Rickety Bridge Winery

Rickety Bridge Wine Estate offers luxurious accommodation on a Franschhoek wine estate, less than 3 kilometres from the centre of the quaint Franschhoek town.

Nestled against the slopes of the Franschhoek Mountains overlooking the majestic Wemmershoek Mountain range, the 50 hectare wine estate has 27 hectares of vines, accommodation at Basse Provence Guest House and the Rickety Bridge Manor House, and a beautiful tasting room where guests can sample the superb Rickety Bridge Winery wines. Our restaurant, Paulina’s, occupies a stunning location amongst the vineyards – perfect for pensively sipping on our wine while enjoying a meal off the bistro-style menu. We also specialise in weddings – there are superb spots scattered around the wine estate perfect for a wedding ceremony or reception.

Rickety Bridge Wine Estate is a popular destination in the Cape Winelands with a long wine-making history. Although reminiscent of the past, and nostalgic and timeless, this estate is all things new, all things delectable and all things sublime. Lie still in the stylishly-renovated 19th century rooms of our beautiful Franschhoek guest house. With every luxury of a four-star hotel, the three en-suite rooms also offer the comforting pleasures of home. 

Every detail has been considered in this Franschhoek luxury accommodation: classic Cape Dutch furniture, a fire-warmed lounge and country kitchen, dramatic yellow wood-beamed ceilings and pine floors polished with layers of history all contribute to the timelessness of your experience.
