Nestled in the beautiful tulbagh valley, situated on the eminent Rijk’s wine farm and home to Rijk’s Private Cellar, the exquisite five-star Rijk’s Country House offers travellers and day visitors an exceptional experience in both service and facilities with remarkable attention to detail and graceful elegance. Restored Cape Dutch-style buildings are the framework in which Rijk’s Country House offers 10 superior rooms, two luxury rooms and three two-bedroomed family suites, each decorated in country style, overlooking a beautiful lake and surrounded by 1 000 Iceberg roses, rolling lawns, views of the majestic Witzenberg and Winterhoek mountains and beautiful vineyards.

International and traditional cuisine coupled with impeccable service and award-winning wines can be enjoyed on the Iceberg Terrace or in the intimate Que Sera restaurant. Executive Chef Rory Pelton’s delicious menus are sure to tantalise your taste buds. A wide range of activities can be enjoyed, from swimming in or relaxing beside the pool, a gentle game of boules, walking among the hundreds of roses or settling down with a book beside the fire in the lounge. Or, for the more active, hiking, fishing, birdwatching, horseriding or mountain-biking and, in summer, seeing the grapes being harvested at night. An all-encompassing and luxurious experience, Rijk’s Country House is sure to leave you feeling rejuvenated, relaxed and secure in the knowledge that you have discovered a little piece of paradise.
