About RiverStill
Six kilometres from Groot Marico, nestled in a deep valley, lies the tranquil RiverStill guest farm and through its heart flows the untainted waters of the Marico river.
Our story
Here the accent is on tranquillity, solitude and reconnecting with nature. A symbiotic relationship exists between lush nature and organic citrus groves fed by an old canal. This is a true birders haven with over 360 species in the vicinity and more than a hundred spots on the farm. River Still annually co-hosts the Herman Charles Bosman Festival were locals and guests enjoy music, drama, good food and each other's company. Around the main house grows a profusion of organic herbs which you may use to spice-up your salads or food.
