Where it is
Dassenberg Rd, Franschhoek, 7690, South Africa
Little Willow Brooke is set in a nature-filled, wooded area just outside Franschhoek village. It is close enough to walk or drive easily to local restaurants and wine farms, while feeling sufficiently removed from town to read as a quiet retreat.
