Tough few days in Franschhoek 😔 terrible fires, the whole town without power for about 42 hours. Thinking of all the brave fire fighters and rescue teams working so hard in extreme heat to protect our town. Sadly our trusty generator gave up this afternoon so we've to take the tough decision to close tonight. We've tried to reach all bookings - but with lots of phones out of battery - we haven't managed to reach all guests. Apologies to anyone who gets turned away. Hopefully things return to normal tomorrow. Stay safe everyone ❤️ the French Connection Team
