Perched on the edge of the picturesque dam, Coot- and Bullrush Cottage sit alongside each other with spectacular views of the Langeberg Mountains. About an hour and a half from Cape Town, near the Nuy valley, Amandalia farm is home to Saggy Stone Brewery and now 6 unique A-Frame cottages situated within a private nature reserve. Another 2 stone cottages complete the bouquet of accommodation. During the course of 2018, a 22km game fence was completed so that the cottages are now part of the game reserve (hence the reason for no pets allowed). Abundant bird life, some blue wildebeest, black and copper springbok are amongst the wildlife that will be your fellow residents during your stay. An open plan kitchen and living area extends onto a private wooden deck where you can sit with a cup of coffee and relax with beautiful mountain views which stretch for miles while listening to the sounds of busy birds flitting from bush to bush. Each cottage sleeps a maximum of 6 adults comfortably, with all the modern conveniences such as solar power, private braai and hot water and an extra bedroom with 2 single beds. Advertised Rate is for 2 guests, thereafter additional guests are charged at R300 per person per night to a max of 6 guests in total) A wood fired hot tub on the deck of the cottage is a perfect place to watch the stars and listen to the sounds of nature. It is one of two exclusive units at the dam - each, unique and offering privacy and memorable experiences. The 2 cottages are close enough for security but not too close to disturb your privacy. The third cottage is neatly tucked away behind a hill – this one is called Solitude and that is what it promises. Lookout Cottage and Sundowner Cottage are the other 2 A-frames, and higher up in the Kloof are 2 stone cottages called Oaktree and Kloof. Lastly, there is a 4x4 access only cottage called Mountain Top sitting on the upper part of the fence line. Small luxuries of tea/coffee/sugar/olive oil and balsamic vinegar are provided. The cottages have 12V power with 2 normal plug points for charging devices/laptops. There is a USB charging point in the sitting room for cell phones and tablets. 1 bag of wood per night is supplied to get the hot tub going, as well as firelighters, braai grid and tongs. It is recommended to bring wood for the braai. We allow for late check out on Sunday's should there be no bookings for the Sunday night. Check out times will be confirmed closer to the time.
