PET POLICY
I am an avid animal lover and want my cottages to always cater to guests and their pets. I only ask, please, if your dogs sleep on the bed with you, as mine do, please bring your own linen with you.
A fitted sheet, a flat sheet, and a throw to cover the duvet/ blanket.
This helps me with the challenge of getting rid of dog hair on my sheets and ensures that the guests who do not bring pets are also happy with the accommodation.
For pets who get onto furniture -
*Mountain View Cottage - There are striped throws and blankets on a shelf in the TV cabinet to cover the furniture with.
*Thatch Cottage - There are striped throws in a basket to cover the furniture with.
GUEST ACCESS
Guests will collect their keys from a keybox at the cottage gate and return them to the box after their stay. The undercover parking area is behind a manual gate. The space is quite tight to get into, but it is safe to park on the road in front of the cottage if you choose to.
I am one half of a couple that own cottages in the beautiful quaint town of Montagu in the Western Cape on the route 62. I am a chef, a foodie and a Mom of two, plus two added from hubby. I love painting, gardening and reading. My husband and I love traveling and we usually choose pet friendly, self catering accommodation where we can enjoy cooking together. @thelittlegem_montagu
