The Cottage
The Cottage @ The Yard sleeps 2 -4 and is a self-catering unit sporting a cosy outside barbeque area. The unit incorporates 1 bedroom with a comfy Kingsize bed and en-suite bathroom. Two single beds in the lounge easily accommodates two extra adults/children. With an air conditioner for the swelling hot summer days and a cosy fireplace for our winters, it’s a great destination all year round. The spacious open plan kitchen/lounge area and outside braai adds to the unique ambiance. With bigger groups, the catering will be done at The Cottage. It is situated at the back of the property, is pretty private and has a view of the beautiful mountain. The Cottage is the ultimate unit when bringing your pets. It is fenced in, so that you and your pets can relax outside, without being concerned that they will bother anyone else on The Yard. There is secure parking right next to the unit enclosed in The Yard.
