Happy Place: Boschendal Estate, Franschhoek

 

The Boschendal Wine Estate in South Africa’s Western Cape has, for us, always been a place to remember with happiness.  Under ancient trees, surrounded by towering mountains and amongst the rolling vineyards, you collect your picnic basket (neatly covered with a check napkin) before choosing your table (draped in crisp white linen) out in the rolling pastureland.  The excellent fare is locally produced, and accompanied by fine wines from the estate.  We’ve visited twice – one of our truly happy places.
