Home! Home! Home! I’ve never felt so in touch with everything; from the house, the room, the lounges, and most importantly the people (host, gardeners, and the house helps). It’s so genuine you’ll feel it. And the attention to details, is beyond me. At the breakfast area the music that played was soothing, literally allowed us to slowly digest. I know it seems funny but I’m telling you this is the place. I loved every moment. The stunning views as well. It’s extremely tranquil, no noise… And the dogs (daisy and Elizabeth) are such home buddies, the moment they see you they realise you’re one of their own and they come running to welcome you. I loved it. I’m definitely coming back HOME! Thank you again for hosting us.

From Protea Room, the river view was stunning, the room was beautifully decorated and breakfast was fresh and well presented. I needed to relax & refuel. I achieved all of that.. Solo traveler's dream

Andre and Toni are exceptional hosts. We had the ladies Bride Tribe stay over for Pre wedding gathering. The vendors (hair dressers & make up) were all allowed in on the day of the wedding. It has the most beautiful views, friendly and accomodating staff with neat, clean and comfortable Rooms. Top Notch !! Well done and thank u once again.

Hey,

Thank you so much for the lovely review. We were so pleased to be able to be a part of your special day and are very glad that it all went according to plan, even with the rain!

Many thanks for our very thoughtful gift, which was definitely not necessary but very much appreciated!

The owners are the sweetest, friendliest people who will, without a doubt put a smile on your face. The B&B interior is stunning, it was lovely to wake up to such a beautiful view of the river and they have cutest doggies who come and say hi. Would highly recommend Riverview Guesthouse - it feels like a home away from home!

Andre and Toni saved our Sunday as we asked to please check in a day earlier. They made a room available for us and we had a great stay. Both are great hosts, who love to share their home with their guests and chat away some hours. Riverview is a modern, very clean and welcoming Guest House. Our room was spacious and well equipped. Breakfast is fresh and the choice is good. And the view across the river is just awesome. Value for money and worth a visit.
