Kingfisher Cottages is a highly recommended property for self catering in Montagu for tourists visiting the Breede River Valley region.
Kingfisher Cottages is situated in the picturesque mountains some 25 kilometers outside the town of Montagu, Western Cape. The Farm is the second last in a secluded valley with no traffic apart from the last neighbours. Here you can truly relax and unwind in a tranquil environment far from the everyday hustle and bustle.
The farm is environmentally friendly and runs solely on renewable energy (solar and hydro turbines) and strives exclusively towards sustainability and organic methods in its farming practices,which include a recirculating trout aquaculture system.
Kingfisher Cottages offers accommodation for up to 16 guests in four seprate cottages.
Each cottage has either one or two bedrooms and is able to accommodate up to four guests. The bathroom makes use of a shower and separate dry composting toilet. All linen and bedding is provided, and there is no need to carry bulky towels with you either.
There is an open plan living area as well as a kitchen. The fully equipped kitchen has a two-plate gas stove, bar fridge and tea and coffee available. In line with our sustainable operation and to minimize the ecological impact we supply biodegradable guest amenities and dish-washing liquid.
The surrounding mountains offer great hiking (demarcated routes include 'leopard trail' and 'rock pool trail'), mountain biking (bring your own bikes) and typical Karoo and Cape birding.
There are also kloofs with plenty of fabulous rock pools to cool off in.

Our stay at kingfisher was anything but ordinary! It was absolutely amazing and so far in isolation it’s bliss!! The drive to the cottage is adventurous but definitely worth it when you arrive at the beautiful cottage. A definite recommendation for anyone looking to get out of the hussle and bussle of the city life. 10 out of 10. Thank you Vivian

Beyond the natural beauty, Kingfisher Cottage and the stillness of this little hideaway have found a special place in my heart. The unpolluted magical night sky, the raw beauty of the rolling hills and the personal touch by Vivian all contributes to an amazing break from the city. A much needed getaway for myself and Graeme. And the trout ... delicious!! We will definitely be back.
