Esigodini Cottage is nestled in the Garden Castle Valley, and is short scenic trip from Underberg KZN. The stone cottage was built in 1967 and has been family owned since. Rolling lawns, braai (barbecue) facilities, fire pit, and plenty to do around the property. The cottage is self catering, and can sleep up to 10 people. Breath taking views of mountains, with stunning rivers and waterfalls nearby. A full 18 hole golf course is just down the road, along with the Gooderson Drakensberg Gardens Resort which boasts an array of activities for everyone.
Esigodini is a family owned cottage, and we have our friendly staff living on site. Clement and Happiness will be looking after you during your stay and will help with daily cleaning.
The surrounding community is made up of many farms, and is on a secure road with no thoroughfare. The road to the cottage is extremely scenic, filled with plenty of areas to stop and take in the beautiful scenery around you.
