Diepfontein Cottage

 
 

Description

Diepfontein Cottage is a self-catering six sleeper cottage on the farm Diepfontein, at the foothills of the Drakensberg. Diepfontein is a tranquil farm situated approximately 45 km from Maclear towards the town of Rhodes on the R396 gravel road.

On the farm you will find 14 km of streams for fly fishing of wild trout as well as a dam and some scenic features which include a 43 m high waterfall, yellow wood forest, rock art, beautiful sandstone rock formations and the Rush Valley Pan, which is a national heritage site and breeding place for the Wattele Crane bird. The area is also ideal for hiking and bird watching.

Other activities to do are the drive along the scenic Maloti Route, visit Rhodes, which is a must via the well-known Naude's pass with its scenic view, and there are also some challenging roads in the area for the 4x4 enthusiasts. During the winter months you can even experience some snowfall in the area and visit the Tiffendell Ski Resort during the months of May to August, which is close to Rhodes and approximately 80 km from the Diepfontein farm. Experience some white river rafting and abseiling at Tsitsa Falls, which is situated approximately 20 km from Maclear towards Mount Fletcher on the R56.

It offered the seclusion we were looking for, and we really enjoyed the walk on the farm: the vlei, the waterfall, seeing wattled cranes and crowned cranes. The absolute quiet, the fresh air and water. Farm life on your doorstep.
