Elands Valley Featherbrook

In the rolling highlands of Mpumalanga — split between Machadodorp and rural Dullstroom. Elands Valley Featherbrook sits in Machadodorp about 18 km from the town center, while a cozy cottage option is tucked into Dullstroom countryside near bird-of-prey rehabilitation, whiskey-tasting experiences, nature reserves and local ruins.

Rooms at the hotel are warmly decorated and come with TVs; the cottage leans rustic-chic with an indoor fireplace, LCD TV and garden views. The cottage also has a private bathroom with a deep soaking tub and a hair dryer. Kitchens are fully equipped for self-catering, and room features vary by category.

Onsite parking and free self-parking for drivers. Barbecue areas and grills for evening cookouts, a welcoming fireplace in the lounge, and garden spaces to soak up crisp highland mornings.

Self-cater with a full-sized refrigerator/freezer, stovetop and microwave in the cottage. Outdoor barbecues make for simple, social meals, and local tasting experiences and regional producers are close by for sampling hearty highland flavors.
