Budget Getaways Review

Lemon Tree Cottage is a cozy little thatch number that's sure to add a dash of zest to your weekend cocktail.

Decked with oodles of character and charm, it is your typical country cottage of old - from the thatch and roughly hewn timber beams, to the whitewashed walls, sash windows and simple yet comfortable furnishings.

The vilage-rural setting is as good as you get - next to a nature reserve and a mere hop to McGregor Central. Really a case of having your cake and eating it.

Taking a peek inside, Lemon Tree is ideally suited to couples or a small family. The main bedroom is a double ensuite, while the second bedroom has twin beds.

The living area is spacious and open-plan to an equipped kitchen. Comfy sofas, convivial dining table, flatscreen TV… they're all on hand.

Step outside to a pleasant  garden area with table, braai and distant views of the surrounding hills. Life could be a lot worse on a balmy summer's eve.

Lazy days and moderate activity will be the order of your weekend: short rambles in the adjacent nature reserve and a generous portion of village delights a short stroll from the front door will fill the bulk of it.

A low risk getaway withing easy striking distance of the Big Smoke.
