    What a beautiful cottage with such a friendly host. The place was perfect and the fireplace warmed up the whole place so quickly. Every thing you might need was already there and we loved the way it was decorated. We will definitely come back...

    Really loved the location and facilities. Bed was comfortable too. The place was spotless. Although only a 1 night stop, Rowena greeted us warmly. Would definitely return.

Moortop Cottages, Rowena
I love that each cottage has it's own private braai (barbeque) area. Two cottages have the braai under cover and the other has a deck with a braai in the garden. The cottages are simple and clean and kitted out with all you'll need for a successful and comfortable time away. The cottages are situated close to one another, which is great for group bookings, but also separated by 'braai rooms,' providing privacy for each cottage.
My husband and I absolutely love having guests stay at the cottages. We enjoy showing people around the farm when they request it and allowing guests to explore and enjoy their surroundings.
Moortop Cottages is very well situated. It is just 2km from the N2 and the very popular Peregrine Farmstall. We are also close to various wine farms and wedding venues. There are so many wonderful places to visit and explore in our area, including the Elgin Railway market and mountain biking trails. The cottages are situated on a small working farm with beautiful orchards surrounding them. We love it when guests get to experience and share in our little slice of heaven.
