For a luxurious country family getaway on a working farm, to spectacular walks and views of the Goukou river valley, Rietpoel farm can offer all the facilities and amenities you need for your self-catering stay. A quaint country cottage awaits you! Relax in the comfortable lounge, or on the hammocks hanging in the spacious front covered patio. Cool down in the protected estuarine area of the Goukou River when it gets too warm.
The Space
Relax inside next to the deep fireplace when it’s cool, or out on the patio at the large wooden table during the long summer evenings. Easy seating on the patio for breakfasts. Our fireplace in the kitchen keeps the communal space cosy in winter, with the thatched roof ensuring cool temperatures in the summer. Pet friendly, we also offer uncapped wifi and DSTV with full bouquet.
The Setting
Situated at the very end of the navigable part of the Goukou River, enjoy diving into and doing 80 meter river swim crossings at any time of the year. Being in a highly protected area of the river, the kingfisher and fish eagles will enchant you as you set out for an early morning row on the canoe or swim in the misty river.
