Framed by mountain silhouettes and immersed in the calm of its own gardens, River House is a spacious Franschhoek heritage home just moments from the valley’s celebrated restaurants, galleries, and boutiques. A Cape Dutch residence reimagined with warmth and modern ease, it offers families and groups a generous home to gather, unwind, and experience the beauty of the Cape Winelands in complete comfort and privacy.

HISTORIC STAYS

FAMILY FRIENDLY

A restored family farmhouse in the heart of the Franschhoek winelands, River House captures the slow beauty of country living.

Three en-suite bedrooms are tucked into quieter corners of the house, offering garden or sea views and an enveloping sense of calm. Filled with natural light and designed to generous proportions, each room becomes its own sanctuary. Furnished with design icons — Le Corbusier’s LC4, Mies van der Rohe’s Barcelona chair — and tuned to the rhythm of the surrounding landscape, Niemeyer is a design lover’s dream and a quiet celebration of coastal living.

Outdoors, a large pool anchors the garden, complemented by shaded seating, deep verandas, and a braai terrace ideal for long afternoons. A games room and full laundry make extended stays effortless. Perfectly placed for wine tastings and mountain walks, River House is a refined winelands retreat with soul.

Sleep is something we take seriously. With hotel-quality bedding, linens and towels, we’ll ensure that you’ll enjoy a great night’s rest, no compromises
