Mont Rochelle is graceful country living at its best. Surrounded by picturesque vineyards and craggy peaks of the Dassenberg Mountains in the Cape Winelands, you are transported to a world of luxury and gentle decadence just minutes away from the charming winelands town of Franschhoek.
The 26 rooms and suites at Mont Rochelle are divided into a selection of room types, each inspired by a Cape grape varietal – from the deep, velvety tones of Merlot to the sparkling elegance of Cap Classique. All offer contemporary comfort with rich textures, modern amenities and vineyard or mountain views. For those seeking extra privacy, the exclusive-use Manor House sleeps up to eight adults and six children, complete with two swimming pools, a private gym and a games room.
Food and wine take centre stage of your stay in the midst of all this elegance with two restaurant options, a magnificent al fresco terrace and gourmet picnic baskets to enjoy by the dam or under the shade of an oak tree surrounded by vineyards. Miko is the flagship restaurant with a wonderful view of the valley; the Country Kitchen is in the wine tasting room offering less austere fare and a lively atmosphere to match; the bar opens out onto the lawn with lazy rattan chairs where you can enjoy light meals, sunset drinks or a nightcap by the cosy fire.
Picnic by the dam, work out the in the gym, laze by the pool, take a spa treatment and eat to your heart's content, horseback rides through the farm and mountain biking. Franschhoek is a short shuttle ride away where you'll find more restaurants, shops, museums, galleries, craft shops and about 40 more wine farms to explore.
