Klein Genot Wine & Country Estate

A tranquil luxury retreat nestling between two rivers on the outskirts of Franschhoek, the culinary capital of South Africa. Klein Genot’s six suites are individually decorated and each has a private terrace.

Klein Genot Wine and Country Estate is a truly outstanding owner-managed luxury guesthouse nestling beneath the Franschhoek Mountains in a peaceful corner of the Franschhoek Valley. The combination of traditional farmhouse hospitality, Feng Shui philosophy, beautiful gardens and majestic mountain scenery make Klein Genot the perfect place to soothe the senses and recharge the batteries. Whether one is taking a leisurely stroll around the grounds, enjoying a delicious afternoon tea or receiving an invigorating treatment in the Wellness Centre and Spa, the emphasis is on rejuvenation.

Accommodation comprises just six large suites, each with a private terrace, which have been decorated with original artworks and hand quilted French linen. Klein Genot is a wine lover’s paradise set in 20 hectares of vineyards with a cellar stocked with over 5,000 handpicked bottles. One to one tasting is offered on the farm as well as a unique guided vineyard tour on foot or on horseback.
