Visitors to River Farm say...

Escape city life

"Cosy cottage that is homey on a rainy day with the indoor fireplace, but on a hot day one can enjoy the outside deck and laze around. Come sunset, a fire in the outside firepit is perfect for marshmallow smoors and great conversations, while fireflies and bright stars add to the ambiance. The sounds of the river and birds chirping enhances that tranquil feel... we would definitely be back to escape city life."

We did not see anyone the entire time
"Lovely spot to relax away from the rat race. Very well appointed and tastefully decorated house with many braai spots, swimming, easy hiking and grade 2 4x4 trail thru the unspoilt valley. We did not see anyone the entire time. Friendly owners. You need decent ground clearance to get there, and 4x4 in winter after rains I'd imagine. Poor cell reception which is always a bonus when looking to disconnect."

Off the grid for a few days
"We had a wonderful time here. The house was clean and neat and we loved sitting on the porch at night under the stars. We went in over new years, and it was HOT, but the house is in shade and there are lots of spots to relax with a good book. The river is not very high this time of year, but we could still sit in the river pools to cool off. We loved being able to completely disconnect and live off the grid for a few days."

Private and peaceful
"Very tranquil getaway, private and peaceful. Beautiful accommodation, beautiful surrounds, clean and spacious. Things to note: There is no electricity (can be tricky for long stays), getting through the river beds is not for the average car. Love that you can bring dogs along. Thoroughly enjoyed it! Thanks for a peaceful escape."
