This spacious, free-standing cottage in TWEE RIVIERE village, enjoys a restful, scenic position on the tree-rich campus grounds of The South African Institute for Heritage Science - home of the popular Belfry Kitchen restaurant!
(Power for lights & water are backed up, and not subject to load shedding)

The space
The setting is unique: A small, academic campus, located in a thoroughly rural valley setting.

Guest access
Most of the 15 hectare campus grounds and landscape is accessible to guests, including the campus cafeteria, The Belfry Kitchen.
Out of bounds are: The faculty buildings themselves and the handful of private residences on the grounds.

Please also note that Orchard View Cottage (and its grounds) will only be accessible to the actual guest occupants, as reserved by name. Third parties may not be received or permitted access without the campus' express consent.

Other things to note
Due to campus policies, please note that outdoor cooking is restricted on the grounds, and that footwear is required if venturing about on campus - though bare feet are WELCOME at one's actual place of accommodation of course!

Kindly also take note of the campus grounds' rates guidelines in respect to babies/toddlers, which are as follows:

Infants under the age of 12 months stay free of charge. From the moment such young guests become mobile, however, their presence must be counted.

This directive was distilled and adopted in the campus' long-standing practice of awarding a 50% rebate for babies/infants between the ages of 12 - 24 months, thereafter reverting to full fees beyond the age of two years.
