Rivergate Stable Cottage is a property for self catering in Stanford for up to 4 guests visiting the Cape Overberg region.

About Rivergate Stable Cottage

Stable Cottage is located on Rivergate Guest Farm, a working farm on the banks of the Klein River, just 2,3km from Stanford. The farm offers accommodation in cottages situated in and around landscaped gardens and are in close proximity to farm animals including alpacas, chickens and miniature donkeys.

Self Catering Accommodation

Homely simplicity and refined elegance epitomise the recently renovated Stable Cottage. This charming two-bedroom retreat features a fully equipped kitchen, dining area and lounge warmed by an indoor fireplace on chilly evenings.

Open double french doors onto your spacious patio complete with braai facilities and a sun-drenched daybed. After sunset, settle into the alfresco dining area beneath a fairy-lit pergola – the stuff that balmy nights in the Western Cape are made for.

The cherry on top is undoubtedly your private wood-fired pool – enjoyed hot or cold depending on your preferences.

Stable Cottage's timeless exterior is enhanced by warm, modern interiors and nostalgic decor, set in a private landscaped garden near the vegetable garden and farm animals. The down-to-earth sophistication of Stable Cottage, makes it the perfect choice for small families or groups of friends travelling together.

Breakfast & Dining

Delicious breakfast baskets from The Eatery are included in our rates and delivered to you each morning.

On Site Facilities

Within the landscaped gardens there is vegetable garden which supplies the Eatery, the various meal baskets we offer as well as a farm shop/deli. The Eatery is open on Fridays and Saturdays for lunch.

The food baskets and charcuterie boards are available on request to be enjoyed on the farm and while relaxing at your cottage. Guests have access to the river for fishing, swimming, canoeing or SUPing.

Attractions

Overlooked by a majestic mountain range, hugged by the Klein Rivier running through it, and just 15 minutes from the ocean, Stanford is a charming and a hidden gem in the Overberg. The heart of the village boasts an original market square, a village green and a miscellany of shops and places to eat.

Quaint Victorian houses dot the tree-lined streets where villagers have time to stop for a friendly chat or a cup of coffee and a delicious piece of cake just freshly baked at one of the local eateries.
