A private, pet friendly cottage that can accommodate two guests in the quaint suburb of Montagu West, a mere 10 minute stroll to town. Undercover safe parking, a small secure garden, spacious private braai/ bbq area with fire wood, In the cotrage, wifi, air conditioning, ceiling fans, a well equipped kitchen/lounge /dining area, flat screen TV with Netflix, sign into your apps. A cosy bedroom with a queen bed, bathroom with a bath and shower. The cottage is not affected by eskom power outages. Escape for a break and recharge your batteries while exploring magical Montagu. PET POLICY I am an avid animal lover and want my cottages to always cater for guests and their pets. I only ask, please, if your dogs sleep on the bed with you, as mine do, please bring your own linen with you. A fitted sheet, flat sheet and a throw to cover the duvet/ blanket. This helps me with the challenge of getting rid of dog hair on my sheets and ensures that the guests who do not bring pets are also happy with the accommodation. For pets who get onto furniture - *Mountain View Cottage- there are striped throws and blankets on a shelf in the TV cabinet to cover the furniture with. *Thatch Cottage- there are striped throws in a basket to cover the furniture with. GUEST ACCESS Guests will collect their keys from a keybox at the cottage gate and return them to the box after their stay. The undercover parking area is behind a manual gate. The space is quite tight to get into, but it is safe to park on the road in front of the cottage if you choose to. Other things to note The Little Gem cottages are pet friendly, each with their own private garden for guests to enjoy.GUEST ACCESS Guests will collect their keys and gate remote from a keybox at the automated gate before parking their vehicle.

I am one half of a couple that own cottages in the beautiful quaint town of Montagu in the Western Cape on the route 62. I am a chef, a foodie and a Mom of two, plus two added from hubby. I love painting, gardening and reading. My husband and I love traveling and we usually choose pet friendly, self catering accommodation where we can enjoy cooking together. @thelittlegem_montagu
