WOW! 10/10, a truly one and a million place. We have traveled all over the world and La Cle was one of our favorite stays. Not only are the guesthouse, rooms, communal areas, and grounds perfectly maintained…but the staff is outstanding. Anything you could possibly need, the staff is right there ready to assist and chat with you! Such amazing people. The breakfast and dinner were AMAZING - best meals we have had in SA! Amazing location, walk right into town and vineyards. If you want a stunning place to stay in Franschhoek, I cannot recommend La Cle highly enough!!!!! Thank you team for making our experience one we will never forget!

Best spot in Franschhoek (PERFECT)!!!!

La Cle Lodge was the perfect hideaway when we arrived for our 3-night stay in wet and wintry Franschhoek recently. It is a lovely 5-bedroom property with heaps of old world charm.  Lizey, the manager who runs the resort is a warm and friendly lady who made sure (along with the very pleasant Ian) that my wife and I were well taken care of during our recent stay in Franschoek. 

La Cle has a great location and is within a 10-minute walk to two supermarkets and a clutch of restaurants, cafés and shops in the town centre.  And when it is cold outside, La Cle is perfect for basking near the fireplace with a good book in hand. We stayed in one of the two spacious garden rooms (the double rainshower is something else!). Breakfasts are a lavish affair, and evening tea and drinks are included in the room rate.

A Cosy and Comfy Lodge

Wonderful stay at la cle . The service and staff are outstanding and made our stay perfect .
Breakfasts were prepared , fires lit and addition treats and cakes were delivered each day . The staff also cooked a bbq one night which was delicious.
Definitely one of the best places I have stayed at and I would recommend this accommodation. We had a villa with 3 double rooms and at upstairs of up to 6 beds .
It was simply a lovely stay

Perfect accommodation

Le Cle is a property full of character and a homely feel - from their bright colorful rooms to their wide open land with lakes and a mini putt-putt course. The property is a great alternative from the overwhelming business of Cape Town and allows you to be one with the wine lands peacefulness. The cherry on top is the service at the lodge, attentive, friendly and welcoming.

Hidden Gem Le Cle

We spent 3 nights here as part of our honeymoon, and loved it. We had a petit room which was very nice, very comfy bed and a nice bathroom. The pool area is amazing with views to die for. Breakfast was amazing, so much on offer and they’ll make you a hot breakfast at request too with no further cost. What sets this apart is the special touches, the complimentary wines poured whilst you bask in the sun, the chocolates by the bed, the wonderful staff who make you feel as if you’re in your own home. Also a great location to walk to many amazing restaurants, bars and to the wine tram (which is epic!). We highly recommend this and would definitely return to a beautiful part of the world

A home away from home

Le Cle was a beautiful lodge in Franschoek.  Just 2 blocks off the lovely center of town, it was a quiet oasis.  Beautiful gardens and winery in their back was lovely.  The staff was exceptional and kept the fireplaces warm (it was a bit chilly in the mornings when we were there), the breakfasts were amazing and every need was met.  We ate a wonderful dinner there one night also and they have massage service you can book which was a great way to end our trip to SA!  Definitely would stay there again.

Close to Town, but Quiet in Franschoek!

We were fortunate to visit Franschhoek, the epicenter of the South African wine lands.  Thank you to Classic Portfolio for arranging our stay, which exceeded all expectations with our lodging, activities and dinning arrangements.  We stayed at La Cle in La Galerie Villa, which couldn’t have be more beautiful.  The villa was absolutely stunning and within walking distance to the village. A special thank you to John and the wonderful La Cle staff for making our stay wonderful!

Fantastic Stay at La Cla Villas

We spent two nights of our honeymoon at La Cle and had the most fantastic time. The property is absolutely stunning - our room had a freestanding bath and one of the comfiest and biggest beds we've ever slept in. We were also welcomed by a complimentary bottle of their Chardonnay, and enjoyed complimentary homemade onion bhajis by the pool. 

The dining room is gorgeous, as is the breakfast - fresh fruit platters, a cheese board, pastries and a variety of delicious hot options cooked to order.  

There is also a small pond at the bottom of the vineyard with pedalos as well as a tennis court. Lovely spot at sunset. 

Chanè, Ian, Carmen and the team were always on hand and regularly checked in to make sure everything was to our liking. Thank you so much for our incredible stay - we'd love to return one day!

Fantastic stay

This beautiful residence is located in a quiet street very close to the village of Franschhoek. You can enjoy a more than 5-star service, tranquillity and an insanely friendly staff. The decoration is top notch, the views magnificent, the catering amazing.... in short, nothing but superlatives for this blissful place! If you're looking for style without excessive bingbling, this is the place to be.

A more than royal welcome...

My husband and I stayed at La Cle in December as the first stop on our 3-week honeymoon in Africa. It was a beautiful, cozy, and wonderful experience to start our trip.

La Cle has a definite cozy, bed & breakfast feeling - it truly feels like you are a guest in someone's home (in a good way!) We stayed in one of the rooms on the bottom floor which was more than spacious (enough so that I had room to do yoga!)

Julia (the manager) as well as her colleague/co-manager were both very personable and always made sure to check in with us as we were coming or going or at breakfast. When we arrived late on a Saturday night (after 16+ hours of travel), they had prepared for us a veritable "feast" - a traditional South African braii with a variety of BBQ'd meats, sides, and a delicious key lime dessert.

The grounds are really breathtaking - its hard to tell when you are inside, but the back part of the inn extends quite a ways and there is a huge field, vineyard, and pond in the back! Would highly recommend at least exploring if not taking a bottle of wine and a blanket to enjoy an afternoon outside.

The breakfast was a highlight as well - fantastic fruit spread, freshly made pastries, fresh orange juice, and a great assortment of cheeses and nuts - in addition to a cook who will prepare eggs, sausage/bacon, etc.

Since we had just arrived in South Africa, the jet lag got us up early in the morning and we ended up doing several long early morning walks around Franschoek. Definitely a benefit of staying at La Cle is its central location within town and the walkability. We visited some of the other bigger hotels (Delayer Graff, Leeu Estates) while we were there and while they were both super nice - it wouldn't have been as easy to walk around. 

We had several great meals while we were in Franschoek - L'Orangerie, Protege, Chef's Warehouse, and La Petite Colombe - all of which we would recommend.
