La Roche Estate: Luxury Family Suite

This private estate, in the Robertsvlei Valley below the towering Franschhoek Mountains, is surrounded by sweeping vineyards, beautiful gardens, a sparkling dam (complete with a floating chapel) and a smattering of tasteful farm cottages. The vineyard luxury suites, named for their location overlooking chardonnay and pinot noir vines, are stylishly appointed with contemporary decor – which includes a heavenly hot tub beneath towering pines (and a Jacuzzi-sized indoor spa bath in one), making La Roche the perfect place for a romantic escape.
