The home
Welcome to a charming 4-bedroom home with mountain views, family fun and the ultimate braai setup. It's made for groups who want to relax, explore and entertain together.
The garden is huge. Kids can jump to their hearts' content on the trampoline or swing on the jungle gym while you relax and soak up the views of the Outeniquas. Gather everyone around the braai for an unforgettable cookout.
Inside, the living room has comfortable seating, a flat-screen TV and large windows onto the view. The kitchen has everything you need, including an air fryer, blender and coffee maker. Need to work? The dedicated workspace is surrounded by glass, so you look out at the mountains while you do.
On cool evenings, light the indoor fireplace (firewood is provided). The long dining table and braai sit in a covered braai room across the terrace, looking out at the mountains.
The private cottage has its own entrance and a double bed. Book it on its own for two, add it to the house as a fourth bedroom for grandparents or friends, or book the house without it.

Questions guests ask
What time is check-in and check-out?
Check-in is from 3pm with a self check-in lockbox, and check-out is by 10am.
Which option should I book?
Two people: the cottage. Up to six: the 3-bedroom house. Up to eight, or if you want the property to yourselves: the whole property, which is the house plus the cottage.
If I book the house, is anyone else on the property?
The cottage may be let to other guests. It has its own entrance and private space; the only shared area is the parking. Book the whole property if you'd rather have it all to yourselves.
How many people does the whole property sleep?
Up to eight: a queen room, a room with two singles, a bunk room and the cottage with a double bed.
Is it good for children?
Very. Children are welcome, and the garden has a trampoline, jungle gym and lots of lawn. The three house bedrooms are close together.
What about load-shedding?
Load-shedding is rarely an issue in George these days, but we keep a Jackery power station, gas stoves and rechargeable emergency lights on hand.
Are pets allowed?
We're sorry, but we can't accept pets.
Is there parking?
Yes: parking for two cars at the house, and shaded parking for the cottage.
