BIRDER-FRIENDLY


Cosy Cottage B&B is also a Birder Friendly Establishment officially recognised by BirdLife South Africa. Potchefstroom is in the south-eastern corner of the Southern Region of the North West Province - about 120 km from Johannesburg, which makes it an ideal destination for the short-time visitor to South Africa. It lies in an area where several major habitat regions overlap. This leads to quite a variety of birds occurring here. Nature has blessed this province with breathtaking scenic beauty, infinitive tapestries of green maize and golden sunflower fields, vast plains of African bushveld, dotted with umbrella thorn trees, and wide open grassveld interspersed with mixed acacia and other bush - a birder's paradise...!!

With the most important birding spots in the area, like the world-renowned OPM Prozesky Bird Sanctuary literally on our doorstep, Cosy Cottage B&B organises customised birding trips on a daily basis. Our focus is not on birding only - we also try to ensure that our guests get a complete and memorable experience of the traditional warmth of the province as well as it's people's pride in their history and culture. Our guests will take home with them a lasting bond of friendship and an unforgetable experience of hospitality, privacy and tranquillity.

POTCHEFSTROOM


Potchefstroom offers, apart from birding, several other nature experiences. The soon to be opened Highveld National Park, as well as the established Buffelsvlei Wild Animal Park, is about 12 km from Cosy Cottage B&B. About 20 km from us lies the Vredefort Dome. 2000 million years ago a giant meteorite struck the earth near the present day village of Vredefort creating a crater 80km in diameter and forcing the surrounding landscape into a dome-like feature. This is the largest and oldest meteorite impact site on earth and is soon to be nominated for World Heritage status. The Vaal River forms the southern boundary to the area, while to the north a conservancy has been established to conserve the diverse animal, bird and plant life. The dome offers some of the finest birding, hiking and adventure tourism sites in South Africa.

If you want to be part of Africa and enjoy the luxury of a holiday with a fine blend of 20th century living and the mystique of ancient Africa, come to Cosy Cottage B&B in Potchefstroom where the owner-manager, dr. Peet van Rensburg, a well-known South African theatre director, will personally see to your comfort and treat you with the best that this part of the country can give - much more than just a comfortable overnight room - all at a very affordable daily rate!
