Casetta del Fuoco (Fire Cottage) is a modern, fully equipped converted shipping container "Tiny House". It is situated just 9km outside of the hustle and bustle of Plettenberg Bay and is perfect for a couple or a small family. Surrounded by untouched indigenous fynbos, semi off-grid and green (eco friendly), you can unwind and recharge in the tranquility of the surroundings and use it as a base for exploring both Plettenberg Bay and Knysna (30km away) After we lost our house in the devastating fire of 2017, Casetta del Fuoco was our home for almost 2 years while we rebuilt, hence the name meaning Fire Cottage in Italian. It is quaint and compact, but since we lived there for such a long time, it has everything you need for a fully self catering stay. Experience trendy Tiny House living first hand. Our cottage features 2 bedrooms. The main bedroom has a double bed and wardrobe. The 2nd bedroom has bunk beds and a wardrobe area. There is also a sleeper couch in the lounge area. The small, modern bathroom has a toilet, basin and shower. There is an open plan lounge with a kitchen corner featuring a 2 plate gas hob, microwave, bar fridge and toaster. There is a little deck outside and a braai (BBQ). We have a camp cot available for guests with small babies (please communicate this beforehand so we can set it up for you).
