Accommodation

Spacious comfort at Lady Grey Walk Cottage

Lady Grey Walk Cottage is a comfortable and spacious Cape Dutch styled house, with a cosy atmosphere and ample space for all the family, where you can kick off your shoes and relax.

The House is situated in the small village of McGregor, just a twenty-minute drive from Robertson and a two-hour drive from Cape Town. The quaint and picturesque village is well-known for its unique Cape architecture of thatched roofs and whitewashed walls.

Guests will be enchanted by the views of the surrounding mountains and vineyards. Surprisingly for its small size, the village has plenty to offer, such as – a local museum, restaurants, coffee shops, hiking trails, a Nature Reserve and an art route.

Wine and wonder at the Lady Grey Walk Cottage

Lady Grey Walk Cottage is closely situated to some excellent wine farms in the region, such as the McGregor Winery.

The house is equipped for self-catering and offers two bedrooms and a loft room. One of the downstairs bedrooms and the loft room has a double bed, while the third room has two single beds.

There is a sunny, open-plan living room and a fully-equipped kitchen. The house has three bathrooms in total, two of them being en-suite bathrooms.

For guests, there is a wonderful and spacious patio with a fireplace, where you can sit outside and enjoy the view of the mountains and garden. There is also a private courtyard, which is the perfect spot to sit and have a peaceful breakfast.

Lady Grey Walk rooms — *Comfortable rooms*

The house is pet-friendly and can accommodate a total of eight people, with an automated garage to park your cars.

The accommodation is neat and tidy. The modern furnishings, such as a big chandelier, book shelf with books, comfy sofa and clean white bedding, give it a cosy cottage feel.

For those, who love walking and hiking in nature, the Vrolijkheid Nature Reserve offers rugged beauty. In the spring, it lives up to its name – happiness, as bright orange Botterblom daisies cover the rocky Karoo landscape, offering a delightful treat for visitors

I would highly recommend that guests explore the village, by hiring a bicycle or walking around town to view the unique architecture of the region, which includes cob and straw bale buildings.

Home Food and Travel advice on finding the right accommodation

So what is the right accommodation? Well more often than not, it’s your travel budget that dictates the type of accommodation that you choose.

Expensive is not always better. Our team at Home Food and Travel will tell you that they have camped in areas with limited ablutions and had a wonderful holiday. They have also spent a night in a five star hotel only to be disappointed because their expectations exceeded the experience.

The reason for your travels will also affect your choice. A business trip requires different amenities to a beach holiday.

Our articles, reviews and experiences can certainly help you make your decision.

Restaurants with a good mix of service, food and ambiance

To my mind a great restaurant offers three things – excellent service, great food and a wonderful ambiance. Of these, service is the most important.

No matter that the food is delicious and the setting delightful, poor service can ruin the occasion. However, great service combined with mediocre meal and a plane jane restaurant can still be a pleasant night out.

We’ve eaten in restaurants that are really dirty but with incredible food and couldn’t help but give a rave review. We’ve also hardly noticed what we ate because the setting was just amazing.

However, the best restaurants come with the best of service, food and ambiance.

Spas are the ultimate relaxation aid

How do you know when you have had a great spa experience? The answer, of course, is when you doze off on the treatment table.

Well that’s our theory anyway. It also doesn’t take a grand location with enormous facilities for a spa to be really good

A small, personal spa that is owner run can result in the best massage you have ever experienced. However, the grand spas in five star hotels offer unsurpassed facilities in an environment that just makes the stress in your shoulders and neck melt away before you even finish checking in.

Adventure!

You don’t have to be an adrenaline junky to enjoy an exciting experience. In fact, what are commonly termed adventure activities usually have incredibly high safety standards and unblemished safety records.

Ziplining, bungy jumping and shark cage diving are all very safe. It’s just that our mind tells us we are craaazzzzyyyy to be doing this.

On the road to great places of accommodation, restaurants, spas and adventure activities

If you’re driving, be safe and make use of all the wonderful farm stalls that populate South Africa’s open roads.

If you overhear somebody asking a lot of questions or see someone taking photos of empty bedrooms chances are it’s one of our Home Food and Travel team members.

We’re out looking or those great places of accommodation, restaurants, spas and adventure activities.

See you on the road!
