Tired of the rat race and in need of a break? Come and relax on the farm Bergrivier where body and soul reconcile. Experience a true eco-retreat where you can let go in one of the most tranquil settings nature has to offer. This retreat is conveniently located in the scenic Eastern Cape, only 50 km west of Port Elizabeth, and close to the N2. The very popular beach resort,
Jeffrey's Bay, is
only 35 km away to the southwest and it is situated on the world-famous Baviaanskloof route, close to the hamlets, Loerie, Hankey and Patensie.

Catering: All our facilities are provided on a self-catering basis. However, at an additional fee, breakfast, lunch and/or dinner can be pre-arranged as required.
This is a paradise for birdwatchers. The beautiful Loerie can be seen quite often and at night you will hear the call of the Night Jar. An added bonus in the darkness is the whistle of the Ribbok. Or you can enjoy the clear starlit sky above. You can take a hike in the veld or kloof, where you can see the endangered little fish, the Redwinged Minnow in the clear mountain stream. Crown Eagles nest in the kloof
and are often seen soaring
over the hills. The distinct call of the Fish Eagle is occasionally heard. For the more adventurous, mountain biking in the adjacent Longmore forest can be arranged.
