The cottage consists of two bedrooms on the ground floor, each with their own full bathrooms, including a slipper bath and large shower in each. There is an upstairs loft area with four single beds and a third bathroom (shower and WC). The house sleeps eight people (two double beds downstairs and four single beds upstairs). There is a large open-plan kitchen, lounge, and dining area leading out through a sliding folding door onto an elevated 65m² balau timber sundeck. The kitchen is equipped with a dishwasher, washing machine, tumble dryer, microwave, fridge and gas stove. The cottage is ideal for two families of four or a similar configuration. Fishing: If fly-fishing is your game, there are six stocked trout dams on the Bend in addition to 4kms of Mooi River frontage. Please be aware that there is a rod fee/permit. Catch and release angling is practised on The Bend. The Trout Fishing policy and regulations are available from the Owners of Galway Cottage. Other activities: There is birding, a heritage of San rock art, challenging mountain biking terrain, and 40kms of horse riding (available through The Bend Country Lodge reception), hiking and walking trails. The Bend is also well situated to participate in the Midlands Meander which involves driving on the country roads from one spot to another, including restaurants, arts and crafts, animal farms for children and other areas of interest. The Midlands Meander was founded in the 1970s by a group of crafters living in the area to encourage visitors to come and shop in their area. Home-grown, hand crafted and authentic became the trade-mark of the Meander which now has in excess of 180 participating businesses along the various well marked routes. The Meander abounds with agri-tourism, butterfly crafters where 80% or more of the items have been crafted by the owner, selective shopping in the country, and a variety of artists, crafters and child-friendly outdoor venues.
