Auberge Clermont

At the foot of the Franschhoek Mountains on a working wine and olive farm, a 10–15 minute walk from the village high street. This rural Cape Winelands bed & breakfast sits minutes from the Huguenot Monument and the Franschhoek Wine Tram, with Mont Rochelle and La Motte a short drive away. Family-friendly and perfectly placed for winery hopping.

Seven individually decorated guestrooms and a self-catering villa reflect the calm of vineyards and olive groves. Rooms feature minibars, espresso/coffee machines, tea trays, air conditioning and under-floor heating, plus in-room safes and flat-screen TVs. In summer breakfast spills into a shaded courtyard under an old oak; in winter guests dine in the cozy breakfast room. Stroll past plum orchards and a bubbling brook, laze by the pool, or pick up local olive oil and wines from the public lounge.

Two outdoor pools and a lazy-river-style dip alongside an outdoor tennis court and sun-dappled courtyard areas. A welcoming lobby fireplace, poolside lounging under oak trees, and babysitting services (surcharge) add convenience. Wake up to vine-scented mornings and easy access to guided winery visits and valley attractions.

Free high-speed Wi‑Fi throughout rooms and public areas keeps you connected. Onsite perks include free self-parking, laundry facilities and a safe-deposit box.

Full breakfasts are served daily, with courtyard breakfasts in summer and a snug breakfast room in winter. The public lounge stocks the farm’s Sauvignon Blanc and Shiraz plus award-winning olive oil, and the property is a short drive from many top Cape Winelands restaurants and tasting rooms.
