AREA INFORMATION
Situated in the charming Het Land van Waveren valley, encircled by the magnificent Waaihoek, Witzenberg, and Waterval Mountains, and occasionally blanketed in snow during the winter, the charming tiny community of Wolseley is just 90 minutes from Cape Town and 0ffers easy access to several charming towns. Wolseley is just 6 km away, Tulbagh 17 km, and Ceres 21 km. If Wolseley's location on Road 62, the world's longest wine road with its picturesque crossings through mountains, rivers, vineyards, and fruit orchards, were not already enough of a lure, the town could be reached via one of four routes.

Riverbank is also a short 38 km drive from the breathtaking Matroosberg Nature Reserve, a haven for outdoor enthusiasts.
