Turaco Farm Cottage is a cosy self-catering cottage and is the perfect place to escape the hustle and bustle of life for a couple of days of country living. We are conveniently located in the heart of the Magoebaskloof on Blueberry Heights Farm. Our location is a great base to explore the area and local attractions.

The cottage comprises with a lovely fully equipped kitchen, large lounge with a wood-burning fireplace, master bedroom with a Queen-sized bed and lots of cupboard space, bath and separate toilet. The lounge has breathtaking views overlooking Ebenezer Dam, with a big stone fireplace that forms the heart of this 50 year old cottage.

We are able to add bunk beds into the lounge to accommodate kids if required. The cottage is located next to the main farm house where the owners stay but it has its own private parking and private deck with views over Ebenezer Dam.

We have lovely pine forests, natural gullies and streams, swimming and picnicking on Stanford Lake and Ebenzer Dam, a beautiful waterfall and many other places to explore. During blueberry season guests are able to book a tour of the blueberry orchards and pick their very own fresh, organic blueberries.

The farm also has lots of wildlife and beautiful birds to encounter including duiker, side-striped jackal, genets, mongoose, turacos, fish eagles, barn owls, and many more.

"Cozy cottage on a beautiful farm."

We needed a quiet weekend getaway in the winter and got it. The fireplace was equipped with wood, the bed comfortable and warm, and the garden and farm around it were beautiful. We also saw a Knysna Loerie from the porch! The morning fog in the patch of forest in front of the cottage was beautiful. The dirt road was short and a sedan could easily drive on it. We walked far and were able to fish without any disturbances - nice and quiet with a mountain biker every now and then on the walking/mountain bike trails around the farm and Broederstroom. The main road (R71) can be heard in the distance, but it's not extremely loud. The coffee shop which is on the farm and is also open to the public was also pleasant to visit - dog friendly with very nice breakfast, cheesecake and friendly service. If you are looking for luxury, this cottage may not be for you. The kitchen is only basically equipped (including cutlery) and the wooden deck is tired from the constant high humidity. There is only a bath, no shower. There is a four plate gas stove that is lit with matches and the oven was a challenge. However, there is a good microwave and fridge. The main house is right next to the cottage, but it was mostly quiet. The resident dogs were not too enthusiastic when they spotted our dog, but kept their distance and we were happy to be able to bring him along. Overall it was a very pleasant experience because it's a nice environment with a lot to do, and also nothing, if you need peace.

"Great location, but cottage missing finer touches."

We stayed at Turaco while attending a wedding in the area. The location and views of the cottage is superb and I would in all likelihood return. However we missed some of the finer touches that would have made the stay more enjoyable. We arrived late Friday afternoon to a freezing cottage. While there were big logs in the fireplace there was no blitz or newspaper to get the fire going. The gas heater did not have a gas cylinder. While the owners were away the weekend we were there we would be skeptical to book if they were home, as the cottage's bedroom windows and door look out onto their home. This means you would have to keep everything dark and closed up if you wanted privacy in the bedroom. There is also no mirror with enough light to do make up or your hair. It's a minor issue, but if you are here for a wedding and want to look your best, it's important. There is also no shower and the bed's mattress needs replacing as you sink into the middle. We were looking forward to taking a hike on the farm as we read about a waterfall in one of the reviews, but there was no info in the cottage regarding on-farm activities. The cottage has an amazing selection of books and if we were not there for a wedding we would have spent the whole weekend reading! I've mentioned a lot of negatives, but considering the overall feel and location of the cottage, we did have an enjoyable stay and the cottage is quaint, neat and spacious.
