A gorgeous vineyard hotel with panoramic mountain views and a wonderful boutique feel.
Sir Richard Branson’s Mont Rochelle hotel and vineyard sits on a vine-clad hilly spot surrounded by the Wineland’s dramatic mountains. This wonderful vantage point overlooks the pretty town of Franschhoek. Its galleries, shops and restaurants and only a short shuttle ride away that’s available twice daily. The grounds sprawl across 100 acres but the service still feels personal and warm, an attribute accredited to the passionate staff that welcome every guest like family.
Enjoy picnics in the vineyards, wine tastings in the 150-year old cellar or a pampering session in the in-house spa. The pool is similarly inviting with uninterrupted countryside views. Children, or 'Little Corkers' as they are called at the estate, are welcome.
