DESCRIPTION:
 
Hillwatering Country House is located in a quiet and peaceful residential area just a couple of minutes from the restaurants and the centre of Sabie. At Hillwatering we offer our guests 5 very spacious bedrooms all with their own bathrooms. Some rooms have queen beds and others twin beds (three-quarter size). From four of these bedrooms you can step outside through the French doors onto a verandah, where you can sit and enjoy the clean mountain air, spectacular views of the mountains and forest clad slopes, and the 70m high Bridal Veil Falls.

All the verandahs look onto the garden where we encourage the local birds with our huge variety of plants and flowers. In the summer we serve our English and Continental breakfasts on the verandahs, (weather permitting), if the morning is chilly we move inside by the log fire. We can also arrange a 3 course evening meal (minimum 4 persons, must be pre-booked) and a packed picnic breakfast if you require an early start for a trip to the park or to your next destination.

We are less than 4 hours from Johannesburg (OR Tambo) International Airport and are a popular stop over for the overseas traveller just beginning or ending their holidays in South Africa.
