Enjoy daily breakfast, private dining, and lounge and bar facilities while staying in the comfort of our 12 rooms and 1 suite, perfect for hosting up to 26 guests (including children, who are warmly welcomed when used exclusively).
The 12 individually styled rooms and suite at Leeu House are luxuriously appointed, each offering a unique charm.
Two Classic Rooms feature intimate terrace courtyards, while two Deluxe Rooms open onto their own private gardens.
Situated separately from the main building, the sought-after Leeu House Suite offers its own lounge area with fireplace, as well as an outside seating area with views of the tropical paradise-inspired Leeu House pool and the surrounding mountains.
The stylish interiors of all options blend contemporary design with Franschhoek’s traditional Cape Dutch heritage, creating a serene and textured ambience. Leeu House also proudly showcases expertly curated contemporary artworks and sculptures from around the world, adding to its distinctive character.
Guests can delight in the pristine gardens, perfect for photography sessions and sunny bubbly receptions.
