Wild Bird Cottage – Two-bedroom cottage
Wild Bird Cottage is a beautiful farmhouse-style retreat, perfect for couples, friends, or families seeking a cosy getaway in the heart of the Garden Route. Once an artist’s studio, this private, pet-friendly cottage combines creativity with comfort, adorned with original artworks and offering stunning views of fynbos-covered hills, Rondevlei Lake, and the Outeniqua Mountains.
The cottage features two en-suite bedrooms: one with a luxurious king-sized extra-long bed (convertible to two singles on request), and another with a queen bed plus a sleeper couch suitable for small children. The fully equipped kitchen, lounge, and dining area provide everything needed for a comfortable stay, with Wi-Fi and a smart TV for added convenience.
Step onto the spacious covered deck to enjoy breathtaking views, a gas barbecue, and an enclosed garden complete with a traditional farm fire pit, perfect for magical evenings under the stars. Inside and outside dining areas ensure comfort in any weather.
A short stroll brings you to the shared pool area and scenic farm trails, where you can explore the beauty of the fynbos with your dogs off-leash. Bordering the Wilderness National Park, the farm offers direct access to hiking trails and a serene escape in nature.
Wild Bird Cottage is sustainably powered by solar energy, ensuring a reliable, eco-friendly stay with no loadshedding. Self-check-in is available, and staff are always on-site to assist if needed. Please note that the sleeper couch is only suitable for children.
We had the most lovely stay at the Wild Bird Cottage! It was peaceful, charming, and incredibly welcoming. Our dogs absolutely loved it too - it’s completely pet friendly and thoughtfully set up for both humans and their furry companions. We had the best time and can’t wait to visit again! Love Kelly, Max, Sue, Kev, Charlie and Angus!!🐶
Five star accommodation in the most beautiful setting.
The cottage is perfectly designed, decorated and equipped. A beautiful space with lots of thoughtful details that make you feel really special.
The private garden is lovely, we especially enjoyed the fire pit.
And there's beautiful walking routes starting right at the cottage.
Absolutely amazing accommodation!
Had a WONDERFUL time and made special family memories. We loved the beautiful environment and Diane was incredibly accommodating.
We had a wonderful stay. Sadly we were only passing through and could only stay one night; would have loved to have stayed longer. Lots of attention to detail. Very comfortable and peaceful.
Excellent location. Quiet and peaceful. Enjoyed the trails.
Marshmallows to heat over fire very thoughtful and fun to do.
Definitely book again.
What a gem of place we hope to be back for a bit longer next time.
We had a wonderful stay at Diane’s place. It is perfectly located to serve as a base for exploring the Garden Route.
I have no words for this beautiful farm! Honestly, such a peaceful area with the most stunning views from all around. We really enjoyed our stay, we even extended another night! This is also such a perfect spot to stay if you traveling with a pet, beautiful walks around the farm with a pond even for them to cool off. We cannot complain about anything! We will definitely be back. Thank you for having us!
A absolute gem of a place!!
