Relaxed atmosphere with good gardens. I liked the calmness of the countryside and the good weather. The town of Franschoek is also situated right next to the Museum and could be easily explored by walking

Position and upkeep of the museum is interesting and beautiful. Books and information plentiful - certainly worth a visit. Just include the garden in the entrancfees please.

Reasonable price to get in and we like to get some history about a place so a nice stop as part of the Wine Tram trip. A lot in French but you get a sense of the history which is nice.
