Some escapes are all about adventure. Others are about finally slowing down.
At Hippo Cottage, you don't have to choose.
Wake up to the quiet rhythm of the bush, sip your morning coffee on the deck overlooking the African landscape, spend your day exploring the mountains, spotting wildlife or casting a line, and return to a crackling fire where stories are shared long into the evening.
With two spacious en-suite bedrooms, a fully equipped self-catering kitchen, a cosy indoor braai and comfortable living spaces, Hippo Cottage is designed for families, couples and friends who want the freedom to experience the bush their own way.
Whether you're planning an adventure-filled weekend or simply looking for a place to reconnect and recharge, Hippo Cottage welcomes you home.
Because the best holidays aren't measured by how busy they are...
They're measured by the memories you take home.
Come for the stillness. Stay for the stories.
