136 guests' feedbackThe cottage itself is beautifully designed, offering a perfect blend of comfort and charm. Every detail was thoughtfully arranged, making it feel like a home away from home. The serene surroundings provided the perfect backdrop for relaxation, and the amenities were top-notch. I especially appreciated the cozy living area and the well-equipped kitchen, which made my stay even more enjoyable. Whether you're looking for a romantic getaway or a peaceful retreat, Olive and Vine Cottage is the ideal choice. I highly recommend it to anyone in need of some time away. You won't be disappointed!
Had a great time at Olive and Vine!
We had such a nice stay! Sophia was fantastic and so nice and helpful! There is everything you need in the unit! Central, close to everything and yet it feels like you are far away from it all. Wish we could have stayed there longer.
, it was delicious, beautiful, neat, peaceful, divine!
Due to our schedule, we were only home in the evenings, which we regret. Would really like to experience the tranquility of the surroundings more.
My stay with Sophia at the Olive and Vine farm was amazing. Sophia was really responsive, friendly and accommodating. The Cottage is amazing, and really well located. Highly recommend.
Amazing little cottage with all the amenities that you would need for a cosy stay, especially during winter.
A wonderful stay! Relaxing and great location - and loved the dogs' company!
It was beautiful views, relaxing, homely.
The cottage is very well equipped, lacks nothing. Host is very responsive and helpful.
Our stay was exceptional, and the hostess is an absolute gem. The cottage is fully equipped with every amenity one could desire. Its location on a farm, yet conveniently close to town, offers the perfect blend of tranquility and accessibility. Truly excellent value for money; we would have loved to extend our stay.
Beautiful farm cottage with everything you need plus loads more. The place was a big surprise and we will definitely visit again. The hostess is very warm and caring.
Comfortable, big, well-equipped, clean chalet. The hostess is friendly and helpful. She checks regularly if there are any issues, and if there are, they are repaired promptly. Good location in Franschhoek, quiet and pleasant surroundings.
Sophia received us very kindly and the apartment is beautifully and tastefully furnished, and we felt very much at home. I would love to visit longer!
Awesome place and very friendly and helpful hostess. Would definitely recommend this to anyone. Place extremely well-equipped with a lot of little additions that made us feel very welcome.
Super nice stay, nice barbecue there in the garden.
Real wine estate feel. Beautiful location. Well equipped.
Wonderful hostess and host, warm atmosphere, stunning cottage, very neat, clean and classy and just a short walk away from all the shops. Perfect getaway!
See stars.
Lovely place. Very very well equipped. Everything man, like your own home. Nice views. Outdoor pool was a winner.
Nice cottage in the shadow of the surrounding mountains. Very friendly host.
The cottage is stunning and very well equipped. Our hostess went out of her way to welcome us and make sure we had the load shedding schedule. The whole atmosphere and farm environment is more than worth it. 10 stars for this stay.
The farm is lovely, the dogs are very well behaved, and the cottage is cosy. The host was incredibly friendly.
Our stay was fantastic. The cottage had everything we needed and much more. The best views. There were sufficient blankets, a gas heater and an electric blanket that kept us nice and warm.
It was very pleasant! The place was very neat and ideal for one or two people. Would definitely recommend a weekend away here. The puppies on the farm were also terribly cute.
Well equipped kitchen if you're looking to stay in rather than eat out. Only had two problems, neither of which were an issue for us - the panel heater in the bedroom was cracked and didn't work (the electric blankets made up for it), and we could only get one of the three panels on the gas heater in the living area working.
We had a very pleasant stay. The cottage is well equipped. The bed is the most comfortable I have ever slept in. We would stay there again.
Very comfortable cottage with everything needed for a stay of a few days. On the outskirts of town, so it is quiet and rural, but an easy walk to the village.
Unfortunately it was only 1 night, but most enjoyable. Every detail was attended to, and every kind of appliance was provided. Only one thing was lacking: a bench of sorts to place a suitcase or two on, and the place was a bit hard to find.
Enjoyable, thank you.
Nice environment and close to all the shopping centers.
Accommodation has it all - value for money, close to town, very clean and well equipped, great views and a friendly, helpful host, Sophie.
Beautiful accommodation among the vineyards. Neat and clean. Really wish we could have stayed longer.
Pleasant and peaceful stay.
It was a super nice experience, we will definitely see you again in the new year.
Very good directions to the place, it's beautiful, water pressure a little low, but the place is well equipped with everything needed.
Nice house, everything in place nice view on mountains.
Very nice working farm. The house is old but very clean with enough decent electrical equipment and crockery with clean linen. I would highly recommend him if you want to relax and have all the shops within walking distance. The hostess is very professional and friendly.
Kitchen fully equipped. The surroundings with its beautiful mountains and fruit and vineyards make getting up in the morning special. The giant trees are a bonus in the garden. Ideal place to just go and relax.
Everything you need. Good service.
The place is so special, equipped with everything one would need and more. The farm is also not too far from the town. Sophia is a brilliant hostess and very helpful. We really enjoyed our time here!
The host and hostess had our best interests and safety throughout our stay even though we had a flood in the Western Cape. Our challenges that we encountered turned out to be the highlights of our stay. The accommodation had everything that we needed to make our stay comfortable. The host and hostess were fantastic people to have met. We even met Pigasso at the sanctuary on the adjoining farm.
We loved the cottage and the location!
This is a gem in Franschoek. The tranquility of the farm is what makes it so special. Excellent clean equipped residential unit with an incredibly beautiful view of the mountains and vineyards. Nice to walk around with the friendly dogs that accompany you. There are also two other accommodation options on the farm. Conveniently close to all the attractions in the town and surrounding area. But finally the unbelievably friendly reception with which you are received by Sophia.
Everything we wanted was there.
Really a very nice place. Little things that make a big difference and the place had it all. Will definitely go back again.
Extremely well maintained and equipped cottage excellently equipped for load shedding - rechargeable light bulbs on most lights and gas stove. Nice and quiet on a farm but within 1 km of the town centre. The hostess, Sophia, is very friendly and involved.
Sophia helped us with all special requests. The accommodation was extremely well equipped and spacious with a lovely view over the vineyards and beautiful Franschhoek mountains. Quiet and peaceful environment. Can recommend this place to anyone.
I wanted to take a moment to express our sincere gratitude for the wonderful experience we had while staying at The Olive and Vine Cottage in Franschhoek when we recently celebrated a birthday there. First and foremost, the cottage provided us with a charming and authentic farm-style atmosphere, allowing us to fully embrace the tranquility of the countryside while also being conveniently close to the vibrant heart of the village. Being able to walk down to the center of Franschhoek was a tremendous advantage and allowed us to explore the town effortlessly. We truly appreciated the host’s proactive approach to ensuring our comfort throughout our stay. Communication via WhatsApp was thoughtful and reassuring. Knowing that we could simply knock on her door if we needed anything made us feel genuinely welcome and cared for. Her hospitality added an extra layer of warmth to our stay. The highlight of our time at The Olive and Vine Cottage, without a doubt, was the breathtaking views. Every morning, we woke up to the awe-inspiring scenery that surrounded us. It was a visual treat that we will treasure in our memories. My only regret we have is that the weather was too chilly to take advantage of the charming outdoor bathtub. We can only imagine how delightful it would be on a warmer day. Franschhoek, as a destination, also exceeded our expectations. There was no shortage of activities to enjoy, from exploring the local wineries and farms to savouring exquisite cuisine at the town's many restaurants. We are delighted to recommend The Olive and Vine Cottage to anyone visiting the area, as it truly added to the overall magic of our trip. In closing, our stay at The Olive and Vine Cottage was an unforgettable experience. Thank you for your warmth, and hospitality, and for providing us with a cosy and picturesque retreat. We look forward to returning in the future and creating even more cherished memories.
It was lovely. The hostess communicated very well and was very accommodating and friendly.
The loveliest stay with indescribable views. The water pressure is just pathetic and you have to jump around in the shower to get wet. I'm sure a cheap pressure pump would be able to sort it out.
Clean, tidy, quiet environment.
Would have liked to stay longer.
The cottage is beautifully situated and fully kitted out with everything that you would need. Tea, coffee, milk and rusks were provided which was a lovely, welcoming touch.
House has a stinky smell. Shower has no pressure. Standing and waiting to get wet, only other option is the outdoor bath. House is extremely cold. No option with loadshedding.
Very cozy, comfortable cottage with everything one would need. Will definitely recommend it.
Very clean and there is everything you could need. Hostess very friendly.
Best stay ever!
Farm is a short distance from town which makes it very convenient, but also wonderfully peaceful and quiet if you want to quickly get away from the activities in town. Very nice stay.
We were in the area for a wedding, but will definitely have to come back for a relaxing stay. The cottage is stylish and very well equipped. With a large room, living room and kitchen, the weekend was just too short.
It was so nice to be able to visit and relax on a farm. It is very close to the town, so could easily go on trips in the area. We were treated very kindly and the hostess made our visit unforgettable.
The cottage is equipped with everything one needs and more with beautiful views of the mountains. Sophia is a hostess-thousand and made sure I had everything I needed for my time there! Will definitely recommend. 10 out of 10!
Olive and Vine is a haven of tranquility and relaxation in the beautiful cottage surrounded by the most beautiful nature! Sophia is a top notch hostess! We would love to stay at Olive and Vine again and next time for more than just one night. Thank you so much Sophia!
Value for money, clean and very safe.
Would definitely recommend!
Highly recommend this beautiful renovated and decorated farm cottage. Everything one could possible need has been provided for and so much more! Ample room, comfy bed and furniture, excellent WiFi, plenty of backup options in the event of loadshedding, absolute silence at night (no traffic noise). Our only regret was only having two nights there and I hope one day we will be able to visit again. This is probably the nicest place we have ever stayed in when booking through the website.
It was everything and more we expected. The cottage is perfect with everything you need, neat and clean. The view is beautiful. We just want to thank Sophia again for the warm welcome and kindness. Was just the best and will definitely go back well.
Thank you very much Sophia for your warm welcome on your beautiful farm! We had such a nice stay and regretted not being able to stay longer. The cottage is wonderfully large, with all necessities and your dogs and other animals are friendly and peaceful! Will definitely recommend you.
Very friendly people, nice braai place and enough space.
It is always nice to arrive at a clean place, well equipped and be greeted by a friendly smile - this time Sophia's smile. They will definitely see us again, thank you.
See stars.
Vineyards and mountains your front yard. Particular silence.
Great place and very comfortable.
The accommodation is very neat and spacious, and the farm is beautiful. Sophia is very friendly and accommodating.
It was a lovely visit in a beautiful town and surroundings.
We enjoyed our one night stay thoroughly. It is quaint and private and a perfect location to explore the area from.
The owners are very approachable and help with inquiries where they can. Have a nice time here.
Beautiful surroundings as well as a very peaceful atmosphere.
Quaint and rustic which would not suit everyone but we were fine with it except the shower which needs an upgrade. Very restful atmosphere although the wedding up the road caused some traffic and music noise but no fault of owners. Lovely surroundings and I'm sure would usually be very peaceful. The weather helped!
The place could do with some upgrading. An air conditioner would be nice, as well as a TV with DStv.
Very comfortable accommodation. We really enjoyed the time on the farm over Christmas. It is very close to the central activities of Franschhoek, but far enough to enjoy the tranquility of the surroundings. The host lady and gentleman are very friendly and helpful. Can definitely recommend this destination.
Given the location of the cottage, being on the fringe of the town, we were able to walk to the majority of the open gardens participating in the Franschhoek Open Gardens weekend, which was great.
The cottage is thoroughly equipped with everything one could need, as if the owners themselves stayed there for a weekend to determine what is needed to make your stay carefree. The view of the vineyards and olive trees, the stream with the pig's ears and the mountains is breathtakingly beautiful and feels like you are in a park. Beautiful! Would we stay there again? Definitely!
The Olive and Vine Farm Cottage offers spacious accommodation on a working farm a stone's throw / walking distance from everything Franschhoek town has to offer. There is everything and more than is needed for a short visit or a longer self-catering holiday in the area. Would definitely recommend!
Exactly what we needed. Comfortable and clean. Close to town. Perfect!
We really enjoyed our stay at the Cabernet Cottage. The place's peaceful location among vineyards and olive groves was exactly what we were hoping for, yet it was central enough to easily get to everything in Franschhoek. The house looks quite rustic from the outside but was neatly and cutely equipped on the inside and we had everything we needed, even with WiFi access even though we were hidden on a farm. We had a lovely walk on the farm, together with the very friendly dogs.
The house was very neat, close to everything and has the most beautiful view.
Clean air, willow trees, Wineland, cosy, location.
One gets a farm feeling when one is there. It was very nice to stay there over the weekend.
We had such a good time. The place is neat, quiet and close to everything in Franschhoek. We would really recommend it if you just want to have a nice rest or for wedding anniversary.
The cottage was well-equipped, comfortable and cosy. The owner's attention to detail was evident. Quiet, tranquil and private setting with beautiful views.
Lovely and quiet, with only all the sounds of nature.
Neat and clean inside.
The hostess goes out of her way to make you feel welcome. She sent us directions well in advance so that we could easily locate the place. The Cottage is on a working farm with one of the most beautiful views while enjoying a glass of wine, but is also close to all the tourist attractions making it easy to explore the area. We had a great time at The Olive and Vine Farm Cottage and would recommend it anytime.
Wonderful cottage in the wine country nature. Sophia and Danie are fantastic hosts. The cottage has everything you need and more, e.g. coffee for that first morning's wake up, firewood and lighters, microwave oven, gas stove, good and clean linen, etc.
The stay here was enjoyable and pleasant. The beautiful surroundings where the guest house is located make the stay that much more enjoyable.
The Cabernet Cottage is everything a city person could wish for. It is small but very intimate, simple but special, it looks like an ordinary tin house from the outside but inside it is exquisitely decorated, warm and cosy. The Dover stove in which you can make a fire kept us warm on a cold, rainy evening. The bed is nice and big and we felt like a king and queen. The farm is breathtakingly beautiful with blossoms on the plum trees and beautiful olive trees and a babbling brook with beautiful pig's ears (which just grow wild) on our front porch. Closer to Heaven (paradise) an earthly person cannot come! Thank you Danie and Sophia for an unforgettable experience!
Was looking for a quiet place where I just wanted to be alone and find myself again. It got what I wanted. Calmness.
Was welcomed so hospitable and friendly, very neat and clean accommodation. Will definitely use it again.
Was very awesome to stay.
We stayed at the Cabernet Cottage unit of The Olive and Vine Farm Cottage and it was wonderful! Such a beautiful piece of land, the cottage and clean and tidy, and our hosts, Daniel and Sophia were so welcoming and helpful. Thank you so much for a lovely stay!
The cottage where we stayed is beautiful and full of character. It was very clean and tidy and the owners also provided milk and coffee which was wonderful. There is a braai area should this be necessary and we will definitely stay there again. The bed and bedding were of good quality and we slept wonderfully. It offers a farm atmosphere with a beautiful view and our vehicle could stand near the house. We had to get used to the geyser which is gas operated, but quickly figured it out. Really an affordable, cute place.
The cottage is small but has most things you need, including a very comfy bed. It's more rustic than luxurious but the owners are always on hand and were brilliant at topping up the firewood every day.
Felt a bit too secluded but overall a very good stay. Will be back. Thank you.
On a farm, away from city, quiet, beautiful. would like to go there again
There was just a bit of noise when we got there - some kind of function in a place next door. Can imagine that it can get quite hot in the summer - would recommend an air conditioner. We had a good time, except for the midges - at least they had a peaceful sleep - maybe put something outside that lures the midges away. Furthermore, it was very peaceful and breathtakingly beautiful.
The stove gives the warmness of the cabin. It is quiet and safe to relax, we will sure come back again.
Comfortable, well located, value for money.
The Olive and Vine have far exceeded our expectations. That's exactly what we were looking for and more! The vineyards are on your back porch and it's a 360 ° natural beauty around you that brings you back to tranquillity. We only stayed two nights but will definitely be back for at least a week! Sophia is a fantastic host who bakes the most delicious rusks and radiates so much love and care. Her dogs are also a treat and the outdoor bath is so special! We would recommend The Olive and Vine to anyone and will be back for sure!
The cottage has a beautiful view of the vineyards and mountains. Everything you could need is provided including the most delicious farm rusks and filter coffee. Will definitely look no further than this superbly located cottage.
Many thanks to Sophia for her hospitality and kindness. We had such a nice welcome. The unit is fantastically equipped. We who flew from Pretoria to Cape Town did not need to take anything extra with us. So nice to experience the tranquility and peace on the farm, even though they were busy with their normal farming activities, it didn't bother us at all. What we got was beyond our expectations of what we expected from a guest house. Our time there was very pleasant and will definitely stay there again in the future.
Very nice environment. Nice walk-in kitchen, spacious for 2 people. Just needs a fireplace.
We will definitely go back to Olive and Vine Farm Cottage!
Thank you for a nice few days. Very nice stay.
The place was very cute and everyone is friendly. Will definitely stay here again.
Stunning cottage, neat and clean. The outside bath is very special. Thank you for a great stay.
An amazing and cute cottage that feels like home. All we needed were there. Very clean and excellent service. The outside bath is a winner. What an awesome stay we had.
Quiet, clean, well located, pleasant and I would highly recommend it. As well as the bath under the stars. Was wonderful! Thank you very much.
Very clean, neat and a fully-equipped kitchen.
Everything you need. We really enjoyed the grass and big trees. Completely private, very peaceful and quiet. It was an experience for our soul. Load capacity was no problem, gas stove and enough candles.
I was very warmly and warmly welcomed by Sophia. The cottage is spacious and very comfortable. The surroundings are lovely and peaceful. Definitely a come back place.
Centrally located just on the edge of town we enjoyed the tranquil setting.
Was a lovely peaceful stay, hospitality and friendliness of owners. Beautiful surroundings, very comfortable, clean and tidy and close to everything. Definitely recommend.
The reception was friendly, comfortable and we immediately felt at home. Very neat house and everything was at our disposal (delicious home-baked biscuits). Will definitely stay there again, and recommend to family and friends.
Most beautiful cottage and friendliest hostess. Definitely the best place in Franschhoek.
Fantastic people, area and experience. Feels like we went to visit our family. Warm welcome with friendly people and animals. Perfect for a getaway from life's chaos. A treasure hidden among white mountain tops and vineyards.
Sophia was a wonderful hostess and even left us delicious, freshly baked biscuits in the apartment. It was a lovely place to stay, with lots of space in lovely surroundings. We will definitely stay there again!
We had a lovely time at The Olive and Vine Farm Cottage. The cottage is neat, well equipped and in die most beautiful environment. We will definitely stay there again.
Wonderful farm location. Quiet and very safe. Well equipped. Wonderful hostess.
Very nice unit, nothing too short, fully equipped. Sophia is a wonderful hostess. The farm is beautiful and easy to find. We had a good time and drove around. Will definitely visit again.
We enjoyed it, nothing was lacking with accommodation. Will definitely recommend this.
Lovely stay. Sorry to have missed Sophia, but she was very proactive in keeping contact and making arrangements. Very special with all the little extras: rusks and milk and tea/coffee and sugar - thank you. I suggest looking at the shower head - that pressure and nozzle is not easy to wash long hair with (understand water restrictions). Bed is a spring-type. Not so great for a bad back and wriggly husband.
We had excellent service from start to finish and would recommend Olive and Vine Farm Cottage to anyone. Sophia is the best hostess and the place is so well furnished. It is so beautiful and peaceful on the farm and the break did us a lot of good! Will go back again anytime. Wonderful!
The house is located in the mountains with the most beautiful views of the mountains. The house was clean and tidy with a well equipped kitchen and very neat and clean.
We had a very nice stay. Fully equipped, neat and clean house. Sophia and Danie go out of their way to make guests feel at home. We would have liked to stay longer. We even heard the owls in the trees early in the morning.
We had a lovely stay in a neat house with a friendly welcome and unbelievable view over the mountains and vineyards.
