Waterberg Cottages is a highly recommended property for self catering in Vaalwater for tourists visiting the Waterberg region.
Relax with the family in an historic thatched cottage set in beautiful, child-friendly gardens, alive with over 100 species of birds. Laze beside our large heated pool while the children play on the Adventure Village. Take a trip to see our family of lively hippo emerge as the afternoon light fades, and round off the day with a braai, as the sun sets over the Bushveld.
At Windsong Cottages we extend a warm welcome to families. Having three small children ourselves we understand the needs and concerns of families, and aim to provide a relaxing, fun, child-friendly environment. Our offspring always enjoy the chance to meet new playmates.

A wonderful little gem where the parents can unwind and enjoy the fresh air. Our toddlers loved every moment from playing on the jungle gym to exploring the gardens and giving love to all the very friendly dogs. The highlights for them were the semi- heated pool which we spent hours in and the amazing horse rides. Thank you to all the staff for making us feel so welcome and for all your patience and kindness with the girls.

Service was excellent, place is very neat and clean. The one problem we experienced was the 4 or 5 km dirt road we had to drive with small vehicles to get to cottage. The website needs to be updated so that this information is in ncluded so people are aware as I damaged my vehicle driving back home.
