64 guests' feedbackA lovely cottage, beautifully decorated, very comfy bed and within easy walking distance from the town. Marcelle was a great host; we had everything we needed for our overnight stay. Will definitely be staying there again!
Great stay! Would recommend it and stay here again myself. Perfect for one person or a couple. Beautiful, neat, everything you need, safe, friendly hostess.
We had a lovely stay, the cottage is situated in a quiet and safe area and right next to a small lake. Perfectly located!
Serene, clean, safe, breathtaking mountain view. The quality of the bed & bedding is luxurious. Had a very comfortable sleep. Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful little apartment with everything you may need! Will most definitely be back!
It was a wonderful experience staying here. Attention to detail - out of this world. Would definitely recommend!
Will definitely recommend. Friendly owners, well located and well equipped. Had a great stay!
Comfortable, beautiful, clean, great standard.
Easy walk to central town. Charming and spacious apartment with extra care taken by the hostess to make our stay comfortable. She's thought of everything.
Lovely stay at Marcelle's. Value for money. Very well equipped room, neat and clean.
Beautiful apartment with nice furniture and bedding, lovely bathroom and shower, well-equipped kitchenette and even Lindt chocolates! Friendly and helpful hostess.
Excellent place. Clean, tidy and everything we needed.
Very peaceful stay. Our host was very helpful.
Enjoyable stay in a wintery Franschhoek. The place is beautiful with a big cosy bed!
We had a wonderful stay. The car sleeps in the street, but Franschoek is a safe town. Beautiful view from our room with nice coffee and biscuit treat. Bathroom is great.
Our stay was very pleasant. The room and bathroom are clean and nicely furnished and everything works. It is in a quiet neighborhood and very suitable for a one or two night stay. However, it is unfortunate that guests have to park their vehicles on the street.
Very nice, would highly recommend Q!
Very neat and beautifully furnished. Good location.
Modern accommodation with stylish furnishings. Great mattress - slept soundly.
Check in and check out was seamless. Beautiful view of the mountains, comfortable bed, nice white linen, a modern bath and very lovely shower. Delicious coffee and biscuits.
Excellent value for money and very well located.
Marcelle is an excellent hostess and the lovely quality coffee with rusks as well as the surprise chocolate at the bed made for a special stay. Beautiful and modern as well as very safe. We would highly recommend this accommodation.
What you see in the photos is exactly what you get. A lovely, comfortable, space which is well-situated with a view of the mountains. This unit cannot be beaten for value for money. The rusks and different coffees and tea were much appreciated. We received a warm welcome from Marcelle. Although our car was parked on the street, it wasn't an issue and was quite safe. I would recommend Mountain View Cottage to anyone.
Our room did indeed have a mountain view, and was more spacious than we expected. The little kitchen area had all one needs to make a warm drink or heat a meal. Everything was clean and well organised. A good stay, thank you.
We had a very nice stay. It is neat, clean and very modern. It is also very well located near the main street and all the big wine farms.
Clean, tidy and beautiful private place perfect for a weekend stay.
Very neat and hospitable.
Accommodation is very modern and comfortable. Unfortunately no backup for loadshedding.
It was just right for the short time we were there.
Can recommend that the skylights may be closed in some way. The room has been light since very early in the morning. Other than that, everything is perfect. Very good value for money.
We will go back anytime and also tell friends and family. Thank you for the great place to stay.
Perfect for a romantic getaway.
The unit is in a quiet neighborhood with a beautiful mountain view. The room and bathroom are very modern and have all the comforts one needs. It was nice and warm and cuddly. There was also a large selection of coffee and tea laid out for us to choose from, as well as delicious health biscuits. We will definitely come back again.
Felt very pampered with beautiful room. Flowers in bathroom. Have enjoyed very much!
The apartment is very comfortable and tastefully decorated. The bed and linen is good quality and the bathroom is beautiful. The view of the mountain from the comfort of the bed is spectacular. The hosts were welcoming and helpful and we would happily visit again.
Liked the little extras like Sally Williams nougat on each bed, flowers in the bathroom and bedroom. Super bathroom. Convenient to town could easily walk. Would suggest hosts consider blinds at the entrance to the cottage as in summer we thought the sun would wake one up earlier than perhaps we would want.
It was the perfect place for me and hubby to stay over for a night. Everything was very neat and clean. Very cosy and the view of the mountain was beautiful.
Owners were super friendly, cottage was very clean. We were there for a wedding and I asked the owner if we could check in earlier, and she arranged it that way. Thank you very much for your effort!
Greeted very warmly, nice location, not too far from Main Street but quiet. High roof keeps cold. Very nice bed and bathroom. Kitchenette basic as advertised but was greeted by coffee (plunger and Nescafé) and milk in the fridge with rusks.
Very nice and friendly owners.
Centrally located, modern self-catering unit, tastefully furnished. Fully equipped and more! Friendly hostess. Definitely value for money.
Very neat and clean, nice view of the mountain and quite centrally located. Unfortunately, our car had to sleep outside on the street.
Tastefully studio apartment with everything you require, close to centre of town, yet quiet , peaceful and stunning views. Lovely area to take walks after a day of sightseeing.
We had a very nice stay. Top quality finishes everywhere. But the most important thing was the way our hostess made us feel so welcome.
The accommodation was excellent and so was its location. Marcelle is also a very pleasant hostess. I would easily stay there again.
Marcelle was a wonderful hostess who communicated with us in advance regarding arrangements. There were many "extras" such as electric blankets in the cold, delicious coffee and tea and biscuits, bottles of water and chocolate. Thank you very much for the treat!
A beautiful little hideaway in the most beautiful house.
Me and my husband had a lovely stay at Mountain View Cottage! Very clean and comfortable cottage with everything you need. Perfect location and beautiful view of the mountains. Delicious coffee! Excellent accommodation highly recommended!
Enjoyed it very much.
An incredibly beautiful and spacious cottage with a fantastic view. The water and chocolate in the fridge was a great surprise. Franschhoek is a very hot place and for us an air conditioner would be very welcome.
It was such a treat to stay in Marcelle’s Mountain View Cottage. It was clean, beautiful and had wifi and Netflix too. We are very fortunate to have had such a wonderful experience in Franschhoek in such a convenient location, close to the main center. A true gem, thank you Marcelle for having us.
The place is a hidden gem.
I stayed over for business and checked in quite late. Was a great space to crash after a long day of work in the area. Worth every penny and value for money. Thank you.
The room and bathroom are in a modern building style with a beautiful view of Franschhoekberg. The furniture is neat and matches the modern building style of the house. An effective alarm system helps Gautengers to sleep even more soundly. The environment is neat and very quiet. We would have liked to extend our two night stay by another night, but other bookings were pending.
We enjoyed our stay and appreciated the small touches like fresh milk, risks and filter coffee. The unit is within easy walking distance of the centre and the surrounding area is picturesque and peaceful. We were lucky to have very good weather.
Our stay at Mountain View Cottage is definitely recommended. We were received very kindly. Our view to the mountain is breathtaking!
Marcelle received us very kindly and made us feel at home. The location of the apartment is literally walking distance to the town itself and a cute little pond for that bit of extra nature. The apartment is modernly furnished with a lovely little balcony that looks out onto the Franschhoek klippe pass. Our short stay was pleasant.
Would have preferred to park my car inside but Franschhoek is very safe. Bathroom very spacious and plenty of headroom for shower. Would recommend Mountain View Cottage anytime and Marcelle was very pleasant and room painfully tidy.
Very beautiful. Marcelle is kind and Caring. She made us feel comfortable. I wish we stayed longer.
No bell, it's not a cottage, but a room with an en suite.
Definitely recommended to friends and family.
Modern finish. Bonne with balcony overlooking the mountain. Luxury bathroom and hostess pays attention to small things such as filter coffee, chocolates and shower gel.
Marcelle welcomed us and explained a few details regarding the cottage. But nothing prepared us for the cottage itself. Modern, clean, beautiful linen and towels. Variety of coffee and tea! Milk and water in the fridge. Beautiful smelling hand wash and lotion in a big bathroom with big shower and bath. Huge comfortable bed, beautiful views. And the little extra (chocolate covered nougat) on the bedside tables was just super thoughtful! The location is central - if it wasn't so hot we would have walked everywhere.Thank you Marcelle for making our stay in Franschhoek so enjoyable! We will definitely be back.
Excellent stay and value for money that exceeded our expectations. Would definitely recommend for a weekend away for two in Franschhoek.
