Tucked away on the banks of the Klein River, just 30 minutes from Hermanus and moments from the charming village of Stanford, Rivers End Farm offers an authentic escape into nature. Surrounded by 160 hectares of fynbos, wetlands, rolling farmlands, and mountain views, this hidden gem is perfectly positioned for couples, families, groups, and outdoor enthusiasts seeking peace, space, and a slower pace of life.
The ever-changing landscape is part of Rivers End’s unique charm. Depending on seasonal rainfall and water levels, guests may find themselves overlooking a vast expanse of water ideal for canoeing, paddling, and birdwatching, or a fascinating dried pan waiting to be explored on foot. Spectacular sunsets, abundant birdlife, and uninterrupted views create a setting that invites you to reconnect with nature.
The River Cabin Perched above the wetlands with sweeping views across the farm and surrounding mountains, the River Cabin offers a comfortable off-grid retreat for families and friends. Accommodating up to 4 adults and 4 children, the cabin is thoughtfully designed to combine modern comforts with the tranquillity of nature. For larger gatherings, additional tents can be pitched alongside the cabin by prior arrangement at an additional per-person rate, making it an ideal venue for family reunions and special getaways.
The Black Eagle Bus For a truly memorable stay, the Black Eagle Bus offers a unique and adventurous experience overlooking the wetlands. Nestled within a bird sanctuary, this converted bus is perfect for escaping the everyday. Wake up to the sounds of nature, enjoy uninterrupted views from your private deck, and spend evenings beneath star-filled skies.
