Description

Blesberg Farm Cottages offers self-catering accommodation on a picturesque 300-hectare working dairy farm set within 4 hectares of lush grounds in the Midlands, approximately 25 km from central Howick. The property provides a tranquil farm-stay experience, ideal for guests seeking a break from busy city life.

Accommodation comprises individually decorated cottages and a manor house, accommodating between 2 and 15 guests. Each unit contains separate bedrooms, private bathrooms, and a fully equipped kitchen or kitchenette with standard cooking appliances. The units are furnished with a fireplace and private braai facilities. Bed linen is provided, while guests are requested to bring their own towels, toiletries, food, drinks, and charcoal. Smaller cottages do not have TVs or Wi-Fi, while the Manor House and Farmstead offer Wi-Fi and DSTV.

The property features a variety of on-site activities and natural attractions. Guests may enjoy walks around the farm, swimming in the dam, or zipping into the dam from the zipline. Small boats are available for paddling, and the area offers excellent stargazing, bird watching, and wildlife observation. Various species, including duiker, bushbuck, oribi, waterbuck, hares, genets, mongoose, porcupines, black-backed jackal, and otters, can be seen on the property. Mountain biking is also possible on farm trails.

Blesberg Farm Cottages provides the perfect setting to unwind and enjoy outdoor activities such as stargazing, fishing, boating, and hiking, or to simply relax while immersing in the peaceful farm environment.
