Milkwood Cottage, beautifully restored to expose some of its original stonework, sleeps two in a separate bedroom which is en-suite, a further two singles can be found in the loft room. The kitchen, living, and dining area are open-plan, fully equipped, and fitted with a cast-iron fireplace for winter. Towels and linen are also provided. Outside, there's an enclosed stoep and a private garden overlooking the river.
Further along the way, Stone Cottage is like the name suggests: an old stone cottage that's been fully restored to the exacting standards of the modern Budget traveler. It also sleeps four, in two bedrooms, although the second bedroom is open plan to the living area, so has limited privacy. The bedrooms share a common bathroom with a shower. As with Milkwood, towels and linen are provided. Again the lounge etc is open-plan and fully equipped, including the cast-iron fireplace. The stoep is covered with a red ceiling and has a wonderful outlook over the water.
