Agincourt Guest House is situated in the beautiful Franschhoek Valley, at the foot of the Middagkrans Mountain; Agincourt is an idyllic country retreat. The centre of Franschhoek, with its world famous restaurants, wineries, and shops, is a gentle stroll away down a tree - lined country lane. Rolling farmland, vineyards, valleys, and mountains, make for a breath-taking backdrop.
In the 1 1/2 acres of grounds, dotted with shady trees - geese and ducks swim on the dam, whilst the resident dogs and cats snooze in the sun.
Agincourt is the perfect place to relax, lounging by the pool with a glass of wine, and watching the sun set against the mountains.
All the guest bedrooms are very spacious, a minimum of 35 square metres, and have ceiling fans and heating, and all bathrooms have heated towel rails. We will be delighted to help you plan your stay with us, from restaurant bookings to wine tours.
"My family visited Agincourt in December 2011. The hosts were extremely warm and welcoming. Our rooms were inviting, clean and very comfortable. Breakfast was top-notch. Our children, aged 7 and 9, were made to feel very welcome! We were advised on which restaurants to eat out at, wine farms to visit and on which outings would entertain our kids. Well done to Agincourt, they made our visit one which we would definitely like to repeat!"
"Our stay at John and Sheila was extremely enjoyable. The setting, service and accomodation was top notch."
"Had a great stay in this lovely comfortable home from home guest house. Hosts friendly, helpful and hospitable. Would definitely come back."
"My boyfriend and I were really pleased with our stay there. Everything exceeded our expectations. We got an upgraded room as they weren't very busy. The room, bathroom and the entire place was spic and span with everything you could ever hope for - even a heated duvet. They cleaned our room every time we went out. The owners were also very kind in answering all our questions about where to go for wine tasting and food - even booked the places for us. On the last day, they let us stay way beyong check-out time so that we could watch the royal wedding. I could not recommend this place more."
"Our three night stay was wonderfully restful in tranquil Franschhoek. Sleeping in utter comfort and safety with our windows and shutters wide open all night, to breath in the fresh mountain air and waking to the soothing sounds of the country. Breakfast includes fresh farm eggs from the resident chickens. Agincourt is the quintessential idea of Franschhoek. Pastoral views from the French shutter windows of a big comfy bedroom. Situated near enough to the town, yet far enough from noise ... more"
"We arrived late but were made very welcome and really enjoyed our stay and should we need another booking we will not hesitate to contact you.Many thanks."
"Enjoyed the lovely neat room. Enjoyed a delicious breakfast and the hostess and host were just charming."
"We had a wonderful time. Shiela was a great hostess. Stunning views and very clean. Both Shiela and Jhonn were very friendly. Would recommend this place to anyone."
"Sheila was extremely welcoming and accommodating. We arrived to rooms that are huge with our own personal balcony and en-suite. The accommodation was spotlessly clean and Sheila was only too willing to meet our every need. The property includes a swimming pool, large garden and a fair sized pond. Agincourt is right behind the monument and so close to all the ongoings of Franschoek. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and felt well rested in Sheila's tranquil haven in the foothills of the mountain."
"The location was absolutely stunning and Sheila always went out of her way to make us comfortable. It was like home away from home. We soon became part of the family and the chickens, donkeys, dogs and cats gave us a great deal of pleasure. We can highly recommend the guest house and would definitely return in the future. "
"We had a very relaxed time, we had 6 nights and Sheila could not have been more helpful, she would offer to take/pick us up from restaurants etc etc and nothing was too much trouble. The pool was more than a plunge pool, the addition of dogs, donkeys and the free range chickens,seemed more little britain. Staff were wonderful. Thank you!"
"We had a great weekend. Everyone was very friendly and helpful and made us feel very special.Loved the farm and the animals."
"A beautiful house with exceptionally well furnished accommodation, in an excellent location within walking distance of Franschhoek. The Proprietor, Sheila, was kind helpful and very welcoming, offering lifts to and from the local restaurants. The standard of the accommodation and service could not have been better in a 5 star hotel.Agincourt has several resident pets, from dogs to donkeys, which add to the charm ."
"We as a family enjoyed the stay, our hostess went out of her way to make our stay pleasant, thank you from all of us"
"Sheila was a fantastic hostess and the place was lovely. The setting was stunning and views incredible! We had a wonderful time and would recommend this place to anyone. Overall, very friendly atmosphere from both Sheila and all her dogs and animals! "
"We greatly enjoyed our stay in this unique guest house where the owner could not do enough to make us feel welcome.It helps if you enjoy the company of dogs but they are not intrusive and greatly enhance the feeling of security."
