Thank you for your warm welcome, a beautiful cottage, and a laid-back atmosphere. We found your children open and welcoming too, and Jonathan, our four year old, enjoyed their company as playmates. We arrived back in Johannesburg to a downpour of 44 mm: we hope you were blessed with some of the same.

A bit about this place
Relax with the family in an historic thatched cottage set in beautiful, child-friendly gardens, alive with over 100 species of birds. Laze beside our large heated pool while the children play on the Adventure Village. Take a trip to see our family of lively hippo emerge as the afternoon light fades, and round off the day with a braai, as the sun sets over the Bushveld.
At Windsong Cottages we extend a warm welcome to families. Having three small children ourselves we understand the needs and concerns of families, and aim to provide a relaxing, fun, child-friendly environment. Our offspring always enjoy the chance to meet new playmates.
For the energetically minded guest there is a tennis court available, canoeing on one of our dams, and everything from a gentle walk to a serious hike through the Bushveld.
Nearby, on the same farm, is the world famous Horizon Horseback Adventures, with over 70 horses to choose from, and a wide variety of equine activities, ranging from a gentle hack through the game reserve to cattle cutting and cross country
Other nearby activities include ‘Big 5’ game drives, feeding the orphan white rhino at the Waterberg Rhino Museum, elephant backed game viewing, and spectacular helicopter flights over the Waterberg escarpment.
Our cluster of four cottages are set at the heart of Triple B ranch, an active cattle and crop farm, which has been cultivated continually by four generations of the Baber family. The farm is located in the malaria-free UNESCO designated Waterberg Biosphere, renowned for its game, unspoilt beauty, tranquility and hospitality. Bird life is abundant and varied, with over 250 species of bird on the farm.
