Description

Wild Fox Hill Eco Cabin is a cosy, yet spacious and rustic eco-cabin nestled in a beautiful, natural setting with spectacular mountain views and is well-positioned to enjoy beautiful morning and afternoon light. You can watch the full moon rise over the Hogsback mountains, and enjoy dazzling sunsets or have a large bonfire under the stars. It is the perfect place for couples seeking a relaxing and romantic weekend, a family or friend getaway or a place to work.

The eco-cabin is a self-catering, 3-bedroom home that is equipped with basic amenities including a fridge, gas oven and stovetop, pots, pans and crockery. On the cooler days, guests can relax on comfortable couches by the fireplace and when the sun is shining enjoy the day bed on the spacious deck where you will experience breathtaking mountain views. There is also a large bonfire pit where guests can braai.

2 of the bedrooms have en-suite bathrooms, while the third bedroom leads off the main bedroom and is perfect for children. There is a double sleeper couch in the lounge.

We are completely off the grid, with electricity provided by the sun and hot water by a solar geyser or donkey boiler.

Mountain views, forest walks, an old orchard and a scenic river and waterfall are some of the natural treasures at Wild Fox Hill, a 5.5-ha smallholding where the eco-cabin is located. Guests are welcome to explore the land and children are welcome. There is a trampoline for them to enjoy.

Wild Fox Hill is also a developing farm where we currently keep over 50 free-range chickens and grow a variety of vegetables, fruit and nut trees.

The endangered Cape Parrot is a regular presence in the area and we are close to a secret waterfall, a local dam, beautiful flower-filled grasslands, forests and extraordinary mountain views perfect for sundowners.
