A Few 2010 Franschhoek Bastille Festival PicturesWe had such a wonderful time at the 2010 Franschhoek Bastille Festival, last weekend, that we thought we’d share some of the fun with those who couldn’t attended. The Chef and The General Manager having a fabulous time setting the Le Quartier Français and Bread & Wine stands.
Archie, ever the educator, taking some time out to explain to the Môreson team where Mademoiselle Lamb Burgers come from.
The Saturday crowd. It was like this from 12:00 – 18:00. Madness!
Judging by the crowds, and the reports we’ve already received, Bastille is a festival that is going from strength to strength. Well done to everyone who took part and big thank you to the FWVTA – and in particular Darielle – for your excellent organisation.

The Greening of Le Quartier FrançaisWe are constantly tweaking our offering and looking for the right ways to improve it for our guests; and at the same time we are actively reducing the impact these improvements have on our environment. The most recent Le Quartier Français guest-experience improvement has been the renovation of our two Auberge Suites. These two suites now feature redesigned and refurbished bathrooms, lounges and solar heating throughout. This means that when you check into a Le Quartier Français Auberge Suite you can enjoy all the luxuries and help the environment at the same time!
In addition to our new solar heated Auberge Suites the following areas of Le Quartier Français already showcase our greener approach:
At Le Quartier Français we are committed to offering our guests the most exceptional experience and, at the same time, consistently and sustainably reducing the impact that experience has on the environment. Comments: 0

How far would you go?This weekend I will be up in Johannesburg to help look after some out of town visitors. They are here to watch the 2010 World Cup Final and, through no fault of ours, their reservations were misplaced by a Johannesburg Guest House. In fact they’re not Le Quartier Français guests but we recommended the Johannesburg Guest House in question; and sometimes to be successful in our line of work you have to go above and beyond the call of duty.
To ensure that their stay, in Johannesburg, is nothing short of exceptional we have rented a beautiful house and we’ve flown up a fantastic mini Le Quartier Français team. I’ve been included as an multi-functional member of this team and that means that I’ll definitely be involved in the housekeeping side of things. I foresee lots of washing, ironing and bed-making in my near future. Comments: 0
