Welcome to Happy Valley! We are a family owned self catering guest lodge situated on a small citrus farm in the heart of the Franschhoek Winelands. Two rivers border the farm, the smaller Kastaiings River and the Franschhoek River which joins the Berg River about 4kms downstream. We are surrounded by mountains and boast exceptional views.
We are situated 5kms from Franschhoek and are a stroll away from the famous La Motte and Môreson vineyards. Join in our harvest and pick your own clementines in season!!
