Terry Watkins-Baker
Riverlea is a much loved family home. The two B&B/self-catering suites have been in operation since 1991 and have welcomed guests from all over the world, many returning on a yearly basis. They are both upstairs and have their own separate entrances so guests have privacy but also feel secure with the knowledge that we live downstairs. We are not affected by power outages as we have our own solar, battery and inverter system.
I am passionate about my business and love meeting people. It is very important to me that my guests feel at home and that their stay with is is always a memorable one.
Riverlea is situated in a quiet and safe neighbourhood. Our home is safe and secure and our guests safety is a priority to us. We have secure parking behind electronic gates. We are close to Constantia Village shopping mall, beautiful wine farms and award winning restaurants. We are conveniently situated to the city centre, Waterfront, Kirstenbosch Botantical Gardens, golf courses and beaches.
