Willowlea Cottage is set in a beautiful garden, located centrally in Underberg in the Drakensberg mountains, boasting a calm, welcoming and tranquil atmosphere. This cottage is perfect if you're needing to escape for some fresh air & the beauty of the Drakensberg surroundings, or if you're just needing a clean & comfy bed for the night. This comfortable cottage sleeps 3 (Queen bed, single bed, as well as a campcot if needed) The Queen bed has a duel-electric blanket, perfect for those chilly winter nights! Willowlea Cottage has a small kitchenette, and although it isn't self-catering, there is everything you need for your breakfasts and tea/coffee in the morning, it has an airfryer, microwave, gas hotplate & pot/pan, if you'd like to do some basic cooking. Although with that said there are plenty of wonderful restaurants just a stone-throw away! We are just what you need if you're in the area for a wedding, sporting event, or just passing through. The en suite bathroom has a bath and shower (as well as kiddies potties and bath accessories). We have free WIFI, safe parking, a kids jungle gym, and a separate entrance through your own secret garden! Location: 1.4km from Spar and Underberg Village 2km from Underberg Country Club 11km from Glencairn 5km from Umzimkhulu Bridge (Drak Challenge) 34km from Sani Pass Border
Hi, I'm Leigh! I'm new as a host, but I'm excited to be able to share our cosy little garden cottage with you! My husband Simon and I own/run The Fitness Factory gym in Underberg. We both love adventures and the outdoors (Simon can talk about Landrovers for hours!) - so whether you are here for a wedding, sporting event, or on a little getaway, we look forward to welcoming fellow adventurer's & travellers to our little haven!
