We have stayed here on numerous occasions and it's is always a pleasure to be welcomed back by Marlicia, Louis and the team who maintain the house and grounds immaculately. We wouldn't consider staying anywhere else whilst in Franschhoeck except Grand Plaisir of course. Peaceful location a short easy walk to the bustling high street with its restaurants and bars.

Wonderful and Luxurious
We arrived to find an emaculate luxurious cottage, separate from the main house, which was also surrounded by a beautiful garden.
The king size bed was firm,
comfortable, and the linens of the highest quality. The separate living room and adjoining kitchen were spacious and relaxed. The owmere’s attnetion to detail was obvious throughout as revealed in the flowers situated in each room and quality provisions of coffee, teas and sweets along with the welcome bottle of wine.
I would suggest to all that a visit to South Africa’s Winelands include staying here. If one is considering whether to stay in Stellenbosch or Franschhoek, definitely choose the later and in particular stay at the cottage of Petit Plasir.

Charming host, well equipped cottage, gorgeous garden and pool. Quiet location on edge of village.
As above, plus lots of little extra touches, cottage serviced daily. Safe and secure, walked in and out of town each evening. Would like to return and will recommend to friends and family.

About the host
Hosted by Marlicia Meyer
I'm a "home maker" - love to cook, bake, decorate, sew and garden, therefor very fortunate to do all the things I love - all day long. Things I can't live without: my family and friends I love to spoil my guests by giving them more than they expected, try to give them a home away from home. My motto? Live for the little pleasures!
Why they chose this property
My husband started working in the fruit packing and exporting business. Raising our 3 children in this beautiful valley was just a blessing.
What makes this property unique
Franschhoek is still this small country village, with the best food and wine in the world, just on our doorstep.
