Escape to Gîte, where luxury suites adorned with contemporary furnishings await in a picturesque farm setting. Surprisingly, despite our idyllic location, you'll find yourself just a short walk away from the bustling town and its culinary delights! Nestled in the renowned Franschhoek valley, a mere hour's drive from Cape Town, the beauty and allure of Gîte beckon.

Derived from French roots, the name Gîte represents a distinct type of holiday accommodation. Historically, Gîtes were charming farmworkers' cottages or converted outbuildings and barns residing near the owner's main residence. Interestingly, our very own converted barn on the farm was once referred to as 'The Gîte' for many years. When the time came to bestow a name upon our newly constructed barn-style suites, it felt only fitting that Gîte be the perfect choice.
