Monte Rosa Guesthouse - Luxury Accommodation with lovely mountain views in Rawsonville, Cape Winelands, Western Cape

Monte Rosa Guesthouse was built in 1904 and we value the history of its Victorian heritage. Located in the main street of Rawsonville, it has become a convenient destination where guests can relax in a calm and tranquil environment while visiting the Cape Winelands.  The lavish garden embraces the comfortable guesthouse providing a sense of home and ensures a peaceful rest.

The quaint town of Rawsonville unites with the popular Route 62 hosting gorgeous scenery and surrounded by numerous wine estates. Rawsonville is merely an hour’s drive from Cape Town International Airport, Paarl is 40km away and it’s a 62km drive to the historic Franschoek.

The drive to Rawsonville is a comfortable scenic one through the majestic mountains of the Breede Valley, passing vineyards and the famous 4km Huguenot tunnel. Being the home of some award winning wines, the Breedekloof/Rawsonville area is a natural habitat for adventurous travelers and sophisticated wine connoisseurs. The winelands stretches through Slanghoek, Goudini, Breedekloof valleys, Du Toitskloof, Worcester and Rawsonville. Over the mountains the picture continues with endless vineyards complimenting the countryside of indulgence.   

We are in close proximity to various local wine cellars and other entities offering exciting activities.  You will experience a divine part of nature with endless blue skies, clear water streams,  magnificent mountains, plantations of grape tables, wine estates and the captivating smell of fresh pressed grapes.

Every season splashes its personality through sun, rain, snow and the presence of a refreshing wind.
