RIVER MANOR

The inviting swimming pool and attractive house

The view of the house from the street

Historic River Manor is set across from the banks of the Eerste River on the quiet oak-lined Avenue, a mere two minutes stroll from Stellenbosch village centre with its museums, street cafes, restaurants and galleries. Stellenbosch is South Africa's second oldest town (after Cape Town), having been founded by (and named after) the second Governor of the Cape, Simon van der Stel. It is a wonderful little town, with oak-lined avenues (the trees were planted in 1679 and are national monuments) boasting some of South Africa's finest historical dwellings and excellent examples of Cape-Dutch architecture, as well as buildings from the Batavian, Georgian, and Victorian periods. Dorp Street, the 'Braak' (village square), and Stellenbosch Village Museum are focal points.



The cozy lounge inside the house


The 8 spacious en-suite rooms at River Manor are furnished according to a Cape colonial theme, stylishly decorated with antiques, and combining old world charm with modern convenience. Enjoy poolside breakfasts before setting out to explore Stellenbosch and its surrounding winelands.




Hosts Johan and Leigh look forward to welcoming guests to their gracious home with traditional Cape hospitality and personal service.
