Good times and good memories created at Riverbend Self-Catering Cottages.

We had the best time at Riverbend Self-Catering Cottages. If you need a break from the city life and have a feel of nature and a peaceful time I 100% recommend Riverbend. Werner quickly attended to our requests.

Vriendelike gasvryheid in mooi rustige omgewing.

Riverbend Self-catering Cottages is in 'n pragtige rustige omgewing. Die eienaar gaan uit sy pad uit om jou welkom te laat voel, en doen ekstras vir spesiale geleenthede. Het bottel champagne en sweets op bed uitgestal vir huweliksherdenking. Elke laatmiddag kom een van die werkers om kaggel vol hout te maak en steek die kaggelvuur aan. Heerlike atmosfeer. Sonnige stoep by braai-area. As jy wil ontspan en uitrus is dit die plek.

Friendly hospitality in a beautiful, peaceful area.

Riverbend Self-Catering Cottages is in a beautiful area. The owner goes out of his way to make you feel welcome and do extra for special occasions. Got a bottle of champagne and sweets on the bed for our wedding anniversary. Every late afternoon one of the workers come to pack the wood in the fireplace and light the fire. Wonderful atmosphere. Sunny patio at the braai area. If you want to relax and rest, this is the place.

'n Terapeutiese belewenis vir wanneer 'n mens werklik wil rus!

Die verblyf by Riverbend was voorwaar rustiger as wat ons selde voorheen elders ervaar het. Die stilte is onbeskryflik en dit op sigself was terapie vir die siel.

A therapeutic experience for when one really wants to rest!

The stay at Riverbend was truly more peaceful than we have rarely experienced elsewhere. The silence is indescribable and that in itself was therapy for the soul.

Quaint and quiet.

What a lovely little place. If you have all day and nothing to do this is the place to be. With a beautiful fireplace in the room to keep you and your little ones cosy on a cold night and staff that go out of their way to make your stay amazing. Will definitely be back.

Uitstekend, ontspannend en goed toegerus!

Die kothuis was uitstekend toegerus met moderne geriewe. Elke kamer het 'n kaggel wat verblyf in die winter baie gemaklik maak. Die eienaar, Werner, was puik en het agter oor gebuig om ons te akkommodeer. Hoewel daar 'n grondpad is het ons geen probleem gehad om met 'n lae kar die bestemming te bereik nie aangesien die pad breed en goed geskraap is. Ons sal beslis terug wees en kan ons met oortuiging die plek aanbeveel.

Excellent, relaxing and well equipped!

The cottage was excellently equipped with modern facilities. Each room has a fireplace which makes staying in the winter very comfortable. The owner, Werner, was great and bent over backwards to accommodate us. Although there is a dirt road we had no problem reaching the destination with a low car as the road is wide and well scraped. We will definitely be back and can confidently recommend the place.

Lovely establishment, lovely host, lovely time.

We had a great time at Riverbend. It is a "must-return" destination. The place was peaceful and tranquil, the grounds well maintained and the rooms lovely. Werner was very friendly and hospitable, and helped to ensure our comfort during our stay. We would definitely recommend Riverbend as a nice break-away destination. We will definitely be returning!

Fantasmagories!

Werner, die eienaar, is 'n baie vriendelike en behulpsaame persoon. Die plek is regtig skoon en 'n lus vir die oog. Dit is die plek om heen te gaan as jy rustigheid en kalmte soek. Ek sal definitief terug gaan soontoe.

'n Paradys in die bos! Onvergeetlik, rustig en 'n moet vir enige persoon.

Die beste wegbreek van die Stad. Jy word vriendelik ontvang deur Werner en Leonard. Alle basiese benodighede is beskikbaar. Dit is skoon, netjies en stil. Werner gee ook vir jou 'n lys van plekke waar jy besoek kan aflê gedurende die dag. Leonard is 'n ou staatmaker in alle opsigte, dra vir jou hout aan en maak selfs vir jou 'n vuur. Ek sal definitief weer 'n naweek in hierdie besondere plekkie wil spandeer.

A paradise in the woods! Unforgettable, peaceful and a must for any person.

The best escape from the City. You are kindly received by Werner and Leonard. All basic necessities are available. It is clean, tidy and quiet. Werner also gives you a list of places you can visit during the day. Leonard is an old stalwart in every respect, carrying you wood and even making you a fire. I would definitely like to spend another weekend in this special place.
