Featuring a swimming pool and a gourmet restaurant, Rickety Bridge Manor House is located amongst the vineyards surrounding the historic town of Franschhoek. It offers elegant rooms with free Wi-Fi.

A complimentary breakfast is served every morning at Rickety Bridge. The restaurant allows guests to enjoy picnic lunches on a deck, right amongst the vineyards. Common barbecue facilities are also available.

Really great service from arrival to departure! Special thanks to both Martha and Malusi - who are always there when needed. We let Martha know that we were planning on staying in one evening and having a cheese and wine night. Without asking - Martha went ahead and set up the dining room for us with everything needed and Malusi had the fire roaring for us! Outstanding!!

    We loved our stay at Cape Vue and we are planning a return later this year. A lovely welcome from Dino and a very pretty room. Hugh quality linens and bathroom products, peaceful quiet sleep. The location was fabulous both for the short walk to town, or watching the mountains from the pool area. Service and breakfast was first class. We used our car and Uber whilst visiting vineyards as well as the lovely wine tram. No

    Very comfortable, clean and modern room coupled with a peaceful location on a quiet street meant we had a great couple of nights’ sleep. Even so the location was ideal for walking into the centre of Franschhoeck for local restaurants and shops so we didn’t have to rely on the car. Staff were incredibly welcoming and friendly (we were offered an glass of port on arrival) and allowed us to check in early which was really appreciated after landing from a long flight. Secure parking gave us peace of mind too.
