farm stay - accommodation - self catering - Bedford - hunting

Deep in the Baviaans River Mountains near where they join the Winterberg range, in the scenic and malaria- free Eastern Cape, lies Huntly Glen. Only 3 hours drive from the airport cities of East London and Port Elizabeth, in the Bedford district, this is an ideal venue for a week-end getaway or a hunting safari.

Huntly Glen is the historic home of the family of Thomas Pringle, leader of the 1820 Scottish Settler Party, and 5th generation Ernest and Anne Pringle invite you to share this idyllic spot with them and to learn about this fascinating area.

Accommodation

Stay in a neatly restored and fully furnished farm-house.  There are 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, of which 2 are ensuite.  The 2 other rooms share a bathroom and separate toilet.  The kitchen is fully equipped, where the lounge and dining room each have their own fire-place for those chilly winter evenings.

On the one side of the house there is a braai/boma area and on the other, a large patio with un-ending views across the mountains.  The large patio makes for a wonderful area to sit and relax while watching kudu as they quietly make their way across the opposite slope down to the water trough.

The house is far enough removed from the main homestead to ensure complete peace and quiet.  The house is let out on a self-catering basis, so it is ideal for group bookings.  To ensure complete privacy, when a group or a couple books the house they have exclusive use of it for the duration of their stay.
