DESCRIPTION
The country road winds past vineyards and orchards to Klippe Rivier, a magnificent tranquil Cape Dutch Country House, circa 1820, on the outskirts of historic Swellendam, two hours from Cape Town and the
Garden Route.
A warm, friendly welcome awaits from Taffy, the Corgi, and Magic the black cat. Once the family home of Free State Presidents Steyn and Reitz, recall the gracious past with its spacious voorkamer and reception rooms where gleaming yellowwood floors enhance beautiful antiques. The original ‘waenhuis’ and stables have been converted into luxury air-conditioned bedrooms preserving much of the original ambience.
Downstairs, spacious bedrooms each have an open fireplace, dressing room and generous bathroom. Loft rooms upstairs under thatch offer mountain views and private balconies. A secluded cottage is ideal for honeymooners.
Relax at the salt water pool and enjoy the company of owls in the oaks, or spot water birds on the dam from a shady bench. Visit the Drostdy Museum, Bontebok Park and nearby wine routes, or the southernmost tip of Africa at Cape Agulhas. Horse riding arranged.
At the end of the day return to the peace of the farm and sample excellent country cuisine and Cape wines. Awarded Fair Trade in Tourism SA (FTTSA) Trademark. Two nights recommended. South Africa’s first TGCSA 5-Star Country House.
