Cottage

Indepent article on Holiday Inspirations

The 'Rondawel' is a little bit of Africa in Australia! It is self-contained with a beautiful large glass and timber living area, two hexagonal bedrooms and a fantastic bath overlooking the fragrant gardens. Relax by the log fire in winter, or enjoy cool breezes in summer.

Have a "braai" (BBQ) on the deck with the branches of the 500 year old fig tree touching. It feels like living in amongst the trees! Enjoy a hearty breakfast of 'boerewors'(tasty sausage), eggs and Sashaba (tangy tomato sauce) which we can provide, or order a traditional South African dinner by candlelight.

Have a relaxing aromatherapy massage in the comfort of the cottage, followed by a luxurious bath. Listen to African music, whilst sipping your favourite drop. Enjoy a meal in one of the many excellent restaurants, browse the art galleries, or go for a rainforest walk. Only a short drive to beautiful beaches. Or just chill out under the fig tree. Share with some friends. Ideal for a romantic weekend away. Relax ...revive ... revitalise!

We love having kids! There are big lawns to run around, and some pretty big trees to try and climb! We also have a hammock under the one tree, and I believe there are fairies under the 500 year old figtree! Maleny has a few lovely play areas, as well as of course Australia Zoo close by. Kids love it here!

Winter Holiday

Log fire.

Winter at The Rondawel means sitting in front of the log fire with a glass of your favourite drop in your hand. Very cosy and very relaxing! Order a traditional South African meal to be brought to your cottage - and you don't have to brave the cold! And when the mists come over the mountain, there is not a better place to be! Cosy in your lovely cottage!
