DESCRIPTION:

Citrusdal is situated 175km from Cape Town and is the gateway to the Cederberg range. The golden valley is home to soft fruit, citrus, vineyards an rooibos farmers. The village is the ideal place to centre yourself to explore the West Coast, Cederberg Wilderness area and the Namaqualand during spring when the wild flowers are blossoming. The cottage is also covered in wild flowers during this time of year.

The Cottage


The Riverhole Wilderness Cottage is a completely private self catering cottage which is situated 6km outside Citrusdal on a citrus and rooibos farm which is nestled next to a river totally private for your use only in the Cederberg Wilderness Mountains. The Cottage which is next to a mountain river and surrounded with fynbos, Proteas, butter trees, and wild flowers during spring, has an outside braai area which overlooks the river valley.

The cottage is very peaceful and private. It is situated 200m from a gravel road that ends 500m further on at the last farm on the road - Boschkloof, there for the only sounds to experience is the flowing river, birds and the silence of nature.

Enjoy bathing in a hot outside bath, swimming in the river, bird watching, mountain biking on the farm roads and trails, rock climbing on the surrounding sand stone formation rocks and hiking, or just relax in a hammock and enjoy the sounds of nature.
