Franschhoek, Afrikaans for “French Corner”, is a small, picturesque town in the Western Cape and one of the oldest towns in South Africa. It is about 75 kilometers from Cape Town and has a population of slightly over 15,000 people.

Franschhoek was the first place the French Huguenots settled in 1688 when they arrived from France and also where they planted their first vines.  The town is one of South Africa’s top tourist destinations with its Cape Dutch buildings, quaint atmosphere, award-winning restaurants, upmarket guest houses, luxury wine estates and wedding venues.
