Guinea-Fowl Cottage

ROOM DESCRIPTION

PLEASE NOTE THAT GUINEAFOWL COTTAGE IS NO LONGER BOOKABLE FROM 4 NOVEMBER 2025 ONWARDS. A compact thatched family cottage that suits 2 adults on a double bed and 2 children on bunk beds. This dwelling is traditionally built in the African style, using poles, clay and thatch grass. These natural materials create a structure that is well-insulated against summer heat and winter cold. There are two bedrooms; one with a double bed and the second small room has 2 bunk beds. Feather duvets, electric blankets and bath towels are provided. Swimming towels are available from the Lodge reception. The fully equipped kitchen has a stove, oven, microwave, fridge, kettle, pots, crockery, and cutlery. All guest comforts are taken care of by providing tea, filter coffee, books, games, magazines, wine glasses, a hair dryer, spices, and toiletries. A jug of fresh farm milk from our hand-milked Jersey cows, is in the fridge to make you feel at home right away. Behind the cottage is a little private grassed area adjacent to the unfenced stream that supplies our drinking water. The garden has a braai stand and outdoor seating. Ntshitshi cottage, Francolin and Hoopoe rondavels are close by. If you are looking for a cottage with a log fireplace, mountain views and a Hot Tub, please look at Honeyguide or Aloe cottages. Guinea Fowl is serviced daily at no extra charge. Solar panels on the property ensure an uninterrupted power supply. NOTE: This cottage may be booked for a minimum of 2 people. Please contact us directly if your group is less than 4. If you would prefer to treat yourself to a real holiday, the on-site restaurant offers wholesome meals including breakfast, lunch and a 3 course set menu for dinner. No pets allowed as our land borders the Drakensberg Mountains World Heritage Site.
