A beautiful little gem perched on the outskirts of the quaint Lowveld hamlet, Whiteriver. Once the original homestead of a local avocado farming family, this charming small hotel has been entirely designed to offer luxury travellers an enveloping atmosphere of boutique style and proportions. The understated elegance in a modern baroque style complete with ornate chandeliers and mirrors combine to create this luxury haven. Chic boutique finishes, a sparkling swimming pool with squashy poolside seats, and the cool haven of formal colonial gardens, all combine into typical boutique-hotel hallmarks.
Situated approximately 10 minutes’ drive from Kruger Mpumalanga International Airport and only 3.5 hours’ drive from Johannesburg, Country Boutique Hotel is easily accessible. The gorgeous double volume entrance leads into the cool inner sanctuary offering a tranquil lounge, light and airy dining room which opens onto expansive open verandahs. The table d’hote menu will offer guests a relaxing dining experience accompanied by a great wine selection.
Understated elegance abounds with the subtle use of light fabrics with splashes of bright colour, glittery chandeliers and white linen for evenings.
The elegantly appointed rooms boast sleek materials and stark palettes with bold color splashes decorated with individual style. Two of the Superior Rooms have open plan bathrooms. Standard facilities in all rooms include: Air-conditioning, satellite TV, telephone, internet connection, hairdryer, tea and coffee station, safes, mini-bar (stocked on request), luggage rack and bath consumbales.
