Crooked Tree Cottage

 

Property Description

 
Crooked Tree cottage is a lovely 3 Star Bed and Breakfast/Self Catering Establishment set in the heart of Umhlanga Durban, Kwazulu Natal, one of the premier holiday accommodation/tourist hot spots in South Africa! It is literally a stones throw away from Umhlanga Village with its Blue Flag Status beaches. Gateway Theatre of shopping is a 2 min drive away and Durban CBD and ICC are about 15 minutes drive. Umhlanga New Town Centre and the La Lucia Ridge office park are on our doorstep. It is close to both the M4 and the N2 highways making access to Durban and the rest of KZN extremely efficient. This makes it an ideal accommodation venue for both Holidaymakers and Businessmen alike.

Crooked Tree Cottage is aptly named for the beautiful crooked tree that drapes over the cottage as well as other parts of the garden. These indigenous trees are ideal for the humid subtropical climate of coastal Kwazulu Natal as they provide a restful cooling shade on our hot sunny summer days and lose their leaves in the winter making the view even more spectacular! The sea views from the balconies are magnificent and the birdlife is amazing to watch. Vervet monkeys are almost daily visitors and the occasional Woolly Necked Storks can be spotted in the branches of the Albizia Trees.

Helen and Reinhard Oehler, your hosts, live on the property & run the Cottage. Helen was born in the UK and has lived in South Africa most of her life. Reinhard was born in South Africa but has had a very strong German upbringing and is resultantly fluent in English, Afrikaans and German. Their own travel experience in Beautiful South Africa was the influencing factor for Helen and Reinhard to start the B&B. Their friendly relaxed attitude combined with personal service will ensure you a memorable stay at the crooked Tree Cottage!
