Springfontein Cottages
Riverside Suites
Nestled under majestic Milkwood trees, our Riverside Cottages offer three suites in an authentic South African house with thatched roof on the Klein River side of our farm.
The historic cottage has recently been renovated with extreme attention to detail, trying to preserve it’s ancient charme.
One of the Estate’s two jettys to the Klein River is in walking distance.
Two of the suites each offer a large bedroom with a breathtaking view on the Maanskynkop mountain, a comfortable sittingroom and a large en-suite bathroom (with shower and bathtub).
The third suite additionally features an open living plan, a nice fireplace for the cooler days, a shaded patio for a relaxing time, and a private swimming pool.
Milkwood Cottage
Hidden in a Milkwood forest, this spacious cottage offers one large en-suite bedroom, an open plan sitting area, an inside fireplace for the cooler days and a pleasent outside patio for the warmer days.
The big swimming pool is in walking distance while intimacy is guaranteed.
Just like the Fisherman’s cottage, our Milkowood Cottage offers the opportunity to experience a typical South African outside shower.
The Cottages are suitable for families who would like to stay together, as the three rooms can be connected optionally. Easch unit sleeps two guests.
Fisherman’s Cottage
This beautiful, cute and initmate cottage was one of the first homesteads on the farm. It maintains the style of a historic fisherman’s cottage, as they are typically found within the Western Cape area.
The cottage has been renovated to offer all the comforts of the modern world in a cozy and romantic one-room unit. It has an open fireplace to keep you warm during the cooler days and sleeps two guests.
Also, the cottage offers the opportunity to enjoy a typical South African outdoor shower.
As this very cottage perfectly describes the humbleness we are trying to reflect in Springfontein’s philosophy, from the very first days on it has been chosen as the symbol within our Estate’s logo.
