Welcome to Happy Valley we are a family-owned self-catering guest lodge situated on a small citrus farm in the heart of the Franschhoek Winelands. Two rivers border the farm, the smaller Kastaiings River and the Franschhoek River which joins the Berg River about 4 km downstream. We are surrounded by mountains and boast exceptional views.
Happy Valley is situated 5 km from Franschhoek and just a short stroll from the famous La Motte and Eikehof vineyards. Join in our harvest and pick your clementines in season! Guests have a choice to choose from our comfortable accomodation, each option offering cosy beds and private bathrooms. The cottages and Manor House also feature a fully equipped kitchen or a kitchenette for your convenience.
Our Manor House and Cottages offer the sought-after peace, tranquillity and privacy you'd expect on a privately owned farm, with the lively little village of Franschhoek, the food and wine capital of the Cape, a mere 5 minutes away.
Our swimming pool is in a secluded spot by the river with ancient oaks offering shade, and there are various braai areas around the Farm. There is a laundry service available.

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.
