At Ascot Tours, regular site inspections are an important part of ensuring we continue to recommend the right properties and experiences for our travel partners and their clients. Our latest visit took us to Rickety Bridge in Franschhoek, one of the Cape Winelands’ well-known wine estates.



Following a recent site inspection, our team was pleased to see the ongoing improvements and additions that continue to enhance the guest experience. From the accommodation upgrades to the introduction of new recreational facilities, Rickety Bridge offers a well-rounded stay for travelers looking to experience the Winelands from the comfort of a working wine farm.
The estate’s accommodation provides a comfortable farm stay atmosphere, allowing guests to enjoy the surrounding vineyards, mountain views, and relaxed pace of life that Franschhoek is known for. Whether travelling as a couple, with friends, or as part of a larger itinerary through the Western Cape, Rickety Bridge fits seamlessly into a Cape Winelands program.

Guests can enjoy a variety of facilities and activities during their stay, including:
- Farm Stay and Manor House accommodation
- Wine tastings
- Wine blending experiences
- Wine fault sensory experiences
- Vineyard walks
- Cellar tours
- On-site restaurant
- Padel courts
- Swimming pools
- Wine Tram pick-up point

One of the highlights of our visit was seeing the new padel courts, adding another activity for guests looking to combine wine, food, and outdoor recreation during their stay.
With its combination of accommodation, wine experiences, dining, and leisure facilities, Rickety Bridge remains a strong option for clients wanting to explore Franschhoek and the wider Cape Winelands region.
