Cape Town is one of the most-visited cities on the African continent and with good reason. With a stunning mountain backdrop set next to blue seas, and a vibrant food and drink scene, what’s not to like?

Set aside 10-14 days if you really want to see and do everything. However, if you have less time here are the top places we recommend to visit...

Where to Stay:

La Residence
A luxury hotel situated on Franschhoek and fit for a king. This wine-land estate is nestled amongst the vineyards and fruit orchards in the foothills of the Franschhoek mountains.
Enormous chandeliers, wide verandas and stunning mountain views. Filled with local art, antiques, Persian carpets and 5* services, it’s no wonder the starting price per room is rather hefty. Luckily you can still get a taste of South Africa’s finest by popping in for afternoon tea or an evening drink.
prices from £360 (in low season), La Residence

Babylonstoren
A majestic farm hotel with an edible garden. Just half an hour drive from Cape Town. This authentic but stylish farm is a ‘must-see’. At their white tiled restaurant, they serve fresh juices labelled red, yellow and green. This really is the epitome of farm-to-fork. With a beautiful garden spa involving bamboo massages so relaxing you’ll be sent drifting into space. Babylonstoren also have a their very own Healing Garden with plants intended to heal, soothe and balance the body. Finally cool off with a dip in the rustic pool, which was once the dam where all the borehole water was collected.
