“I had the absolute pleasure of staying at Ludus Magnus for two nights, and I can honestly say it was one of the most memorable experiences I’ve ever had.
From the moment I arrived, I was captivated by the breathtaking beauty of the estate. Surrounded by vineyards, orchards, and the majestic Franschhoek mountains, the setting is like something out of a dream. It’s peaceful, private, and feels like your own little piece of paradise.
The accommodation was flawless—elegant, spacious, and……
“From the moment we arrived we knew we'd found a little piece of heaven. The welcome could not have been more friendly and accommodating, the design and quality and maintenance of the buildings is immaculate. It sits in a tranquil area where the only sounds are the wind and wildlife. But the single thing that stands out the most and made our stay so special and memorable was the kindness, attentiveness, friendliness and superb service from all the staff. Even the gardeners waved a friendly "good……

“Ein wunderschönes, liebevoll gepflegtes Weingut mit großzügigen, geschmackvoll eingerichteten Zimmern. Der Ausblick auf die Weinberge ist grandios. Das Restaurant bietet eine kleine feine Karte und wir haben sehr gut gegessen. Das Weintasting hatten wir leider verpasst, da wir nur eine Nacht auf der Durchreise waren. Definitiv ein Ort und Grund um wiederzukommen ”
“Wir wurden sehr lieb empfangen auch nach der offiziellen Ein Check Zeit und waren begeistert von der liebevollen mit Stil eingerichteten, sehr sauberer Unterkunft. Tolle Gastgeber, leckeres Essen und Trinken und ein traumhafter Blick! ”
“Incrível! Passamos o aniversário do meu marido! O hotel nos fez uma surpresa e tivemos um pôr do sol com espumante e uma degustação do jantar com espumante na parte superior do hotel! Simplesmente foi tudo maravilhoso!!! Decidimos até ficar mais 1 diária para podermos aproveitar! Equipe maravilhosa, comida fantástica, SPA muito bom!!! Tudo perfeito!!!”
“Um lugar muito especial na região de Fanschhoek. Fomos atendidos maravilhosamente bem pelos proprietários, que foram muito simpáticos, agendaram wine tasting e também deram dicas para o jantar próximo à propriedade. O lugar é lindo, apartamento espaçoso e com uma vista incrível para os vinhedos e montanhas. Serviço de excelência altamente recomendado. ”
“We had a wonderful 3 nights stay. Beautiful surroundings and a lovely setting at the restaurant to enjoy a delicious breakfast. Our room was large with a lovely bathroom. It was quiet and cool so barely needed to use the AC. But what made it such a wonderful place to stay were the amazing staff, who were so friendly and helpful they truly made our stay very special. Can’t wait to stay again. ”
“This place is safe, secure, clean. Everyone has been kind and helpful. They take great care of their property.
I highly recommended, and hope to be back again.
Everything you need is within walking distance. The vineyards are bountiful. Inlove this place!!!”
“The Cottage is beautifully decorated and spotlessly clean, the host Jan has thought of everything. The private area outside and the pool are fab, pretty garden with lots of flower's and shrubs to attract the birds. Jan sent us useful information on booking and then more on check in which helped us decide how we would spend our time, he gave us excellent recommendations for restaurants and vineyards to visit. There were lots of lovely little touches each day it was definitely a 5 star……
“I can't say enough good things about our stay. The staff was phenomenal. So very welcoming and helpful with ideas for spending our time in Franschhoek. Our room was beautiful, large and comfortable. Breakfast was delicious with many choices. The location is in town within walking distance to many shops, restaurants and the wine tram. Highly recommend Avondrood Guest House.”
“Wonderful stay in the exquisite two bedroom apartment. Spotlessly clean and luxurious. Beautiful views from the apartment and excellent location too. The owner and her colleague were also very helpful and went above and beyond. Would highly recommend. ”
“Had a Marvellous time - The staff make you so welcome and everything is catered for excellently- from breakfast to assisting with dinner reservations, places to see, the owner even went to get a razor and shaving cream from the local shop as I had forgotten mine, Champagne for our anniversary - I can not recommend this place enough it’s a place of tranquility and splendour.”
