Description

The Owl Nest House is nested on the edge of the artistic Karoo town of Nieu Bethesda, surrounded by agricultural fields, groves, and mountains and mere 300 m walk from the well-known Owl House. The house offers a practical modern layout and modern features while maintaining the aesthetic characteristics of a classic Karoo 'barn' design with old Oregon pine wooden floors and Oregon window frames. The property in general and the upstairs braai room specifically offers breathtaking views of the adjacent fields, groves, Kompasberg and historical Dutch Reform Church.

The house can accommodate up to 6 adults with 2 children, and comprises 4 bedrooms, and 2 en-suite bathrooms. The main bedroom contains a double bed. The second and third bedroom each contain 2 single beds, while the fourth bedroom contains a bunk bed ideal for kids. A shower and bath are available in each of the 2 bathrooms. Note that the two on-suite bathrooms allow for an ideal occupation scenario of 2 couples and 4 children. Please take note that the layout of the 2 en-suite bathrooms may not be ideal for 3 different couples or families. Towels and bedding are provided.

The kitchen is fully equipped for self-catering and contains a stove, oven, 2 retro fridge-freezers, microwave, dishwasher, and cutlery and crockery. Tea and coffee are provided. The Breakfast area has seating for 6 guests.

Owl Nest House offer a cosy downstairs lounge area with a bar counter and a high-end 'slow burning oven' fire place. The upstairs TV room for kids has an old-style TV, DVD player and Hi-Fi. The fireplace, various heaters and electric blankets take care of those cold Bethesda nights.

The design allows for 'vacation living' with a second level braai and entertainment area seating 14 people around a 4 m long yellow wood table that can be used during both winter and summer with the option to open or close the canvas blinds.
