Description

Fossil Hills Aloe Cottage is situated on Thornvilla Farm, in the Breede Valley between Robertson and McGregor. This working wine farm forms part of the McGregor Winery. Grapes, plums, apricots, and various vegetables are harvested each year. The name 'Fossil Hills' comes from the fossils that were and are still found on the farm, dating back to the Age of Fishes 355 million years ago.

The cottage comprises 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, accommodating 6 guests. The main house sleeps 4 guests and the annex sleeps 2 guests. The first bedroom in the main house is furnished with a double bed and the second bedroom with 2 single beds. The guest bathroom is fitted with a bath and shower. The remaining bedroom in the annex is furnished with 2 single beds and has an en-suite bathroom fitted with a shower.

The open-plan living space features an air-conditioned lounge with a TV with DStv and a fireplace, and the kitchen is equipped with a fridge-freezer, a two-plate stove with a mini oven, and a microwave. Outside, there is a covered patio with a braai and a KolKol wood-fired hot tub, with firewood provided. Complimentary Wi-Fi is also available.

Two mountain bikes, a kayak, and fishing rods are provided for guests to use. The area offers many outdoor activities such as fruit orchards, olive groves, vineyards, walking and hiking trails, mountain biking, 4x4 trails, as well as bird watching in Vrolijkheid Nature Reserve. The hosts offer wine walks, and guests are welcome to enquire for more information. Guests can also enjoy the pottery studio, art galleries, and cob house building, or enjoy a meal at the local coffee shops, restaurants, or pubs.
