Le Quartier Francais - Savile Row Travel

Le Quartier Français, a romantic 25-room boutique hotel, is located in the heart of Franschhoek. The property is
the ideal base from which to explore the surrounding Winelands, or you can simply walk into the village to
discover its quaint charms. The extraordinary staff, luxuriously comfortable rooms and attention to detail ensure
that this auberge is the ultimate destination.

The breathtakingly beautiful Franschhoek Valley is renowned as one of the world’s great food and wine destinations. Settled by the French Huguenots in 1688, it has retained its Gallic charm and character. At the heart of the valley is the romantic village of Franschhoek. Within easy driving distance from Franschhoek, one can enjoy the pristine beaches of the Cape, play a round of golf or experience some of the best land-based whale watching in Hermanus.

Franschhoek enjoys a mild Mediterranean climate characterised by warm summers (average temperatures range from 15°C to 30°C) and cool winters with some rainfall (average temperatures range from 8°C to 19°C). It is the perfect destination for ‘swallows’, as summer falls during the northern hemisphere’s winter. Layering is the way to go as weather can turn from warm during the day to cold at night in both summer and winter. In summer, a swimsuit is essential, along with a sun hat, sunscreen, sunglasses, and cool, light clothing. Light jackets or sweaters are recommended for the evenings. In winter, daytime clothing can be lighter, but evenings require woollens.
