A great opportunity to experience a historic hotel with all the modern conveniences. The Royal is a beautiful, very well maintained hotel in the heart of Riebeek Kasteel. We stayed mid-week (as part of our first visit to the Swartland wine region) so it was relatively quiet. Staff were friendly and attentive yet professional, clearly taking pride in their work. We enjoyed drinks on the veranda in the afternoon and then a delicious well prepared evening meal there as well.

Large well-appointed rooms, brilliant communal area (patio, garden, sorting-room with TV etc) and fantastic host (Anne Marie). Communication with the host in the lead up to the visit was fantastic.

Great location in the Valley and great amenities on site. The cellar and wine tasting on site, overlooking the day with the rolling lawn was amazing for an afternoon of relaxation. We spent ever afternoon in the pool which was also a bonus. Being there mid-week it was very quiet which was great.

The Lodge is beautifully appointed, clean, comfortable with lovely gardens and a pool. Stefan and his staff could not have been more welcoming, friendly and attentive.

This property is located on a prime position. The beautifull garden and pool and privacy was beyond expectation and we as a familly had a blast

Exceptionally lovely accommodation, very peaceful. Food quality excellent. Breakfasts were different, not your usual buffet fair and absolutely delicious. Again dinner was really good, a fixed menu but we didn’t have anything we didn’t thoroughly enjoy. The chefs do a really great job. Our trips out to view the reserve were very enjoyable, we hit a truly beautiful day so saw it at its best. Finally the staff couldn’t be faulted, what a team, they couldn’t do enough for us and everyone was so friendly and helpful

Staff helpful and friendly. Spectacular views.

Great location and all was perfect as usual, will come again.

Raptor Rise is in a very peaceful location with nice views of the mountains. The sunsets ere amazing. If you want to get away from it all this is the place. The room was very clean and bright. Everything you needed although a little compact. There are 3 or 4 wineries within a 5 minute drive and also a brewery/restaurant. Everything very handy if you don’t want to self cater. There is a small bbq outside each room and also a communal large kitchen area. There is a small swimming pool. The chickens are running round in the morning which is amusing.

I loved the decor, the eclectic style of it all. And I really loved Sam, Tony and all the staff - everyone is so friendly! I will definitely be going back there! Great value for money!

The cottage was clean and we had everything we needed. Leon was organised, friendly and efficient which made check in and any communication easy. The walks were amazing and just what we needed.

Stunning panoramic views of the surrounding mountains! The cottage had everything we needed and more - very well equipped kitchen, plus a few extras like a battery light to get through the inevitable loadshedding. Comfy bed, a lovely balcony, spacious lounge area, and being surrounded by nature.

we got an upgrade to a lovely farm cottage- súch a great trest for a hot summer day. the farm Cottage was spacious and had a lovely crib for our baby. lovely sunset atmosphere and great views! the common area was cozy.

We loved the location and the facilities for my husband and i and our daughter. It was our first family trip away just the 3 of us and it was so special.

This was the perfect location for some peace and quiet. The hosts were very welcoming and they arranged some extra days for us at very little notice. The location, up on the hillside gave a perfect view of the valley and the mountains. It is only a few minutes drive to Tulbagh where there are shops and restaurants. The nice garden and the pool made the experience extra special.
