Overview
Built in 1797 and nestled within the striking landscapes of the Franschhoek Mountains, the Manor House at Rickety Bridge provides a captivating blend of history and luxury. This historic Cape Dutch manor house is surrounded by lush vineyards, offering a serene retreat. The location does require a short 5-minute taxi journey to reach the town center, but being on the same property as a winery with its own restaurant, Paulina's, means gourmet food and fine wines are always within reach.
The Manor House has three superior luxury en-suite rooms, each uniquely decorated and equipped with modern comforts such as air conditioning and underfloor heating. Adding to the charm, the rooms also feature large bathrooms with separate bathtubs and showers. Past kimkim travelers have praised the property's tranquility, commending the comfortable and peaceful atmosphere. For an extra touch of luxury, the Manor House can be booked as an exclusive stay, which includes services like a housekeeper and a night porter, along with a discount at Paulina’s Restaurant.
In addition to the comfort of the rooms, the Manor House offers a variety of amenities to enhance your stay. From the private swimming pool and two lounge areas to the quaint dining room with yellow-wood beamed ceilings, there's plenty of space to unwind. You can start your day with breakfast either in the dining room or poolside on sunny mornings. For a truly memorable experience, visit the on-site Wine Tasting Centre, which offers a fascinating look into the winemaking process and views of the vineyards and mountains. You can also indulge in massages, body treatments, and facials or simply relax by the fireplace in the lobby.
