Cottage One at River Bend offers: An en-suite bedroom, open-plan lounge, kitchenette, a covered front verandah and a private entrance. It is one of four charming, recently-renovated cottages in a beautiful, historic Graaff-Reinet building. This is where old-world charm meets modern-day comfort. Secure, off-street parking is offered within the property, a 30 second's walk away around the street corner. There is a designated bay with room for a vehicle and a "Venters" size trailer. For those who prefer on-street parking this is right at the cottage front door. To view the three other River Bend cottages which have different configurations please see the separate listing called River Bend Cottages. ​
Situated in a peaceful residential area it is an easy 10 minute walk or 3 minute drive to restaurants and shops. Take a gentle stroll from River Bend along the shady, tree-lined streets of the town, admire the Cape Dutch, Victorian and traditional Karoo homes and simply relax into the gentleness and peace of the Karoo. ​
