Roseland Valley Retreat
3324 is no longer with usIf you were looking for cottages like Roseland Valley Retreat, how about trying these:
What could be more enchanting than this beautifully styled cabin with its carved African dark wood furniture enhanced by flashes of gorgeously bright colour in the rugs, cushions and bed linens? Well, add a wood-burner to toast your toes and doors leading out to a decked dining-area overlooking a wonderful wildlife lake and you've surely got it all? But no, there's more!
A genuine East African safari tent set slightly apart from the cabin and facing out over the water offers the most amazingly unique bedroom for couples who love snuggling up under the warmth of thick feather duvets while gazing out at the water and stars. But truly, Roseland Valley Retreat is the holiday destination that keeps on giving!
You have your own meadow with plenty of space for children to play, rope swings hanging from tall, sheltering trees and a fire-pit to gather round as the sun begins to set. There are mown paths through meadows, woods and circling the lake, an outdoor open-air shower (with hot water!) for those who like to feel at one with nature, and thirty acres of lovingly tended farmland to explore.
The cabin is a fully insulated, double-glazed timber home-from-home with an unexpectedly spacious open plan living space housing all the comforts of everyday life. There is a super-king size bed and matching carved ironwood twin beds; a spacious kitchen-area with gas hob and oven and fridge with freezer box, and a big, deep sofa and armchairs piled with cushions and set before the warming wood-burner. The shower-room has a double size shower cubicle, wash-basin and proper flushing loo (this is glamping after all!).
Outside, steps lead down to the grassy plateau where the lovely safari tent sits peacefully facing the lake, and an outdoor vanity unit with cold running water adds an unexpected touch for those spending the night under authentic African canvas.
