Description

Relax in style and comfort in our luxury B&B or fully equipped self-catering cottages. Sleeping 2-4, they are private, secluded, some have log fires, own patios and BBQ areas.

WATERFORD MANOR is a 10-hectare property situated on the Mooi River outside the small village of Rosetta in the picturesque and serene KwaZulu Natal Midlands region. We are 8kms from Nottingham Road and 12kms from Mooi River. We have 700 metres of Mooi River frontage with many idyllic spots available for fly fishing and picnicking. The property has a lot of indigenous growth and magnificent trees, and we have laid out a couple of walking trails for the enjoyment of guests. Along these trails, you will also find fishing and picnic spots.

We have a swimming pool with a wooden deck overlooking the river, a lapa with BBQ facilities, which are available for guest use and comfort.

There are abundant wildlife species, which move freely through all the properties in the region - so be on the lookout for buck, mongoose, porcupines and otters. The birdlife is also prolific - we have a couple of resident Paradise Flycatchers and have frequent visits from the Brown Eagle as well as the Hammerkop. We also have a pair of resident Gymnagenes.
