    The rooms in the manor house were super cute with heated floors, heating blankets, and a bathtub. the homemade cookies were a nice touch. Wine tasting included!

    Felt very comfortable, no complaints whatsoever.

    Our stay at this historic farmhouse was incredible. With only three bedrooms, we had the entire place to ourselves, making it feel like our own private retreat. The decanters of port and sherry in the huge sitting room were a lovely touch, and the views of the nearby mountains over the grapevines were simply breathtaking. The staff went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and the level of service was outstanding. We can't wait to visit again!

    The only thing that could have made breakfast better was if there were more vegan options available.

    Stayed at a small and historic wine estate manor. Room was beautifully decorated and peaceful, with complimentary sherry and bath salts. Staff were accommodating and friendly. Breakfast was delicious with a good choice. Spectacular views of surrounding mountains and log fires in the evenings. Very comfortable and well-presented accommodation.

    Lack of evening meals on-site, but town is easily accessible by car or taxi. The manor adjoins a busy daytime tourist location.

    We had a blast exploring the Franschhoek Wine Tram and getting our wine-tasting on at La Motte Estate. The tram ride was so chill, and we got to hop off at different wineries, making it super convenient. And let me tell you, the wine at La Motte Estate was off the hook! We even bought a couple of bottles to take home. And if you're into golfing, there's that too, but we were too busy living our best life to check it out. it was an epic vacation and we had the time of our lives!

    The only thing we wished for was a banging party scene at the hotel. Like, come on, we're party animals!

    Lovely place - stayed in the Manor with only 3 spacious bedrooms - warm welcome from Martha and friendly staff - complimentary wine tasting was a nice touch - perfect breakfast in the courtyard - felt like family being welcomed home - nothing was too much trouble - extended our stay twice.

    Totally recommend this hotel.

    From the moment we arrived at Rickety Bridge Manor House Guest House, we were greeted with warmth and hospitality. the Pinotage room exceeded our expectations with its spaciousness, cleanliness, and comfort. the attention to detail, from the luxurious bedlinen to the fresh milk for tea, made our stay even more enjoyable. the breathtaking views from every window and the use of the small pool added to the overall experience. Breakfast was a delicious feast with a variety of options, and the complimentary wine tasting was a fun and memorable activity. We would definitely choose Rickety Bridge again if we have the opportunity to visit this beautiful area in the future. Cons: Not obvious to find.

    Our stay at Rickety Bridge Manor House was absolutely wonderful. The cozy cottage feel of the rooms made us feel right at home. The heated floors and blankets were a nice touch for those chilly winter nights. The homemade cookies and bathtub added a touch of luxury to our stay. Plus, the free wine tasting included in the rates was a delightful bonus. we couldn't find anything to complain about!

From the moment I arrived, I was greeted by friendly staff and felt welcomed throughout my entire stay. the Pinotage room was spacious, clean, and had all the amenities I needed for a comfortable stay. From the luxurious bedlinen to the large shower and slipper bath, everything was perfect. the views from the room were outstanding and I enjoyed using the small pool. the breakfast spread was delicious and left me satisfied for the day. the complimentary wine tasting was a fun experience that shouldn't be missed. If I ever have the opportunity to visit this beautiful part of the world again, I would definitely choose Rickety Bridge. Cons: Hard to think of anything 🤔.

    We were warmly greeted by the night porter who helped us with our bags, check-in, and showed us to our room. The room was fit for royalty - clean, spacious, and had the most comfortable bed we've slept in years! The staff, especially Marta. They even provided gluten-free options for breakfast. We also enjoyed the complimentary wine tasting. we felt like royalty and would highly recommend this hotel.

    This charming manor house is the perfect spot for a peaceful getaway. With its large rooms under a thatched roof, you'll feel like you're in someone's cozy home. the staff is friendly and always ready to serve you with a smile. the beautiful surroundings and great wine make this place truly special. Breakfasts cooked by Martha are fresh and delicious. Plus, the bar staff is always there to offer you a crisp glass of wine at the end of the day.
