| |  | | A mere 30-minute drive from Cape Town, the towering blue mountain ranges and lush, green valleys of the Winelands area make for scenery that inspire artists, while the fertile land – as its name suggests – produces some of the finest wines in the world. With a selection of more than 200 cellars, it is the primary wine-producing region of South Africa, and a proud tradition initiated by early European settlers. Experience this rich historical and cultural heritage while visiting quaint villages. The mild autumn weather brings with it scenic experiences of earthy colours, while winter often sees the mountain peaks capped in snow. It’s a world of wide open skies, olives, honey, hand-made cheese, mountain passes, crafts and indigenous ‘fynbos’ (bush). With activities such as game viewing, 4x4 trails, abseiling, rock climbing, fly-fishing and horse-riding, the Cape Winelands has a memorable adventure to offer anyone, no matter what the season! |  | Franschhoek Inn: - Winelands, Cape Town Built in 2003, it is situated in the charming town of Franschhoek in the Cape Winelands, nestled between wine farms and imposing mountains.
