The
family cottage is set in the indigenous bush. It consists of two en suite
bedrooms, one with a queen size bed, and the other with twin three
quarter beds. Each room has its own wooden deck, one that is in the
treetops. There is a lounge and dining room, fully equipped kitchen, and
barbeque facilities. The cottage has a well stocked library for those who
like to read and fans are provided for those hot summer nights. There is
an open air shower on the "tree top" deck for the more
adventurous. The cottage has a lock up garage. A small plunge swimming
pool is available for all guests, set in the garden by the rondavels. A
wholesome farm breakfast is served on the wooden deck of the main
farmhouse, overlooking the dam with its interesting bird life. A packed
breakfast is provided for those early starters.
Activities
on the farm include a short walk through the farm and down to the
banks of the Sabie River. We allow fly fishing for yellowfish in the
river. Watch out for crocodiles and hippos. Bird life is abundant for
those bird watchers, with some specials like Narina Trogons and Pied
Mannikins. Rock-A-Bye is ideally situated to visit the Kruger Park,
which is only 20 minutes away from us. Three gates are close by,
Phabeni, Numbi and Paul Kruger gate. Self drive or get us to arrange
an open vehicle safari with a guide, morning, afternoon, full day or
night. Kruger is a low risk malaria area so take the necessary
precautions. We are also the ideal base to explore the Panorama route,
which includes Blyde River Canyon, Bourkes Luck Potholes, Pilgrims
Rest, Gods Window, and all the lovely waterfalls. Visit the Shangana
Cultural Village to experience the culture of the local Shangaan
tribe. For the adventure seekers, there is river rafting, quad biking,
horse riding, abseiling, mountain biking, hot air ballooning, and many
more activities only minutes away from us.
