Description

Rhus Cottage offers comfortable well-appointed accommodation in a charming, garden studio cottage, ideal for couples looking for a quiet and restful experience of village life in the quaint historic village of Stanford.

The cottage is situated in the back garden of a heritage-listed home where the owners reside and is fully solar-powered. Guests will have access to a shared garden and the salt-water lap pool, a braai. Although not pet friendly the garden boasts a variety of bird life, 4 resident cats, 2 chickens and numerous goldfish.

Named after the 100-plus-year-old Rhus tree in the garden, Rhus Cottage is a private en-suite establishment with a private entrance and off-street parking on request.

The cottage features spacious, light and airy open-plan living and comprises a queen-size bed, an en-suite bathroom with shower and heater, and a kitchenette with a living area. The cottage is equipped with full DStv, free Wi-Fi, bedding, towels, a mosquito net, an electric blanket, a gas fire and a wall-mounted heater in the shower all for those cold winter nights. The kitchenette is equipped with an electric kettle and toaster, a bar fridge, a microwave, tea, coffee, milk, and all utensils.

The cottage features a private patio leading to the shared swimming pool where guests can relax and enjoy the garden and mountain view. The property is located within close proximity to the village green and is 500 m from Queen Victoria Street, the main road, where guests can find restaurants, antiques and farm furniture, fashion shops, a supermarket, a bakery, and a few pubs.

The location is ideal for those wishing to explore the Overberg area; see the whales, dive with the sharks, canoe on the river, take a river cruise, experience gourmet dining, or hike the mountains.
