Framed by two large Jacarandas and an ancient oak sits The Library, a striking double storey home containing spacious and stylish accommodation for up to six adult guests, with three ensuite bedrooms.
The Library was has been inspired by famous explorers throughout history, as well as our intrepid travels, and is filled with luxury, surprise and charm. From the upstairs, open-plan living room layout taking in Franschhoek’s expansive views, the deep floating deck with its overstuffed beanbags, the size of the baths, to the fading David Livingstone canvas hiding a flatscreen TV: all reflect our love of entertaining, travel and all things quirky and intriguing.
Just minutes’ walk from the villages bustling main road, The Library rests in tranquil and peaceful surroundings in a quiet corner of the village. A more suitable and relaxing location, for a base to explore the valley and region, would be difficult to find.

Franschhoek Reviews
Always a pleasure to go to a beautiful, clean well-run town. You can walk the town & find great restaurants, interesting shops & even play boules.
The Wine Train for sure
So many wonderful places to eat including lovely outdoor courtyards with live music; lovely bespoke shops plus some necessities like Clicks; incredible world-class wine estates with wine tasting & pairing experiences and the wine tram; lovely accommodation well-tiered; safe to walk around. For an outstanding experience and meal I would recommend La Petite Colombe on Leeu estates.
The view, the quietness, the restaurants,, the wine estates.
Wine tasting trains and trams. Scenery and location.
The relaxed vibe...
Clean, feels safe and beautiful views and hikes.
The village vibe and how safe it is. Also, everyone can walk to where they want to go, instead of getting into a car every time.
Weather, shops, restaurants. Access to vineyards, trips, park run.
Holiday atmosphere without crowded chaos.
