Where Charm

Meets Luxury

Indulge in the finer things

Retreat to the charming Franschhoek Valley and indulge in a luxurious stay at Avondrood Guesthouse. Built in 1870, Avondrood’s authentic Victorian Cape Dutch home showcases a deep connection to the area’s French Huguenot heritage. Immerse yourself in the peaceful ambiance of our guesthouse and enjoy the perfect blend of old-world charm and modern amenities, promising a truly relaxing and splendid stay. This is Franschhoek after all – and as much as it is about the wine, it is as much about the finer things in life.
Each of our eight generous suites have a unique theme and character, lavishly decorated to ensure your comfort and enjoyment. Wake up to the tantalising aroma of locally roasted coffee and a delicious full breakfast, lovingly prepared in our farmhouse kitchen to start your day on the perfect note. Framed by mountains, our luscious garden and swimming pool beckon you to step outside and bask in the summer sun, while a larger-than-life fireplace ensures warmth in the heart of our home during the winter. As a family-owned and operated business, we take pride in providing personalised care and attention to every detail of your stay. Our team, led by Justin, is friendly, helpful and attentive – making you feel at home from the moment you walk in.
