Mont Rochelle

Discover Mont Rochelle, a stunning 26-bedroom hotel and vineyard just under an hour’s drive from Cape Town in the town of Franschhoek in South Africa.

Franschhoek is a traditional vineyard town in the Western Cape Province famously known as the French Corner of the Cape and is considered to be the food and wine capital of South Africa. Escape to this picturesque corner of South Africa at the foot of the Klein Dassenberg mountain range for relaxation and a superb culinary experience accompanied by some outstanding wines.

In the main hotel at Mont Rochelle there are 22 rooms including six suites all arranged around the main building. All rooms come with Africology branded bathroom amenities, tea and coffee facilities, a Nespresso machine, postcards with stamps, a safety deposit box, hairdryer, a well-stocked inclusive minibar, bluetooth Bose speaker sound system, flat screen TV with selected channels and an international adapter.

There are two restaurants (Miko and the Country Kitchen), a cosy bar, a spa, a gym and a heated outdoor pool. That’s not forgetting a 37 hectare vineyard and wine cellar! 

From personalised wine tastings to a picnic amongst the vineyards, wine enthusiasts will be in heaven at Mont Rochelle. The kitchen can arrange a well-stocked picnic basket with a chilled bottle of wine (or two). If you're looking to get a bit more active, you can take a dip in the outdoor heated swimming pool, work up an appetite in the gym, or just sit back, relax and indulge yourself in the in-house spa.

The grounds at Mont Rochelle cover 39 hectares (about 100 acres) and you’re welcome to go exploring them on bike, or hiking through the hills, valleys and vineyards.

Families or small groups looking looking for a more private retreat can choose to stay in the Manor House, just a short walk from the main hotel building and a stone’s throw from the winery. The Manor House features four beautifully appointed suites, kitchen, lounge, two swimming pools and gym.
