L’art de vivre column: Franschhoek, South Africa

Like an experiential oasis amidst the days of safari game drives and Cape Town nights, Franschhoek provided a couple of days of enchanting, civilized respite. A quintessential wine town, one can visit numerous wineries on the edge of town or in nearby Paarl or Stellenbosch–c’est facile! Inviting accommodations and restaurants galore take their place next to well manicured homes and tree lined streets.

The stylish and verdant boutique hotel Le Quartier Francais will provide one of the most super overall accommodation experiences in South Africa, with its 2 dining venues–including the acclaimed Tasting Room–tasteful decoration, and abundant green spaces. Le Quartier’s 4 Quarters suites provide abundant space, dressing room, and a dedicated pool & butler.

Be sure to take a short drive to sister property Moreson Vineyards and the restaurant Bread & Wine, where sumptuous, perfectly prepared lunches accompany house wines.
