Hotels near Groot Swartberg Nature Reserve, Matjiesrivier

Nice comfortable apartment with beautiful views! The host was also very attentive and responsive. All in all, we really enjoyed our stay :)

We loved it all, from the first minute we stepped on the property. Fantastic managers, and staff. Nice and comfortable rooms with amazing views on the mountains., the whole domain, which is beautiful and manicured, in a nutshell it was absolutely perfect!

Beautiful quiet place in a valley with baboons. Friendly staff and a very warm welcome. We had a fantastic stay and we will definitely be back!

A little bit of paradise in the mountains in the Matjiesrivier region. Belinda warmly greeted us on arrival and was the perfect host, who looked after us so well. The self contained accommodation at the back of the main house was perfect for us.. very quiet with stunning views of the mountains from the patio, and the sky at night was filled with a million stars that were so clear to see. We loved the rural setting, and in particular the fine cockerel and his 4 hens he looked after with dedication and care plus the cats, especially the cheeky Barusca, who was so affectionate and followed us around.. Belinda's lovely touches of care for us included a welcome jar of homemade jam, making bread for us to save driving into town and local fresh "straight from the cow" milk, were a delight. The studio style accommodation works really well, with a full kitchen offering and really comfortable sofa, plus lovely shower and bathroom. And the bed was really comfortable! Despite the chances of load shedding in this area, the apartment is fully prepared with paraffin lamps and solar lights for the infrequent times we were without power, which was always scheduled through Belinda's great communications, so we could work around this.

The Blue Lily Retreat is amazing and and a great value-for-money stay if you want to experience the real, off-the-beaten- track Swartberg mountains. This is a real family stay and the hosts extremely accommodating and kind. Our daughter didn’t want to leave as she befriended the hosts dogs and cat. Highly recommend!

Really friendly and lovely farmer with his family.
