Beautiful place with the friendliest staff. Can’t wait for my next visit.
On the banks of the Breede near Swellendam, where the days are spent outside and mostly in the water.

OUR VILLAS
The villas at Stonehill River Lodge are built for people travelling together. Open-plan kitchens run into lounge and dining areas, floor-to-ceiling windows put the Breede River and the surrounding mountains in front of you from the sofa, and an indoor fireplace takes care of the winter evenings.
Each villa has its own entrance and a furnished patio with a braai, gas in the larger units and wood in the smaller ones. Six-sleeper villas have a private hot tub on the deck. The five eight-sleeper villas share two communal hot tubs on the riverbank. Housekeeping runs Monday to Saturday.
Everything you need for self-catering is already in the kitchen, from cutlery and crockery to a fridge freezer, a microwave, an espresso machine and detergents. There is no shop on the property, so do your shopping in Swellendam on the way in and then stay put.

Beautiful place with the friendliest staff. Can’t wait for my next visit.

Testimonials
If you are looking to get away from the hustle and bustle, head over to Stonehill River Lodge. You can immerse yourself in the tranquility of nature.
Make sure you do some river rafting, swim in the lovely river water and for those who dare, jump off from the 6m cliff into the river. It is an amazing experience.
