About this property

Fransmanshuijs - Luxurious villa on working farm

Fransmanshuijs is a luxurious hilltop farmhouse, located on a historic farm in picturesque Stellenbosch. Here, amidst vineyard-clad slopes and majestic mountain ranges you will find a true sanctuary where you can just be – a home from home.

Explore the farm on foot, get lost in orchards and the Renosterveld fynbos fields. Hop on your mountain bike and adventure on the local routes or take a swim in one of the farm dams. Here you’ll have the space to roam free, away from the city bustle.

Each of the 4 rooms in Fransmanshuijs has its own unique character; designed with care and attention to detail.

Fransmanshuijs features a fully-equipped and modern farm-style kitchen. With the incredible local produce of the Winelands and the countryside atmosphere of the farm, you’ll find new inspiration to get your culinary creativity on. If in season, we may even surprise you with fresh produce directly from our farm… who knows?

The patio with barbecue facilities and an outside lounge is the place to immerse yourself in the panoramic splendour of the mountains and rolling hills that encircle Fransmanshuijs.

We do have a swimming pool and wood fire hot tub under a beautiful oak tree- perfect for the summer heat.

About the host

Hosted by Izette Carinus

Host profile image
We are an adventurous couple (Piet and Izette) with two kids, aged 11 and 14. My husband is a 6th generation-farmer. If he is not busy on the farm, you will find him on his mountain bike, cycling at the nearby mountains or on the MTB routes on the farm. I am a florist, who loves to create anything beautiful and runs two wedding and events venues and a guest house on the farm. Our home language is Afrikaans and our kids attend a local school in Stellenbosch.

Fransmanskraal is a working fruit farm, (160 hectares ) with our 2 x dogs, 2 x cats, 1 x rabbit and 17 x chickens. We farm with mostly wine grapes, soft citrus, blue berries and plums.

We love cooking and entertaining our friends and families with long lazy lunches on our outside patio, hosting and meeting new people is a great passion of mine. I aa looking forward to welcome you at our beautiful farmhouse.
