Living and dining at Cook’s Cottage

Cook’s Cottage makes self-catering a breeze in its open-plan living, kitchen and dining area – hence its name ‘Cooks’. The modern, well-equipped kitchen and island (with bar seating for 3) have a gas hob, electric oven and Le Creuset cookware, all overlooking a separate dining table and chairs (with seating for six), providing ample room and a relaxed atmosphere for all occasions.

The three, ‘flop-into’ sofas in the main living area are nestled around a wood-burning Morso fireplace with an overhanging flatscreen TV, DStv and surround-sound, sound system, making this a very cosy area to relax in the winter, or in summer with the door open to the plunge pool in the front-courtyard garden and pool loungers.

From the kitchen and dining room, French doors open onto a side-veranda with a table and chairs for six, as well as a large daybed and a Weber barbeque (braai) for alfresco diners. All the windows and doors have American shutters – so in the heat of summer you can sleep with doors open, letting the breeze cool you off.

And for those sunny summer days when you just want to kick back, the front courtyard garden offers sun loungers on a deck, a grass lawn and views back over the mountains and a 3m x 3m plunge pool.
