Cape Robin Cottage is a luxurious home from home in the middle of the beautiful town of Franschhoek. It is the perfect base from which to explore the Franschhoek Valley and beyond.
Olivia and Robin have visited Franschhoek from Scotland on a number of occasions and have owned Cape Robin Cottage since 2014. It is their home from home when we are in South Africa. They are both former lawyers. Olivia now runs her own charity and Robin is involved in the real estate industry.
Cape Robin Cottage is a 5 minute walk from the centre of Franschhoek with its world class array of restaurants and shops. There are numerous wine estates within easy reach of the house and the town is the perfect base from which to explore the Cape Winelands.
