Like its sister property, Tockies, Tugela’s’ understated tin-roofed veranda belies the elegance and extent of the property beyond its blue shutters. Lovingly renovated by the children of its original owner, Tugela, in memory of the many enchanted, sun-kissed family holidays they spent there, Tugela blends an eclectic collection of Botanical, wildlife and bird prints, bamboo and open-beam ceilings, woven African baskets, grass-lamp chandeliers, colourful Indian cotton bedspreads and cushions, with bright walls and textured wall paper to give this home a wonderfully relaxed, fun, yet sophisticated, feel.
With double-volume doors, opening onto a magical garden, alive with birds, squirrels, roses and well-established trees – even the odd owl; a large sun-drenched swimming pool, pool house, and wrap-around views of the surrounding mountains, Tugela is a surprisingly secluded, and wonderfully serene, family sanctuary in the heart of vibrant Franschhoek.

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.
