PICNICS AT MONT ROCHELLE – FRANSCHHOEK

Pick up a picnic basket at the Country Kitchen and take a stroll with your blanket in hand, through the vineyards, down to the dam, into the rose garden or to the shade of an oak or weeping willow and make yourself comfortable.  Unpack your basket of delights, cold bottle of wine, lay back and relax while you nibble a little, read a book, or have a chat and a giggle with family and friends. If you’re not crazy about blankets, we have tables dotted around the gardens, for those who prefer.

Come and enjoy the relaxed life, like we do at Mont Rochelle….

The Country basket is available daily, the Gourmet and Deluxe baskets needs to be pre-ordered 24 hours in advance. For children to the age of 12 we offer a Country Picnic Basket for R85.00.
