Back at the cottage, we build a roaring fire
and cosy up for the cold night ahead. A story
about Oubos is not complete without a word
about a ginger cat with whom you might be
sharing your digs. I am so severely allergic to
cats I start to sneeze the moment they look
at me. Not, however, in this case. I can’t say if
I’ve outgrown my allergy or if Cheeky Cherry is
simply the non-allergic cat sort. She was in a
ginger ball on the couch when we arrived. A tip
of her tail unfurled when we approached but
that was the extent of her engagement. Later
she decided she wanted company and came
to snuggle with us under the throws on the
couch, arranged for this very purpose.
Do note that the nearest “shopping” area is
in Prince Alfred’s Hamlet which is about 30
minutes away. The meat from Geldenhuys
Butchery in the Hamlet is better than you
might expect and worth a stop.
From R800 per night during a minimum two-
night stay, this property represents excellent
value for money. Search Oubos on Airbnb or
