Grande Roche
Situated on a working farm in the heart of the Cape Winelands, the elegant Grande Roche is within easy reach of Cape Town. The hotel, with its historic manor house, is the epitome of luxury and traditional hospitality. Perched on the slopes of Paarl Mountain, it offers panoramic vistas of the mountains and valley, spectacular sunsets and a tranquil atmosphere.
Much of the estate’s original character has been preserved in the rooms and suites, converted from the original wine cellar, servant quarters, stable and coach house. Crystal chandeliers, elegant drapes and gilt edged mirrors adorn the beautiful restored manor house, and the fantastic Bosman’s restaurant. The cellar is stocked with over 400 different types of wine - an expert sommelier will guide your choice.
The 34 accommodations are individually decorated and furnished. A historic chapel within the hotel grounds provides the perfect setting for an intimate wedding.
