Description
Eureka is situated in Winterton, KwaZulu-Natal. The house is on a working farm and ideally suited for a small family or group of friends. It is a solar-powered dwelling, surrounded by water.
This rustic home is an interesting eclectic mix of old and new and comprises 2 bedrooms and can accommodate up to 4 guests at a time. The main bedroom has a queen-size bed and an en-suite bathroom with a bath, toilet, and basin. The second bedroom has 2 single beds and the second bathroom has a shower, toilet, and basin. Gaze upwards on this top floor, and enjoy the unique, old fashioned, imprinted ceilings.
The kitchen is equipped with a stove, oven, fridge, slow cooker, snackwich maker, kettle, crockery, and cutlery. The lounge features a couch, armchairs, and 2 beanbags. A favourite is to relax on the main deck featuring all-weather loungers, an L-shaped couch, a hammock, and a braai.
For guests' entertainment, there is a pool table and table tennis, as well as a selection of board games. The property has 3 decks with beautiful views onto the Little Tugela River, the neighbouring Newhouse Dam, and of the mighty Drakensberg to the west. Guests have access to the whole property of approximately 10 hectares. Enjoy the paddocks, river and the dam behind the house. Otherwise, simply kick back and enjoy the outdoors and country feeling from the decks.
Behind the house is a wetland area with a small dam boasting beautiful water lilies, also home to the famous lily hopper, The African Jacana. An Ethiopian Snipe and a Marabou Stork have also been sighted. This is a great place for bird watching, and the Amur Falcons can be seen swarming from November to April.
The farm has 2 shops including Kwaphakamisa, a factory shop satisfying meat, cheese, and butter needs, as well as the Pig and Plough, a wonderful farm stall with a wrap-around porch where guests can enjoy pizzas, pulled pork, English breakfasts, and much more.
