Description

Located on Wild Fox Hill in Hogsback, Eco Fox Den offers an off-the-grid experience in a warm and unique dwelling which allows guests to relax on the intimate veranda. Watch the sunrise over the mountains while having a sundowner at the bonfire pit and listen to the rare Cape parrots flying up the valley to roost for the night.

This eco-friendly den can accommodate a total of 6 guests at a time and comprises 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. The cosy main bedroom is furnished with a queen-size bed and features an in-room bath, washbasin and toilet. The second bedroom has cordwood built into a feature wall and consists of 2 comfy single beds. A shower, washbasin and toilet are available in the second bathroom. Linen and bath towels are provided.

The open-plan living area features a kitchen equipped with a 2-plate gas stove, fridge-freezer, cutlery and crockery as well as tea- and coffee-making facilities. Leading from the kitchen is a 4-seater dining table as well as 2 single daybeds in the bay window. Complimentary Wi-Fi is available. This area opens up onto a veranda where guests can enjoy the spectacular mountain views while braaing on the Weber, or relaxing on the stone benches and a bonfire pit for evenings under the stars.

This unit’s electricity is provided by the sun, the hot water by the solar geyser or donkey boiler and drinking water by the rain. Wild Fox Hill is a developing farm with over 50 free-range chickens and grows a variety of vegetables, berries and fruit and nut trees.
