    The cottage was totally unique in design and decor, very comfortable inside and the surrounding area was breaktaking. I even spotted some wildlife in the camp next door. Plenty of birdlife as well. HOT water in the bathroom and kitchen -...

The houses are uniquely decorated according to the 'house name' (ancient Sumer or ancient Egypt) with a mixture of something ancient and something copper. With this unique experience, you get the opportunity to rest and relax and enjoy the arty. Here you reconnect with yourself and nature. We are situated just outside Potchefstroom with many tourist attractions among us. At the Ancient Copper Shed, you reconnect with yourself and nature - where silence echoes!
We are situated on a small farm in the countryside just outside Potchefstroom in the direction of Parys and the Vredefort Dome (meteor impact site), a World Heritage site.
