Important Information
Roads
Please note: The roads become slippery when wet. We recommend vehicles with high ground clearance. Guests traveling with low vehicles must take extra care on the gravel road – we are in Tonteldoos, 30kms of gravel road from Dullstroom (only 20kms gravel road if you travel via Middelburg/Stoffberg).

Housekeeping services are available on request.

Cellphone Reception
Please note that the cell phone reception on the farm is very poor.
Should you need to urgently contact someone, the landline in reception can be used.
Credit & Debit Card Facilities
Please note that we can accept any card with a pin.
An EFT can be done only if Riverman is listed as a beneficiary before checking in, due to the fact that cellphone reception is very poor.
Self-Catering
Please note that due to the fact that Riverman is a self-catering establishment, and the nearest towns are 30km+ from Riverman, it is advised to buy all your necessary groceries and meats in the nearest town, before you depart, or in the nearest town, before you get on the gravel road. Weekend essentials such as charcoal, wood, ice, and firelighters can be bought at Riverman.
Pet Policy
Kindly read the following policy & information before bringing pets:
Keep in mind that we do have other guests (who might also bring pets) – some who wouldn’t mind a visit from a furry friend, but some who would like to be left in peace. Please make sure that your pet is accompanied at all times. You might also run into a fellow guest with a pet, thus please make sure that your pet is not aggressive towards animals/people and are well socialized. Bring their own beds & bedding and refrain from using our beds & furniture – a fine will be given to guests whose pets have been allowed on the bedding and or furniture. You will be on a farm, thus when roaming outside, ticks & fleas will be unavoidable. Please make sure that you take precautions for your pet to ensure not only their safety but avoid an outbreak of ticks and or fleas in the cabins.
Please respect our other guests by cleaning up after your pet – although we do have staff who clean around the cabins, they are not on the property 24/7. We have free-roaming sheep, chickens and Donkeys on the farm and the cabins are not fenced off, please keep them on a leash when going for walks and outside the cabins as they may chase our animals causing them to get hurt.
Although the lodge is pet-friendly, the inside of the restaurant is not – we do have seating available outside where dogs are welcome. Pets’ owners will be held liable for any damages, injuries or death suffered to property, livestock, staff and other guests or visitors.
Grocery boxes
Have your groceries for your stay ready in your cabin upon arrival.
Please note that grocery boxes must be arranged at least one week before arrival.
