    We stayed at Fynbos as a stop over point on our tour of the Western Cape. Riversdale was a nice town, with plenty of shops and places to grab a quick bite. Our hosts at Fynbos gave us a real taste of authentic SA, including boerwors for breakfast....

Fynbos Guest House is in a quiet part of the picturesque town of Riversdale, in the heart of the Fynbos Paradise on the Garden Route. Stylish, affordable and comfortable, set in a huge garden with exquisite views of the well known “Sleeping Beauty” on the Langeberg Mountain Range. The 3 star graded guest house is located in a separate building to the main house providing more privacy. Accommodation consist of six individually decorated double rooms and one single room, a well appointed cosy guest lounge and dining room. Fully equipped and ready to use enclosed Barbeque area by the pool.
Riversdale is a flourishing country town located along the National Road (N2) linking Cape Town - 300 Km to the west and Port Elizabeth - 470 Km to the east. Riversdale's ideal location gives it the advantage of being a short traveling distance to seaside towns such as Still Bay, Gouritsmond and Witsand and is also an excellent base for one-day trips to explore the variety of natural beauty, interesting places, charming 19th century restored houses, breathtaking hiking, hang gliding, fishing and water sports, 4 x 4 trails, and absailing alongside waterfalls. Riversdale, Home of the Sleeping Beauty mountain peak - a well known landmark which never fails to capture the imagination - has earned its name of the Floral Paradise of the Garden Route because of the abundance of indigenous flora - referred to as Fynbos - which covers the mountains and surrounding areas. This floral rainbow is in full bloom throughout the winter months. Riversdale is a town full of surprises and contrast. Experience the serenity of true country life, feel the caress of a fresh breeze, smell the fragrance of fynbos in the sweet country air, cherish the memories of sincere country hospitality. Wh
