Cottage
Our tranquil farm is a 30ha picturesque haven in Magaliesburg. It has an array of fruit trees like kumquat, figs, peaches, grapes, malberries, lemons and naartjies.
With a max elevation of 1558m, you will see the entire town and surrounding areas from the comfort of your cottage.
Enjoy the views as you hike or share hot chocolate with friends around our mountaintop Boma. Additional to our resident pigs, you might also spot Dassies, Hares, Guinea Foul, Springbok and Ducks, grazing the land

Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
If you have submitted a review for a holiday rental property, we may also ask that you provide us with proof of your stay to ensure that your review is attached to the correct rental property.
Holiday rental reviews collected via the VRBO website (formerly Homeaway) and syndicated to the Tripadvisor website are not currently subject to Tripadvisor’s standard moderation processes.

WEEKEND AWAY
very nice place to be and very quiet place.
if you really want to relax and not to be boarder by anyone. this is the place.
I really enjoyed myself with my family.
The one thing I enjoyed the most was hiking.
only 3kilo but was worth it.

About the neighbourhood
Farm land, Mountains and Forest. We are surrounded by neighboring farms. The landscape is mountainous.
We are 25km from the popular historical Maropeng Cradle of Mankind.
We are in a 10km radius of many different local markets, art galleries, shops, farms, pubs, bars and restaurants. Some of these include: Elephant Sports Bar, Black Horse Brewery, and Thatchwood Farm.
Getting around
There are vehicle accessible roads to get around the neighborhood as well as to and from town. We are 13mins away from town. There is a 1km rocky single-lane farm road from the main tarred road to the farm entrance. This farm road can be bumpy, however, most cars can maneuver without a problem when driven slowly.
Access
Car advised
How to get there
There is a 1km rocky dirt road leading up to the farm from the main road. This road can be bumpy after hard rains, but it gives you an authentic farm experience as you feel yourself drifting further away from the stresses of the city. You should be able to navigate the road with any car; just take it slow and enjoy the natural beauty all around you.
