Description

Syringa Sands Mountain Cottage is situated on Syringa Sands Private Game Farm, high up in the Sand River Mountains overlooking the Seven Sister Waterberg range.

Guests can enjoy endless views, remote ruggedness, spectacular sunsets, and complete isolation. The cottage comprises 1 bedroom, a bathroom, and a kitchen. The bedroom is furnished with a queen-size extra-length bed, as well as a single bed for a child. The bathroom is fitted with a basin, and a toilet, and makes use of an outdoor shower only. The open-plan kitchen is equipped with a fridge, a stove, as well as tea- and coffee-making facilities. Meals can be enjoyed at the dining table, and guests can relax in the lounge which is equipped with 2 daybeds.

In winter, bring firewood and get warm and cozy around the combustion fireplace.

Due to the remote location, the cottage is completely off the grid and operates on limited solar power for the camping fridge, water pump, some lights in the lounge and bathroom and a hot water geyser. The cottage has limited cellphone reception with no Wi-Fi access, and relies on rainwater harvesting for up to 20 000 litres of storage, and oil lamps are provided for light.

This eco-cottage is approximately 7 km from the Syringa Sands gate and approximately 5 km from the larger cottage and campsite. The cottage can only be reached by 4x4, on foot or by mountain bike. Guests can be escorted to the cottage by Syringa Sands; this would need to be arranged to take you up in our game viewing vehicle; kindly arrange in advance.

Guests can venture into the mountains by following the 5 km hiking trail to Rankin's beacon or join the 9 km walk down the mountain to the large dam.
