RIVERSTILL GUEST FARM
Self Catering Cottages Accommodation
in Groot Marico, Eastern Region,
North West, South Africa
Riverstill is nestled in a deep and secluded valley about 6 km from the
hamlet of Groot Marico. There are 4 guest cottages on the farm, each with privacy in mind. The cottages date back from the first half of the last century and give one a good idea of how folks lived in those days. The biggest cottage can accommodate 7 persons and the smallest is equipped for 2 persons. All cottages have fireplaces for the winter months and verandas outside. Riverstill is a self catering establishment with a central lapa for the use of bigger
groups.
The farm is run organically and with nature in mind. The Marico River runs through the farm and is definitely the biggest draw card with canoes on the water and a nifty swing. Riverstill boasts an 85 % return of guests and co hosts the annual HC Bosman festival. There is a labyrinth to be walked, trails to be hiked; fishing in the river and the stargazing is awesome at night. Guests are
welcome to pick from the herb gardens that grow around the main house to spice up their salads and to sample the fierce locally distilled mampoer.
Please supply your own fire wood and bring own towels. (we will supply towels for overseas guests or as needed)
There is lovely little restaurant in town, Marico Memoirs, please book ahead of time. Visit the Marico information centre and also the Bosman living museum while you are in town.
