La Chataigne Wines & Guest Cottages
La Chataigne Wine Farm has belonged to the Parkfelt family since they moved to Franschhoek from Gothenburg, Sweden, in 1972. Today the farm is run by Richard and Julie Parkfelt where they produce a selection of wines and run five lovely cottages. It is a working farm, situated in the heart of the winelands, 7 km from Franschhoek village. We encourage our guests to switch off, relax and absorb the tranquil surroundings at La Chataigne. Guest are welcome to walk along the river bordering the farm, meander through the vineyards, soak up the sun at the Orchard Pool and enjoy a game of boules at sunset. Later, relax on the stoep (verandah/patio) and sip a glass of wine from the very vineyards spread out before you. And don't forget to forage some vegetables and herbs out of the Garden to add to you home-cooked dinner.
Our guests have a choice of five cottages: two quaint two bedroom Riverside Cottages, one Scandi Chic newly renovated one bedroom Riverside Cottage with a lawn and private pool, and two contemporary one bedroom Stable Cottages with mountain views and private pools. We love children however ONLY TWO OF OUR Riverside Cottages (Kastanje and Marron) CAN ACCOMMODATE ACCOMPANYING CHILDREN. All cottages are self-catering with an open plan living area, fireplace, fully equipped kitchen and bbq/braai facilities. The two bedroom Riverside Cottages have north and south facing veranda's and share The Orchard Pool for hot summer days. Our one bedroom Riverside cottage has a private pool and lawn with mountain views, and the Stable cottages have spacious decks with private pools. All of our cottages offer a tranquil space for a relaxing getaway. World renowned for its spectacular beauty, superb Cape wines and world class restaurants, our beautiful village of Franschhoek is a definite must-visit destination on any trip to the Western Cape of South Africa. We are happy to offer any recommendations and guidance when planning your trip to Franschhoek and the winelands.
