    Tranquillity, facilities, the views! Pictures of the places are excellent, yet I still managed to be blown away upon arrival. The hosts are friendly and interactive with regular updates. You feel very much at home.

    The location: An amazing view, far enough from Grahamstown for peace and tranquility but close enough for comfort. The accommodation: Stunning little cottage with all the amenities that you need. Solar powered which meant no loadshedding! Overall:...

Lucy
Featherstone View Cottage is a fully equipped, private, self-catering cottage designed for practical living and simple comforts, with beautiful mountain views of Featherstone Kloof and Signal Hill. It is a calm place to reflect and unwind as you take in the breathtaking views, while still being very close to the city, shops and schools. Off the grid: take a break from load-shedding and water-shedding. The cottage is situated 5km (7 minutes’ drive) from the centre of Makhanda (Grahamstown).
The street numbering is completely random in this area, so please follow the pin rather than other house numbers.
