th July, the town celebrates France’s Bastille Day, with a gourmet food fair, wine tastings and a general blast.

Even during its many festivals, Franschhoek has a rare ability to retain its easygoing style. Whether your budget extends to elegant accommodation and high-end eateries, or a sweet B and B and café with great pancakes, Franschhoek is a delicious experience. Our advice: don’t try to do too much in one day. Take your time and, if you’re keen to dine at a top chef’s restaurant, book your table in advance.

Follow these route maps or weave between:

Franschhoek Wine Valley Food and Wine Route – A comprehensive tour of the best the region has to offer. Choose from food and wine pairings, varietal specific tastings, Cap Classique tastings, chocolate making, cooking classes, olive oil tastings and restaurant stops. A highlights map is available, allowing visitors to create their own itineraries.
Franschhoek Artisan Food Route – Followers of this route in and around the village will be treated to the products of skilled artisans who make cheese, olives, chocolate, bread, spreads and charcuterie with passion and knowledge.
Franschhoek Cap Classique Route – Ranging from Old World to New World thinking, the producers on this route make up one of the country’s leading Methode Cap Classique regions.

Wine farms we love:

Boschendal – A classic spot. After your tasting, settle yourself at one of the fabulous restaurants. Or have a picnic on the lawns, watching the swans, with a basket of treats that you can order in advance
L’Ormarins – Aside from tasting wine, this estate has the fantastic Franschhoek Motor Museum with over 400 vintage cars.
Backsberg – atmospheric vat cellar for tastings and rows of beautiful old trees
La Motte – Stunning garden setting, top restaurant Pierneef and wines becoming very well known
Leopard’s Leap – Family friendly vineyard with hands on cooking classes and an organic herb garden
Holden Manz – Famous for its restaurant, the Franschhoek Kitchen, this farm is also a great picnic spot, located at the top of the valley to give you awesome views
Allee Bleue – try the award winning pinotage from this elegant estate.
Tokara – on the magnificent Helshoogte Pass on the way to Stellenbosch, it has outstanding views and a fantastic Chardonnay.

Restaurants to bear in mind:

Monneaux
La Petite Ferme – Magnificent views and a kids play area, are additional to the
Pierneef at La Motte
La Grande Provence
Foliage
The Tasting Room – At Le Quartier Francais
Café des Arts – in the centre of town
The Franschhoek Kitchen at Holden Manz
