### The Cockpit, Franschhoek Village

The Cockpit, Franschhoek – sleeps 2  
This charming bolt-hole in the historic heart of Franschhoek, welcomes you with its warm village-cottage charm – its comfortable, over-sized sofas; mezzanine bedroom and bookshelves loaded with novels, cookbooks and travel guides, will have you feeling instantly at home and relaxed.  
  
Opening out onto a lush-green, secluded, townhouse-style garden with splash pool, this cosy one-bedroom cottage sleeps two people in a King-sized bed, tucked into the eaves. Decorated in a wash of creams, blues and yellows, reminiscent of an English cottage, with portraits of the owner’s days as a glider pilot, this little cottage is a quiet, comfortable and unpretentious base from which to explore Franschhoek’s sophisticated restaurants, galleries, markets and shops – which are all just up the road.
