ACTIVITIES
Some of South Africa’s best MCC is just on your doorstep. The Franschhoek Wine Tram is always a fantastic idea if you are wanting to see a host of different estates and sample various wines and Le Lude is on the tram! However if you don’t feel like boarding the tram, we would highly recommend a long lazy lunch at Le Lude’s Orangerie.
Strolling to the village at any time of the day, for a spot of lunch, coffee or dinner. The lanes are lovely and secure to walk, and take no longer than five minutes. Its unique positioning allows one to feel entirely remote, yet on the doorstep of everything you need.
It’s not only about food and wine it’s also about art, cars, culture, history and health. The Drakenstein Correctional Centre, marked by a bronze statue of Nelson Mandela, is where the former president walked out a free a man after spending 27 years behind bars. The Franschhoek motor museum on the L’Ormarins Estate is a backseat journey through a billionaire’s garage.
