Cottage Features
- Solar backup for the entire farm as well as a generator in the event of solar failure ensures that our guests have a much needed break from the country's electricity crisis during load-shedding hours.
- All Units are fully equipped with linen (appropriate for the season), towels (shower and hot tub / pool), crockery and cutlery and everything you could need to pursue your culinary desires on a getaway!
- We supply Montagu-made organic shower / bath gel and hand cream, Karoo-roasted coffee beans, tea, sugar, home-made biscuits and/or rusks and if you book on time, we usually provide guests with a loaf of home-steamed pot bread.
- Every unit has an outside braai (barbecue) with necessary equipment.
- We supply all fire-wood (for indoor, outdoor and hot tub fires) and a starter pack of firelighters to get you going. Also provide candles, bug spray, bug repellent and black refuse bags.
- Each unit (except Sylvia's) has an indoor fireplace (for heating only, no cooking) to warm up with for those colder nights. The Farmhouse units all have air-conditioning, as does James's Honeymoon.
- Definitely no televisions in units to ensure that you are not distracted from the down-to-earth joys of birdsong, the nocturnal screech of the Barn Owls and calls of the jackals or foxes. Spotted Eagle Owls and Cape Eagle Owls are our other handsome predators often seen and heard at the cottages. The mellow call of the Spotted Eagle Owl male, and the higher pitched triple answering call of the female, have enchanted many a guest on the farm.
Communal areas and Facilities
Besides being able to relax in the private space of the varius units, we also ensure that couples, families or groups have other shared areas to enjoy and use.
- a pizza / honesty bar area near the cottages where you can fire up a wood-fired pizza oven (as well as a gas stove / oven if needed for general cooking), grab a few beers, wine, cool drinks, olive oil, olives and whatever jams and chutneys might have been made recently on a self-serve basis. Alternatively, simply relax with friends or family playing one of our supplied board games or darts. There is also an ice machine to ensure your drinks stay chilly! An outdoor braai is also provided.
