Schools & sport
Accommodation for school and sports visits
Somewhere quiet and private to stay while you visit a child at school or travel to a fixture in and around Pietermaritzburg.
Many of our guests are parents coming through for a school weekend, or families and teams travelling for sport. Holly Cottage is a private two-bedroom self-catering cottage on Ghyllwood Farm in Bishopstowe, an easy drive from Pietermaritzburg.
Why it suits a school or sports weekend
- The whole cottage is yours — space for the family to spread out.
- Self-catering kitchen for early breakfasts before a match or exeat.
- Secure parking on the property and a peaceful farm setting for a proper night's sleep.
- Wi-Fi, DStv and Netflix for downtime between fixtures.
- Sleeps up to six; children under 12 stay free but count towards the six-guest maximum.
- Three or four guests from R1,250 a night.
Weekends around school events and tournaments book up quickly, so it is worth checking dates early.
