La Residence

La Residence General Information


La Residence is a Tuscan-influenced Cape Dutch Farmhouse with more than a hint of Louis XV. The product of a union between an interior designer and an art historian, this small hotel is a wickedly garish montage of exposed roof beams, Tuscan arches and loggias, dazzling period pieces and Victorian art deco. If the opulent glam-rock house doesn’t bowl you over, the setting might: on the edge of a private dam in the the Franschhoek valley, surrounded by lines of vineyards and sheer mountains that rise into the blue like monumental dinosaur skeletons.

Hotel accommodation at La Residence is nothing short of regal. The 11 suites are so big you could fly a glider in them, the four-posters are lost in the centre and the bathrooms dwarf mid-sized hotel rooms. The double-volume living area is a rich contrast to the simple beauty framed by each picture window.

La Residence – country living in the height of luxury


Despite its veneer of bourgeois collectors' items, life at La Residence, while retaining all the elements of a luxury hotel, is simple and relaxing. Sofas, a crackling fire and steaming mugs of hot chocolate lure you into the kitchen to chat with the chefs at work preparing your food; summer salads and seafood are served on the shaded terrace and winter tagines and soups in the firelit banquet room. Between meals the vineyards and estate offer invigorating scenic walks and the dam is stocked with trout if you fancy your arm with a fly.
