Welcome to Riverstone Private Game Farm, "a catharsis for the soul" (as described by one of our guests). Riverstone is situated 30 km outside of Ladismith in the Little Karoo. Surrounded by the majestic Klein Swartberg and Rooiberg mountain ranges.

If you enjoy nature, and are searching for some peace and tranquility, our rustic secluded cottage is the perfect spot ........
Leave the hustle and bustle of the city behind and come and enjoy a few rejuvenating days soaking up the pure air of the Little Karoo.

  With over 170 bird species, Riverstone is a paradise for avid birders.  
     
   
  Riverstone is the realization of a llifelong dream which we would like to share with others – an ordinary stock farm converted to a game farm. Game species include springbuck, black springbuck, kudu, eland, impala and mountain reedbuck. Most of the small cat species found in Southern Africa occur on the farm naturally. Guided game walks can be arranged.  
     
   
  Riverstone is situated in the middle of the Little Karoo Succulent Biome. Rare species such as Antegibbaeum fissoides, Crassula congesta ssp laticephala to mention a few, occur naturally as well as many other species. A definite must for plant lovers.
