Klipspringer River Cottage offers a tranquil retreat deep within the remote Witzenberg Valley, providing a front-row seat to the rugged beauty of the Western Cape. Positioned at the foot of dramatic mountain ranges and surrounded by lush orchards, this escape is designed for those looking to disconnect from city life. The cottage overlooks the pristine Olifants River, where guests can enjoy direct access to private swimming holes and crystal-clear waterfalls just a short walk from their doorstep.
The unit itself blends rustic charm with modern comfort, consisting of two bedrooms. The master bedroom features a queen-size bed and an en-suite bathroom, while the second bedroom, with two single beds, is paired with a unique outdoor shower that allows guests to bathe under the sky. The lounge area consists of a sofa bed to accommodate younger explorers, providing additional sleeping space that makes the cottage ideal for families. This spacious open-plan living area with comfortable couches includes a fully equipped kitchen, a dining table for shared meals, and an indoor fireplace for chilly mountain evenings.
The outdoor space is a highlight of the property, featuring a wide wraparound patio that frames spectacular views of the surrounding mountains. Guests can spend their afternoons at the built-in braai area while watching the light change over the valley. Whether used as a base for fly-fishing, mountain biking, and hiking, or simply as a place to enjoy the silence, the cottage offers an authentic immersion into the Cape Floral Kingdom.
