Tucked into the mighty Swartberg lies a lush oasis called Kruisrivier Guest Farm, where three streams meet before braving the Little Karoo's thirstland. Rich in nostalgia, where visitors can relax and enjoy the peaceful murmur of running water while kids splash in cool pools, Kruisrivier offers Karoo hospitality, tranquility and an experience of yesteryear.
The appreciation of the past is evident in the way of reusing old things in fun ways. The Oregon pine seat from the farm's former long-drop toilet has been scrubbed and varnished, and is now a rustic frame for a mirror in the bathroom of one of the cottages. Cribs that horses once ate out of in the old stables are now bunk beds for kids, complete with stirrups to climb up into them.
The family's Nagmaal wagon, made of stinkwood and yellowwood, is parked in another cottage as part of the décor, while hooks for towels are made of olive wood cut on the farm. Every cottage has its unique style. Kruisrivier is a fun, friendly getaway that your kids and the kid in you will enjoy.
