If you are seeking a holiday in the mountains away from the noisy, polluted city, these rustic cottages with their prime location and magnificent views of the mountains on a private farm in the Drakensberg on the Sani Pass road, 19 kilometres from Underberg, are for you. The farm of 75 acres borders the Drakensberg Park allowing direct access into the wilderness area for hiking and trail running. This is a working small dairy farm where we hand milk our cows and make a wide range of produce from the milk ; cheese, cream cheese, feta, halloumi, ice-cream, yoghurt. There is a restaurant, free WIFI a display of art and ceramics made on site, a swimming pool, a games room, a nature trail. Activities include hiking, paint on clay daily workshop, wellness massage therapy, yoga class, hand milking a cow, swimming, horseriding, trail running and mountain biking events which begin just 1 kilometre away making the cottages the perfect location for sportsmen and women.
My passion is untouched nature and the wilderness that the Drakensberg mountains offer. Duiker breed on the property and the indigenous gardens attract up to 92 species of birds. I love art in the form of painting and ceramics and sell my artworks in the on site craft shop. I offer a Paint on Clay workshop every day between 10 am and 4 pm. I create all the ceramic pieces by hand on my pottery wheel for guests to paint their own designs. I then glaze and fire their unique items in my kiln to stoneware so they are durable and beautiful.
This is the Drakensberg World Heritage Site, famous for its unique flora and fauna, multitude of hiking trails and cultural history in the form of rock art. Trail running, marathons and mountain biking events begin just 1 kilometre from the holiday homes. The Giants Cup hiking trail begins here.
