Fountain Baths Guest Cottages

Top choice in Mpumalanga


These seven quaint, good-sized cottages, in a beautiful and historical location on the northeastern edge of town, are well kitted out and full of character. A walking trail leads up the creek from the lovely quiet garden, where the pool was once a bathhouse for 19th-century prospectors. Wake up to the sound of birdsong.

The family-run property has a cute bar and options ranging from self-catering cottages to corrugated-iron affairs, most with their own stoep (porch). Breakfast (R60) is often served in the garden.
