About Mountain View Cottages

Whether you are stopping over for a short visit or planning a longer stay, Mountain View Cottages provides two welcoming accommodation options to suit your needs. Set in a tranquil corner of Nieu-Bethesda with a relaxed atmosphere, the cottages are fully self-catering and share a lovely outdoor picnic table, a delightful spot to enjoy your morning coffee or reflect on the day’s adventures.

Self-Catering Accommodation

Accommodation consists of two thoughtfully prepared units, each catering to different preferences. The Two-Sleeper Room is a compact yet cosy choice, furnished with two single beds, a private shower, and a modest kitchenette that includes a gas plate, fridge, and essential utensils.

The Four-Sleeper Cottage is better suited for families or small groups, featuring one bedroom with a king-size bed, two additional single beds in the lounge, a private shower, and a kitchen equipped for self-catering convenience. Both units provide complimentary Wi-Fi, tea and coffee facilities, and a private braai area. Linen and towels are supplied to ensure a comfortable stay.

Please refer to the individual room descriptions and accompanying photographs below to help guide your selection.

Pet-Friendly

The property welcomes pets by prior arrangement. Guests will also appreciate the free on-site parking, outdoor seating areas, and the picnic table shared between the cottages.

Location & Attractions

Situated in the Eastern Cape’s Karoo region, Nieu-Bethesda is a rare treasure where time seems to move more slowly and creativity is ever-present. This picturesque village, embraced by rugged mountains and vast skies, offers a retreat from the demands of modern life.

Nieu-Bethesda is most famous for the Owl House, the imaginative and eccentric former home of artist Helen Martins, which continues to draw visitors from around the world. The village itself exudes a timeless charm, with cobbled lanes, historic stone cottages, and the notable absence of streetlights, all contributing to its magical and atmospheric character.
