A pleasant and helpful staff member greeted us on arrival and quickly explained the house rules. Our room was bright and comfortable. Breakfast was healthy, fresh and delicious. It's a little far from the town centre, but the price reflects this. Overall a very pleasant stay and great value for money.

I had stayed at Erica before, so I knew I would find a warm welcome, comfort, cleanliness and efficiency + plenty of parking. (Extra blanket in the cupboard in case.) No big criticisms. A bit of a nuisance to have to outside and close the shutters in order to darken the room - curtains would help. A rug on the... More

There is not much to add to other peoples comments other than to reiterate that it is excellent value for money and comfortable. Good breakfast and fast wifi are definite positives and it is conveniently located for access to both the wineries and the centre of town

Erica's had everything we needed for a relaxing stay in the midst of South Africa's wine region. The rooms were clean and comfortable. The wifi worked well here which is not always a given in South African B&Bs. The pool looked great but we did not get a chance to take advantage of it. The breakfast was a good way... More

We stayed here in January 2012 for one night. The bedroom was not that big and the bathroom not very clean. I think that we just expected more in advance. Therefore we were a little bit disappointed. The service was very good and the breakfast tasted very good. The location is very nice, it is not far from the center... More

Very convenient for central Franschoek. Clean and well equipped rooms with direct access to garden and private patio. Safe and friendly, and with excellent staff . First class breakfast served by the pool in the attractive garden. Would definitely recommend and will return if in Franschoek again.

As far as B&B's go in the area this is only very average, large rooms, nice pool but could do with a bit of a push to make it comparable to other local places to stay. Decor not very tasteful, hairs on your towels, in the shower, on the breakfast, even after 3 days they were still there. Spacious and... More

We stayed here for one night after attending a wedding in the area. The guest house is on the outskirts of the village, close to the Hugenot monument. It's a residential house converted into guest suites. There is ample parking and each suite has a table and chairs in a little outside area. We didn't have the breakfast (though it... More
