At the Rietfontein Ostrich Palace cottages, you will find all necessities, some of our guests say, »better as at their own home«. It is home away from home in a completely renovated farm.

It is an inimitable experience away from the civilized world, in the middle of Nature, where someone can listen to the sound of silence, admire stars, and come to peace.

The peacefulness, the views, the relaxing surroundings, and the landscape will give your stay a perfect relaxing pleasure.

Rietfontein is a natural habitat for an abundance of birds and wildlife, so remember to bring your binoculars.

You may also enjoy various walks with the proper footwear and equipment.

Enjoy true country hospitality as well as outstanding local cuisine with many home-grown vegetables, herbs, and aromatic plants.

»Being welcomed as if you are already a part of the Rietfontein Ostrich Farm family is merely one of the many things that Wow you when arriving. The rooms are super comfortable and decorated with opulance and vintage flair. Small things like a sherry and coffee pod machine in the room, makes it just that extra bit special. Breakfast is a delicious spread and the plated 3 course dinner is not to be missed. If you are lucky, you might even be able to join the family for a traditional South African braai. Make sure to add this as one of your stops.«

»We had a wonderful experience staying at Emma’s Cottage on Rietfontein. Beautiful scenery, amazing swimming pool with gorgeous views and excellent food made with interesting local ingredients. It’s a tranquil place where you can forget about the bustle and noise of daily life while still having the comfort of air conditioning, WiFi and a restaurant.«
