17a Van Riebeeck Street, 7307 Riebeek-Kasteel, South Africa –

The property is walking distance to all the restaurants and shops in Riebeek-Kasteel. It is very well set up with everything we could need in a quiet neighborhood. The beds had electric blankets and were very comfortable.

Renate, South Africa

Beautiful decor, functional, great braai, lovely host

Alexandra, Canada

The cottage had everything we needed. From the necessary cutlery in the kitchen, till the barbeque facilities and not to forget about the pool. Waking up with the sounds of the birds and nothing else was just what we needed. If you need time away from the normal husstle and bustle of every day life, this is the place to go to.

Ceronia, South Africa

This was our second stay at this property, it was excellent last time, but Klaus the owner has added further comforts, good WiFi, airconditioning and a new floor in the living area. We recommend this property highly. Thank you Klaus

Patricia, United Kingdom

Klaus is a wonderful and attentive host. Attention to detail is faultless.

Robert, South Africa

I liked how beautiful the cottage was and i especially liked relaxing next to the pool and using the fire place to have a braai with friends. it is such a beautiful cottage. I wish this was my holiday home

Chrystal, Malta

Great position to town.Very comfortable and lovely to have a pool.

Ivan, South Africa

Fully equipped property. Lovely fireplace. Layout and design amazing. Very private yet owner was available if you needed anything. Town was amazing. Alot of crafts. Amazing wine farms.

Declan, South Africa

It was a very cold and rainy week-end and the fire in the fire place and air conditioner, as well as heated blankets made our stay more than comfortable. We also appreciated the host's concern about saving water! I can just imagine that a visit in summer - with a great splash pool and an open entertainment area (for a braavleis) -- will be just as special.

Isabella, South Africa

Very well situated in town. Own swimming pool and great interior design and decorating. Loved our stay!

With its contemporary industrial design and low energy and water footprints, Blaauw is ideal for the modern discerning traveler.

I have relocated from the city of Johannesburg to this quaint village, and have not looked back! Come and experience the quiet village lifestyle and let me direct you to the quaint and hidden places the valley has to offer...

The quaint village of Riebeek Kasteel is nestled in the winelands of the Western Cape. Vineyards, olive and fruit orchards, and mountain landscapes make this the ideal getaway from the hustle of the city of Cape Town, less than an hour's drive away. Fine wineries, restaurants and art make this a destination to explore...
