Riverstone Couples Pod

Situated on a working blueberry and pear farm on the banks of the farm dam, Riverstone’s super-modern, ultra-luxurious CouplesPod is a mere 90-minute drive from Cape Town, but offers hard-to-beat seclusion – you’ll feel like you’re a million miles away.

This double container conversion is the ultimate high-end romantic retreat, complete with an indoor fireplace, an oak four-poster bed, a double shower, an oversized outdoor bath, cosy window benches, an outdoor braai, a Nespresso machine and Nutribullet and, of course, spectacular views of the majestic Mostertshoek mountain range.
