About Redford House
Guests in Noble House and The Carriage House have breakfast included, and Mrs. Tiggy Winkle's Cottage is self-catering. Breakfast is served in the farmhouse kitchen or on the patio overlooking the pool. Guests will be personally attended by their hosts. Warmth, delicious food and local stories are the order of the day.
Noble House
Noble House is a double storey Georgian house with two suites. Upstairs are two double bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms with both bath and shower. Both suites have king sized beds, tea and coffee facilities and TVs. There is a small writing room on the lobby between the two bedrooms. The bedrooms have lovely views of the Tsitsikamma Mountains, lake, nature reserve, gardens and old oak trees.
Downstairs is a very large double sitting room with two fireplaces. There are comfortable couches and bookshelves and a small fridge in one of the cupboards. The house is furnished with antiques, and is most ideal for four friends or family travelling together.
Adjoining the house, at the back, are carports, so that there is easy access into the house after going out at night.
The Carriage House
This old wagon or carriage house has been restored as a guest cottage, and has had a checkered history as a stable and a shop. It has very thick walls and a ceiling made of whole poplar trees supporting an oregan pine ceiling. It consists of a very large bedroom with an en-suite bathroom with both bath and shower. It has a four poster Queen sized brass and iron bed. There are two comfy arm chairs and tea and coffee facilities. The views are of the Tsitsikamma Mountains, lake and pond, gardens and old oaks.
Mrs. Tiggy Winkle's Cottage
Mrs. Tiggy Winkle's Cottage is self-catering, and has a bedroom with a extra length queen sized bed, sitting/dining room, kitchen, bathroom with bath and separate shower. There is a second tiny bedroom, adjacent to the bathroom, which would be suitable for a small child. The cottage has a garden, outside table and chairs, and barbecue facilities.
(Mrs. Tiggy Winkle, as many of you will know, is a character in Beatrice Potter's stories for children. She was a hedgehog who had a sweet little cottage in the country.)
