About Our Cottages

Beyond Urban's cottages were the first structures to be built on the Misty Mountain Farm in 1980.  Initially, these were constructed for labourers who worked on the farm, but they have now been restored to our relaxed rustic cottages.

The inhabitants of these quaint cottages worked on the original dairy farm that was located on the site.  The farm workers used to start work at 4am with their daily chores that included milking the cows, feeding the calves and ensuring the mielie fields were in good standing.    Being part of such a small community would ensure that plenty of daily laughs and stresses were shared amongst the workers.  Today, we aim to honour this strong sense of community by having cottages that have a central focus.  Additionally, a boma will ensure that night times are pleasantly spent around a fire, staying true to the South African culture. 

Two semi-detached, two bedroomed cottages, each with screeded cement floors, each with their own unique decor.    The cottages are serviced daily.  Although the cottages are self catering, guests are most welcome to dine at the nearby Misty Mountain Reserve restaurant, or order take away's, pre-booking is essential.  Wi-fi.  Convenient BBQ/braai and picnic baskets can be arranged along with refreshments, which can be delivered to your cottage. Braai wood and firelighters are available to purchase at reception.
