Our cottages (carefully restored laborer cottages) offer simple elegance, taking guests back to bygone days but without compromising on comfort. FISH EAGLE Cottage has two bedrooms; one fitted with a double bed and the other with two single beds (which can be converted to a king-size bed on request). The delightfully quaint kitchen is fully equipped and the original huge fireplace makes the lounge/dining area very cosy. The indoor bathroom, which contains a toilet, shower and basin, leads off the main bedroom (i.e. guests in the 2nd bedroom will need to enter the indoor bathroom via the main bedroom), but the cottage also has a full outdoor bathroom that includes a shower and bath-tub with spectacular views. Other outdoor features include a comfortable patio, braai (barbecue), fire pit and a 4-person wood-fired barrel hot-tub in which to soak and take in the 360 degree mountain views. Wood for the braai and hot-tub is provided at no extra charge. The yelping calls of the Fish Eagles can be heard daily and their fishing tactics observed from the koppie on which the cottage is situated. Fish Eagle and Pale Chanting stand back-to-back to each other and are are ideal cottages for couples/families/friends traveling together. All our cottages are small as they are converted laborer cottages, which makes them cosy and comfortable. Guest cottages are situated 200m from the main farmhouse and not visible from there. Each cottage has its own facilities, including braai/barbecue and an outdoor area to relax. All guests have access to: - the pool and Lapa (where braai/barbecue facilities may also be used) - the wood-fired hot tub next to our dam (may need to be booked in busier times) - picnic / seating / braai/barbecue area next to the dam - the dam itself and our canoe and kayak - a pizza oven at our "pizza bar" - a 5km trail run on the farm - the entire farm...guests are welcome to go for walks around the entire farm The main house and garage are private as is the barn where tractors and farm equipment is stored for safety reasons. Please feel free to message or call us should you need any assistance during your stay - we are happy to help. The community is a farming community and as such a close-knit friendly one. The village of Montagu is 8km away and is the second oldest preserved historical village in the Western Cape province. Historical self-guided walks and bicycle tours can be taken in the village and many hiking trails start there. Montagu is known as one of the most outstanding mountain climbing destinations in SA due to the quality and number of climbing routes available. There are also various mountain biking and trail running routes for those who prefer a more physical visit. The mineral and hot springs is 14 km away from our farm and popular during summer and winter. Many famous wine farms are situated in a 40 km radius and self drive visits to cellars and wine tasting are popular activities. Guided tours are available. The general atmosphere is rural and relaxed but vibrant at the various venues. No public transportation is available, unless guided wine tours are booked for wine tasting and pairing. As the farm is 8km away from the town of Montagu (about a 6 - 7-minute drive), a vehicle is generally required in order to access the town and it's shops and restaurants. All of our cottages offer very comfortable beds, quality linen, indoor fireplaces, well equipped kitchenettes, outdoor barbecue / braai areas as well as private spaces to relax and enjoy the quiet. Some cottages have wood-fired hot tubs. Each cottage that has an inside bath-tub is equipped with an outdoor shower and each cottage that has an inside shower is equipped with an outdoor bath-tub; with the exception of our Honeymoon Cottage that has both an indoor shower and bath-tub, both with spectacular views. The farm stay allows for guests to remain on the farm and make use of our trails, dam, pool, hot tub, pizza bar/oven or private areas at each cottage to relax and unwind; alternatively it is also close enough to Montagu and surrounding towns to get out and explore the area.
