On the
slopes of the Franschhoek Pass, amidst sweeping tracts of fynbos, lies
the exclusive village of L'ermitage set within the secure grounds of the
prestigious Fransche Hoek Estate, nestled between Chamonix and Haute Cabriere.
Here you
will find the stately 5 Star Chateau Du Pré and 36 charming private
villas, all of which promise guests a warm welcome and a wonderful stay.
Within the village is also the fine-dining Sixteen-88 restaurant, and for
picnics or home entertaining you’ll be spoilt for choice at L’ermitage’s
own sumptuous delicatessen. |
For guests
seeking a unique wellness experience there is the very special Skin and
Body Sanctuary.
It’s just
the place to make sure that the peace of L’ermitage penetrates deep into
the body, refreshing and cleansing in holistic treatments. And of course
for weddings and social celebrations or conferencing and corporate affairs,
you need look no further than L’ermitage for an unforgettable experience.

L’ermitage
is a guest-focused village paying tribute to the French Huguenots who settled
in this valley some 300 years ago.
A sense
of old-fashioned community abounds in this aptly named sanctuary offering
weary city-dwellers the tranquillity and relaxed atmosphere of a select
residential estate.
Here
residents stroll the cobbled streets, meeting neighbours and friends for
coffee or a chat without the rush of deadlines or the press of time.
|
And
yet in the midst of this courteous and kindly lifestyle are superior modern
amenities and the unparalleled lifestyle you would expect in this, the
food and wine capital of South Africa.
Way
back in 1688 some 200 French Huguenots fled persecution in their native
land to find peace and freedom here in this sanctuary of the Cape. It took
remarkable people to pioneer into what was then "darkest Africa" and their
tenacity and work ethic were legendary.
|
|
|
They
not only re-built their own lives for the better but they carved farmlands
and rich pastures out of what had been simply a rocky wilderness.
The
Huguenot Tunnel linking the towns of Paarl and Worcester is a tribute to
their industry, and Franschhoek itself and the Huguenot Monument are both
famously significant tourist attractions.
