Description

Merwespont River Life Guest Farm – where farm-style tranquillity meets relaxed celebration.
Situated on a working farm along the Breede River, just outside Bonnievale, Merwespont offers three rustic yet comfortable self-catering houses. It’s the ideal spot for a peaceful midweek break, a relaxed weekend with friends or family — or even a special occasion like a bachelor party, birthday, school or sports group stay, or team event.

With wide-open spaces, river access, braai areas, and farm charm, Merwespont welcomes both those who want to unwind in nature and those looking to celebrate in a laid-back, beautiful setting. Pet-friendly.

Die Houthuis is ideally suited for groups of up to 16 guests, but it also accommodates one to four couples comfortably. Situated right on the banks of the Breede River, this property offers a dormitory-style sleeping area alongside two en-suite bedrooms. A large open-plan kitchen and living area provide ample space, while an indoor fireplace and outdoor braai area create inviting spots to relax. Guests have private river access for swimming, fishing, and kayaking.

Die Wyntenke sleeps up to 20 guests in a stylish yet rustic farmhouse featuring six bedrooms. The comfortable indoor lounge with a fireplace provides a warm gathering spot, and the fully equipped kitchen includes all essentials. Outside, there is a braai area and a large, well-maintained lawn. The property is within walking distance of the river and a popular picnic spot.

A Snoozer’s Cottage accommodates up to six guests, with arrangements available for larger groups. This cozy and charming cottage offers three bedrooms and two budget rooms. The open-plan living and kitchen space opens onto a quiet patio with a braai area and lovely views over the farm. It is ideal for smaller groups or business travellers seeking privacy.

Activities and Facilities include private braai areas at each house, fireplaces for cosy winter evenings, and direct access to the Breede River for swimming, fishing, and canoeing. Guests can enjoy farm walks, cycling routes, birdwatching, and exploring the working farm. Picnic spots are available along the riverside.

Special Occasions and Events are well catered for, with Merwespont being ideal for bachelor and bachelorette parties, weddings with a relaxed farm-style atmosphere, team-building retreats, family reunions or celebrations, and school or sports groups.

Why Business Guests Love Us Midweek is due to the peace and privacy after a long day, uncapped Wi-Fi, DSTV/Netflix, flexible check-in times, affordable rates, and quiet surroundings — perfect for both work and rest.

Private Bookings for Contractors or Work Teams can be arranged directly for affordable rates and flexible arrangements. Die Langhuis and Die Langhuis Annex offer very basic accommodation, ideal for workers needing comfortable and practical lodging. Facilities include uncapped Wi-Fi, DSTV/Netflix, essential sleeping, kitchen and braai amenities, and a simple, spacious layout for team convenience.
