The magnificent wilderness with refined agricultural aesthetic

Rijk’s Country House is a charming retreat, located in South Africa’s fourth oldest town, Tulbagh, away from the usual tourist paths.  Restored in the traditional Cape Dutch style, Rijk’s serves as an access point to numerous wine routes, picturesque drives, and agricultural villages, including Wolsley, Ceres, and Gouda, each offering an own array of attractions.

The Obiqua, Winterhoek, and Witzenberg mountain ranges encircling the Tulbagh valley offer a picturesque backdrop for daily activities including horseback riding, hiking, and cycling trips.  Revisit the pastoral tranquility of Rijk’s, dine at Governors (the on-site restaurant), partake in a wine tasting at the exclusive cellar, or unwind on your room’s private patio while savoring the serenity of the lush valley with a cool Chenin after a hectic day.

Rijk’s features 10 Luxury Rooms, two Superior Rooms, and three Family Cottages, offering various accommodations for couples or families desiring a rural retreat.  All rooms are expansive, minimalist, and sophisticated, featuring 100% cotton linens, a large bathtub, and all the amenities anticipated of a five-star hotel.
