The Rivier House

The River House at Colchester is situated in the heart of the Sunshine Coast. On the one side you overlook the rolling hills and south gate entrance of the Addo Elephant Park, and on the other side the Sundays River and majestic dune fields.

This large family home is just a few minutes stroll away from the river bank and slipway to launch. Sundays River offers entertainment and fun for the entire family. Your choices vary between surf and river fishing or endless walks along the vast beaches and towering dunes. The long and winding river is ideal for all water sport, kayaking or peaceful bird-watching, with many sandy beaches to provide safe swimming and picnicking.

After a day in the sun, you can relax and enjoy this large, modern, tastefully furnished and fully equipped home comprising six bedrooms, four en-suite bathrooms and an outside shower. We can comfortably accommodate up to 14 people, which is ideal for families to share, and linen and towels are provided.

The entertainment and bar area, with a pool table and big screen TV, overflows onto the patio and barbecue area with an outside sound system. The house features fans throughout and heaters for the winter, and there is also air-conditioning in the main bedroom and entertainment area. There are four TVs and three DVD players in the house. For guests' convenience, a dishwasher and washing machine are provided and a cleaning service is included.

The Sundays River runs through the village of Colchester, which is 25 minutes' drive from Port Elizabeth. The towns of Jeffreys Bay, Cape St Francis, Kenton on Sea, Bushman's River, Port Alfred, Tsitsikamma and even Plettenberg Bay are all close by, offering interesting day trips. The world-famous game reserves of Addo, Shamwari, Schotia and Lalibella are also all in close proximity.
