The cottage has everything you need for a few days visit. The view is beautiful. Angie is a lovely host. She provided juice, milk, butter eggs, bread and fruit. She also helped us to contact a mechanic when we had problems with our vehicle.

Views, views, views, this brand new private cottage is not only tastefully decorated with an extra-large king-size bed coupled with an electric blanket and a fireplace but is also based on the edge of uninterrupted views of the Sani Pass and Drakensberg mountains. What is the point of coming to this area and not enjoying these views and we genuinely offer the best view in the area. This gorgeous little cottage boasts a large verandah with a Weber braai, an outside fire pit, and a private enclosed cozy garden. The wide glass sliding doors ensure you see the view from both the bedroom and the living area. In addition, we are close to restaurants and the museum but based in a tranquil and secure location. Private off-road parking is included
After 30 years in the tourism industry, Angie is well-equipped to offer the best possible experience to her guests. Having vast experience in staying in all types of accommodation she is aware of what people want when staying in a guest cottage and is hands-on in her approach. Living in close proximity she is always available to sort out any problems you may have and to offer advice on your touring requirements.
Himeville is a small residential area on the way to the Sani Pass. The cottage is based in the sought-after Thomas Street front row and in addition to being quiet and picturesque it is close to amenities, fuel stations and restaurants.
