Description

Picture sitting on a lovely timber deck overlooking the Drakensberg rolling hills and the meandering Mooi River. In summer, green and lush; sheep grazing, horses galloping. Picnics on the riverbed under the huge oak trees. Fly fishing at one of the trout dams.

In winter, cold with occassional snow-capped mountains. The fireplace blazing, the underfloor heating simmering, and the spectacular dark night sky bejewelled with the brightest stars. A little piece of South African heaven no matter what time of the year.

LOCALITY:

Galway cottage is situated on the Bend Trout and Eco Estate, approximately 20 kilometres outside of Nottingham Road on the well-known Midlands Meander.

Galway cottage is owned and managed by Westville B&B a 5 star Guest House based in Durban.

Galway cottage is one of the upmarket, free-standing residential properties on The Bend. The houses are all stone-clad (hence the origins of the name Galway cottage) with sandstone quarried on the estate; each house must conform to the development specifications. This creates a unified look to The Bend properties.

The house consists of two en suite double bedrooms downstairs and an upstairs loft with a third bathroom and four single beds. The two bathrooms downstairs have slipper baths and big showers, and the upstairs bathroom has a shower and WC.

The house sleeps eight people (two double beds downstairs and four single beds upstairs). There is a large open-plan kitchen, lounge, and dining area leading out through a sliding folding door onto an elevated 65m2 balau timber sundeck. The kitchen is equipped with a dishwasher, washing machine, tumble dryer, microwave, fridge and gas stove.

There is a TV, DVD player and DSTV. No need to bring your own smartcard.

The cottage is ideal for two families of four or a similar configuration.
