Relaxing country stay

Beautifully decorated cottage within an easy drive of Plettenberg. Quiet surroundings and a helpful host. The bed was incredibly comfortable!

A Rare Find

10.0

A truly special place. The setting is just beautiful, in a peaceful valley, a few steps from a quietly flowing river bordered by lush greenery. Lots of trees, a private garden, abundant bird life all create a sense of deep calm. The space feels completely removed from the noise of the world, yet it’s just a short drive to restaurants, activities & Plettenberg Bay. The cottage is very comfortable for an extended stay, with high quality bedding & linen. The hosts are gracious, kind and respectful of privacy, and clearly take pride in maintaining such a beautiful space.

The cottage was neat and clean with everything we needed. Beautifully situated away from the hustle and bustle of Plett, but close enough for supplies etc. The bed was really comfy and the mill and rusks provided were a lovely touch. Lovely hike on the farm too!

The hike wasn’t all that well demarcated.. would have been nice to have had a few markers to follow!
