Chai is the lifeblood of India. Served in scant shot glasses from dawn until way past dusk, this beverage is EVERYWHERE you look. It’s in little make-shift cafes, sold from chai-wallahs at every bus station, train station and street corner, brewing in every home.

La Cabrière goes Eco-friendly!

La Cabrière Country House is the first and only Guest house, in Franschhoek which, since September 2011, has been operating its own gray water treatment plant. The treatment plant and its 3 storage tanks of 6000 litres treated clean water each, are underground and invisible to our guests. The water is used for irrigation around La Cabrière and to fill up the dam in front of the guest cottage.

The plant can handle up to 3000 litres of waste water per day, from the toilets, showers, diswashers, washing machines and kitchen sinks. We only use biogradable cleaning agents an washing powder incl.a biogradable bleach. We also provide our guests with biogradable soap. We endeavor to go the extra mile, in order to keep the bacteria of teatment plant alive and healthy, in order to ensure that treated water leaves the plant clean enough to drink. This system is a major ecologically friendly contribution, towards a cleaner Franschhoek and nature conservation as a whole.
