Stayed for one night and this was a very good value place. Sharon was a very helpful host and the room in the back yard was fine. The breakfast was more than expected and I really recommend this place. Downside - the lack of shelves in the bathroom and a bedside light shade that blocks the light.

We stayed at the coach house for four nights around New Years. Lovely hosts, nice rooms and a great location. The "back yard" is a great place to relax. Breakfast was delicious. Great bargain too. Due to availability when we booked we had to stay at two different places. After our stay at the Coach House, we moved to a... More

Spent 2 nights here during our honeymoon in South Africa. It was absolutely scorching hot the days we were in Franschoek (38-40 C if the thermometer on the car was to be believed). We arrived after a master wine-tasting session at Fairview winery in Paarl (highly recommended), and were definitely ready for some comfort and air-con by then! The large,... More

Although we were comfortable in a garden room, the Coach House didn't have the wow factor of the other properties we stayed in. Sharon was a good host and recommended places to eat and things to do. The fridge was stocked with a bottle of wine, two bottles of beer, and two cans of coke when we arrived which were... More

Wifi worked well, it was almost like we were staying in their home ( well I guess we were) we were made so welcome! Great breakfast to... More

What a fantastic place to stay. The room was spotless and well furnished, opening on to the back garden and swimming pool. It is located only a few minutes walk from the main village which has quaint little shops and restaurants. We would also recommend the wine tour by tram which you pick up in the village.
