there’s something special about

MAISON

About the Estate

The Valley of the Huguenots in Franschhoek is revered for its world-class wine estates producing superlative wines.

Its fine-dining restaurants settled amidst the verdant vineyards and charming village lanes. Its abounding natural beauty of mountain ranges, nature trails and meandering rivers, equestrian estates and sprawling farm paddocks, surrounded by avenues of ancient oak trees.

It’s a destination that harnesses its heritage with integrity, earnestly yielding its offerings of the land.

MAISON Estate pays homage to its environment with authenticity. Nurturing the soil it settles upon, producing wines that are consciously crafted with skill, care and reverence. Every vine fostered by the family of farm artisans, every grape hand-selected for its signature collection of vintages. 
As the name suggests - MAISON meaning home in French - the estate implores you to settle amongst your own country retreat. Where the rolling vines surround the homestead. Where the fruit orchards lead you down the lane to the award-winning Chefs Warehouse at MAISON.

It’s all yours for the making of a remarkable experience in the Cape Winelands.

Home is where the heart is

Since the acquisition of MAISON Estate by new partners Seb Ackerstaff and Jessie Verdonschot of COCOON design brand (byCOCOON.com) in mid-2023, MAISON has reached new heights. Their signature stamp emblazoned in the bathrooms that hail from their design business.

Access to the gardens and spacious living, entertaining and dining areas are made easy with a gentle wheelchair and pushchair slope. The fluidity of the open spaces are held together with the refined furnishings, signature pieces of art and original features of the barn’s build.
