Revel in four star comfort at Cathbert Country Inn, nestled into the foothills of the majestic Simonsberg.

Enjoy the choice of luxury suites, or standard deluxe rooms, each with an en-suite bathroom and open plan bedroom and lounge.

The spacious rooms, furnished with indigenous woods are equipped with mini bars and TV, and warmed by under floor heating or a fireplace in winter.

Each airconditioned unit opens onto a veranda and secluded garden, with spectacular vistas across vineyards to the towering Boland Mountains.

Wake up to country quiet, clean air and glorious views.

Shed city stress and strain on mountain walks or delight in bird watching.

The inn, at the start of the Franschhoek Wine Route, is an ideal base for daily sight seeing trips - you can follow the wine routes, exploring the quaint, historical towns of Stellenbosch, Franschhoek and Paarl and the surrounding vineyards, tasting the fruit of the valley.

Cape Town is just 40 minute drive away. Visit the Waterfront or take the cableway up Table Mountain. Or simply opt out, locate a sun umbrella and a novel, and laze beside the pool until you can see the valley change as the sun sinks behind the mountains.

Enjoy pre-dinner drinks whilst indigenous guinea-fowl strut their stuff before settling down for the night, and when owls start to hoot, watch the full moon rise over the mountains.

Monday to Friday gourmet dinners are served from a set menu which changes daily and local Cape wines compliment your meals.
