Nestled within the Franschhoek vineyards on a dramatic escarpment, is where you’ll find our one-of-a-kind luxury dome. Surrounded by nature, our stargazing accommodation offers captivating views of Franschhoek city, vineyards and mesmerising mountain ranges.
Whether lazing on the air bed with a book or soaking up the bubbles in a wine barrel hot tub, our dome promises the ultimate relaxation experience. Guests can book a lovely dome or glass teepee cabin for a unique getaway experience. The air-conditioned cabins are furnished with comfortable beds with electric blankets for the colder days and have full en-suite bathrooms. Each of the cabins has a comfortable lounge area with a cosy fireplace and tea and coffee facilities. In addition, the glass cabin is equipped for semi-self-catering. Guests can relax in a private hot tub and enjoy the stars at night around the private braai area.
Enjoy a sundowner as the slanting rays of the setting sun, light up the horizon from pink to orange. Turn off the lights and be mesmerized by the African night skies, one would feel that you are engulfed in the galaxy while exploring the milky way. Exclusive and private, a must for honeymoon couples or anyone wishing to catch their shooting star. An early morning speciality coffee and birds sing in chorus as the sun rises and filters through the treetops, sound the beginning of a new day.

Franschhoek is one of South Africa’s oldest settlements, founded in 1688 by French Huguenots, and is surrounded by vineyards and craggy mountains. It’s only an hour from Cape Town and is the perfect escape from the city, a place to winery-hop, eat at gourmet restaurants, hiking world class trials through mountain ranges and taking slow strolls through the streets visiting the unique boutique stores. Franschhoek isn’t undiscovered, it gets busy in the summer, but it doesn’t feel overwhelming, especially if you stay just outside the village, amongst the tranquil vines. The pretty village consists of one main road of whitewashed Cape Dutch homesteads where you can browse restaurants, boutiques, and gourmet shops. Restaurants take advantage of locally grown produce and you’ll eat and drink very well.

Franschhoek Reviews
Always a pleasure to go to a beautiful, clean well-run town. You can walk the town & find great restaurants, interesting shops & even play boules.
The Wine Train for sure
So many wonderful places to eat including lovely outdoor courtyards with live music; lovely bespoke shops plus some necessities like Clicks; incredible world-class wine estates with wine tasting & pairing experiences and the wine tram; lovely accommodation well-tiered; safe to walk around. For an outstanding experience and meal I would recommend La Petite Colombe on Leeu estates.
The view, the quietness, the restaurants,, the wine estates.
Wine tasting trains and trams. Scenery and location.
The relaxed vibe...
Clean, feels safe and beautiful views and hikes.
The village vibe and how safe it is. Also, everyone can walk to where they want to go, instead of getting into a car every time.
Weather, shops, restaurants. Access to vineyards, trips, park run.
Holiday atmosphere without crowded chaos.
