Beautiful surroundings
If you like, however, you can simply spend your days in South Africa relaxing at the Luxury Hotel Grande Roche and enjoying the hospitality at the honeymoon hotel situated in idyllic surroundings on the site of an old farm in the Drakenstein valley of Paarl. The romantic Hotel Grande Roche is set against the backdrop of a rugged mountain range and surrounded by ancient oaks and historic vineyards.
Careful restoration
Originally built in 1707, the building of the Luxury Hotel Grande Roche was damaged in a fire in 1953 and was then rebuilt as a Victorian manor house. In 1991 this house was transformed by its new owner into a honeymoon hotel, without compromising its historic character. After careful research the buildings were authentically restored in 2006 and new buildings in keeping with the old were added.
