The Lavender Farm was so fantastic! The only place in our entire month in South Africa with heat and the bed was lined with a heated blanket! Speaking of the bed...it was super comfortable. The staff was so very welcoming. The breakfast good. The view from our room of the lavender field was so beautiful. We visited in July and were so surprised to see it in bloom!

Nice place in FH. Sadly only

Lavender Farm was only nice. The room was not as clean as we would have expected. The floor in the bathroom and shower were extremely slippery. The water in the room were two tiny bottles which if you used them, you were charged. Thought that would at least have a bottle of water (larger) as part of the base price.

WEEKEND AWAY

My husband and I needed a breakaway and Lavender Farm was the answer. Nothing was too much trouble. From the time of check in to the time of check out everything was amazing. The staff go more than the extra mile for their guests. We will definately return for another awesome weekend.

Lovely views of the mountains

We stayed in the honey moon cottage. Very spacious with a fire place and a lovely varanda overlooking the lavender field. Breakfast was good and a la carte due to the Covid 19 rules. We did not use the pool. The location is very near town but you will need transport to get into town. We recommend this guest house

a beautiful hotel in a beautiful resort town

A traditional South African small hotel, with separate cottages. Located is a spectacular setting. The pool is small, but very well maintained, with comfortable pool-side chaises. About a mile from Franschhoek...you will need a car. We highly recommend.

mysig gård som har det lilla extra.

Väldigt mysigt ställe med fantastiska rum. Jättefin poolområde även om poolen var aningen snasig men det verkar alla ställen ha problem med i Sydafrika. Frukosten var komplett med olika alternativ även om den skulle kunna bli aningen bättre. Uber funkade även härifrån så inga problem att ta sig dit man ville äta. Ett ställe vi gärna kommer tillbaka till

Herfra ønsker du å oppleve Franschhoek!

Vi ble veldig godt mottatt, utrolig vennlig og sjenerøs resepsjonist. Rommet var delikat, stort og med super sitteplass utendørs, hagen meget fint anlagt med små sitteplasser der man sitte for seg selv og nyte utsikten. Beliggenheten ifht Franschhoek vindistrikt og by er super, enkelt å komme ned til byen. Vi fikk god hjelp og anbefalinger av manager og hans kone til noen av de mest fantastiske restauranter og vingårder. Dette stedet vil vi absolutt anbefale og vi ønsker selv å besøke stedet igjen

I’m so pleased I chose this lovely & charming farm to spend my last days in Capetown. Location is tucked in a quiet street yet only a 6 minute drive to the main street where the shops & restaurants are. We had a huge beautiful room that opened to a terrace complete with patio chairs where you can absorb the view of the surrounding mountains. The room was tastefully designed & spacious with a high ceiling. The garden was delightfully landscaped with various exotic flowers. The lavander farm remained fragrant even if the flowers were just harvested. The pool was truly inviting but we had limited time. Breakfast was perfectly set with a variety of menu options other than the usual breads & meats. Staff who served during breakfast were friendly and accommodating. Frauke, the lady who managed the front desk was quick to answer my emails even before we arrived. The only concern I had was in the afternoons, there was no one at the front desk to ask information. We were checked in by a pleasant helpful young man, Terence but he could not provide some of the information I needed. I wanted to have spa treatment but for some reason booking was difficult & there was no one to ask for assistance. Upon checkout, I found out all the answers for the next visit. I would definitely stay here again. It was the perfect setting for me & my husband to celebrate our anniversary end our visit to South Africa.

Beautiful setting and gorgeous rooms. The chocolates and suggested activities for the day left on our bed was a lovely extra touch. Breakfast cooked to order overlooking the farm and the valley beyond it was the perfect way to start the day. Only slight drawback was location. It’s a beautiful walk into Franschhoek passing a number of excellent wine farms but not advisable in the dark so you’ll need an Uber to get back.

Lovely in every way. Room Was spacious, well decorated, and clean. The entire property was gorgeous, well maintained, and nicely decorated. Breakfast staff was attentive, friendly, and the breakfast was adequate- hot breakfast made to order and cold breakfast was with selection you would eat and not too many unne extras. Staff is sincere. Watched Don do a very kind thing that warmed my heart and endeared me to him- our Uber driver hit a post. I knew that the driver panicked In case of extra expense. There is a very wide disparity of class in Franscchoek. Don was called, he looked and kindly told the guy it’s ok. Yes the accommodations were beautiful and everything was perfectly adequate, but also consider patronizing owners who are downright good people.
