 ABOUT


The Green Tree Cottages are situated in the beautiful Nanaga valley, 65 kilometers away from Port Elizabeth
(on route 72), which provides access to an international airport. This accommodation establishment offers you a warm & relaxing atmosphere on a working dairy farm in the friendly Eastern Cape.

All four the cottages are very spacious, all with own entrance, private patios and barbeque facilities. All the cottages are tastefully furnished with Cape cottage furniture and a hint of Africa to create a tasteful southern African interior, which gives a warm homely, contemporary feel.

Our Cottages can be booked on a Bed & Breakfast or Self-catering basis. A hearty breakfast is served in our inviting dining room by Lezl, and should you wish to leave early for the Addo Elephant Park, a breakfast basket can be supplied on request. Light dinner is available by prior arrangement, and booking 24 hours in advance is necessary to ensure that your meal is made of the freshest produce available. Dinner is served at your cottage.

Take full advantage of our South African weather and sunbath around our swimming pool on those warm summer days, or simply catch up on your reading (and napping!) time under the trees of our lush, peaceful garden. Playground for children is equipped with trampoline, swings and mountain bikes also available.

The cottages are a comfortable 25 minutes drive away from the world-renowned Shamwari Game Reserve and Addo Elephant Park, as well as Schotia Safaris, Amakhala Game Reserve, Kariega Game Reserve and Beyond Adventures Horse trails. The golden beaches of the Sunshine coast, which includes the holiday towns of Port Alfred and Kenton-on-Sea, are a comfortable drive away, on route 72.

Bookings for game drives on the game reserves or any other activities and supper can be made on your behalf.

The Green Tree Cottages is situated close to Bushman Sands. Bushman Sands is an 18-hole championship course and has been designed by South African golfing legend, Gary Player. The course follows the banks of the Bushman's and New Years Rivers, resembling the game's earliest "links" courses in Scotland with undulating fairways and pot bunkers.

Guests are welcome to walk around the farm, see the dairy, and look at the bird and animal life, kudu, bush pig, duiker and porky pine or some of the animals that can be seen. The Woody Cape Nature reserve and forest close to Alexandria (part of the Greater Addo) is also a gem to visit for the Nature Enthusiast.

For the bird lover, there is also plenty of bird life around the farm or you can visit the Nukakamma Canoe trail
(26 km), and do bird watching from a Canoe on the Sundays River, or take a walk along the beach at Colchester and see the beautiful moving sand dunes of the Eastern Cape.

Come and experience true Eastern Cape hospitality and the peace and tranquility that the Green Tree Cottages has to offer.

Your hosts, Datie and Lezl are looking forward to welcoming you on their farm ... click HERE to book now with The Green Tree Cottages!
