La Petite Ferme is a four-star accommodation, restaurant and wine-farm situated high up on the Franschhoek Mountains.

Known for its world-famous country cuisine, the family-owned and operated restaurant offers guests a culinary experience. Home to staff who have been with the restaurant for over 30 years, it offers warm and personalised service.

Owner Mark Dendy Young has been creating the farm's award-winning wines, such as the flagship Merlot, for 20 years and his one-on-one cellar tour makes it one of the more intimate wineries in the valley.

This latest recognition follows hot on the heels of Franschhoek being appointed a member of The Délice Network of Good Food Cities of the World. Délice is an international network of like-minded cities engaged in promoting the benefits of culinary excellence and good food.
