LOCATION.
Matjesfontein is a private gated estate with top security measures in Keurboomstrand. There are 26 stands in the estate. The stands are all large with indigenous bush and there is a herd of springbok. Keurboomstrand is located approximately 12 kilometres east of the town of Plettenberg Bay and accessed off the N2 motorway. It is an extremely popular holiday destination and offers a wide and diverse range of properties from entry level to some of the region’s most exclusive and sought-after real estate. Keurbooms has a unique character with many of the original Keurbooms homes dating back to the early 1900’s, which remain remarkably unchanged since they were first built.
Keurbooms has stunning marine life, beautiful coastlines and a forest backdrop that creates a special and unique feel. It forms part of the Hope Spot Programme – a special conservation area critical for the health of the ocean. Keurbooms River Reserve is home to a wonderful display of birds including the Knysna lourie, giant kingfisher, Knysna woodpecker, an array of sunbirds as well as wild pigs, monkeys, blue duiker, mongoose, the Cape clawless otter and antelope.
One can either hike along the river or canoe upstream for the opportunity of a quiet and soulful commune with nature. No power boats are allowed upstream beyond the 4 km mark providing calm, quiet waters disturbed only by the call of birds and the subtle voice of the forest.
