Samburu Cottage is on the R310, between Stellenbosch and Franschhoek, on the east side of the Helshoogte Pass.

It is situated in the heart of the Paarl, Stellenbosch and Franschhoek Wine Routes, nestled against the mountain.

The scenery is breath-taking, with majestic mountains forming a back drop for the picturesque farms in the valley below.
