Cottage Pie

Tucked away in a panhandle plot, the secluded setting of this charming self-catering cottage has a lovely country feel, even though one is only a few blocks away from several excellent restaurants and the shopping district of Riebeek Kasteel.

Accommodation consists of a bedroom with queen-size bed fitted with quality linen and an en-suite bathroom with bath and shower. Pretty garden with plunge pool and patio with table and chairs.

The heart of the cottage is the open plan living and kitchen area. It has an open, airy feel with exposed, white-washed rafters and two double French doors opening to the front stoep and garden.

The kitchen is well-equipped with all the usual accessories and utilities and has a two-plate gas hob (no oven), fridge / freezer, microwave and washing machine.The lounge area has a comfortable couch and chairs, flatscreen TV with full DStv bouquet and a Jetmaster fireplace. The adjoining dining area has a four-seater table.

Enjoy sitting on the veranda overlooking the garden or relax at the picnic table under the White Karee tree, perhaps with a glass of chilled wine while the braai is going. A neighbour's chicken might even visit, after all, this is country living at its best!Plan to visit our Olive Festival in May or the Shiraz and Art Weekend in September - celebrating the wine, olives, food and culture of the area. Make this your base and explore beautiful beaches, majestic mountains, world renowned wine routes, the Karoo and the Mother City, all within an hour or two's drive from the valley.
