In close vicinity of the Greater Addo Elephant Park and the Sunshine Coast, The Green Tree Cottage welcomes you! The Green Tree Cottage is situated on a working dairy farm, Wycombevale, where your host & hostess, Datie & Lezl van Niekerk, will make your stay a most memorable one. Enjoy staying in three luxuriously decorated air-conditioned cottages, dine in our private dining room, and experience Game viewing in the malaria free Eastern Cape. If the sun, beautiful beaches and nature are what you are looking for - look no further! We have it all within a short drive from the Green Tree Guest Cottage. The Green Tree Cottages are also perfectly situated for the traveler, traveling from Durban or East London, on the way to Port Elizabeth or Cape Town, looking for stay over place to break the tiresome journey.
The Green Tree Cottage started off as one cottage, which used to be an old garage, which turned out to be a very spacious and popular Guest Room for visitor's visiting the Addo National park and surroundings. Deciding to expand the business Johan & Lezl saw the opportunity for two more cottages in an old farm shop close to their home, and a fourth cottage next to it.
All four the cottages are very spacious, all with own entrance, veranda and barbeque facilities.
"The Porcupine Cottage" (Cottage No 1) is the Family Room with one double bed and two single beds for children. The bathroom consists of a bath and shower, done in stone to give it that earthy, organic feel. All the Rooms have clock radios, television, ceiling fans, bar fridges with condiments, and hairdryers.
"The Springbuck Cottage" (Cottage No 2) has a double bed, and extra single bed(s) are available, should they be required. It is the only cottage with its own fully equipped kitchen. The bathroom is en-suite and consists of large shower, toilet and basin. The room has dining table, lounge area and honesty bar.
"The Bushuck Cottage" (Cottage No 3) is also a double room with en-suite wet room (huge shower). Both cottages have a lovely view, and from the patio you can see guinea fowl and farm animals in the fields and enjoy the calm of the Eastern Cape sunsets.
“The Kudu Cottage” (Cottage 4) is the room with twin beds, if needed they are done as King-size. The cottage also has an en-suite bathroom with shower, and as all the other cottages, gives you enough space, to ensure a very comfortable stay. All the cottages are tastefully furnished with Cape cottage furniture and a hint of Africa to create a tasteful southern African interior.
Lezl serves hearty Farm style breakfasts in the spacious and inviting private dining room. Dinner is also available by prior arrangement. There is a bar area for pre-dinner drinks and a fireplace for those chilly winter evenings.
New developments at The Green Tree Cottages
Adjacent to The Green Tree, is the original Farmhouse of the farm Wycombevale, which belongs to brothers, Datie (from The Green Tree) & Hilgard van Niekerk. Two bedrooms in the original farmhouse, with their own private entrance from the patio, have recently been refurbished, as an alternative should the cottages be fully booked. Two lovely spacious double rooms are available, both with en-suite bathrooms. Guest staying in the farmhouse will still enjoy breakfast and supper, in the private dining room, at The Green Tree Guest Cottage, which is only a short 120m walk from the farmhouse.
The Green Tree’s facilities and the warm hospitality given by Johan & Lezl make this a lovely home experience away from home.
