Olive Cottage - more than just a place to stay

Enjoy peace of mind living on the property of a sustainable eco residence. Lock-up and go, fully serviced and furnished, available for medium or long-term rental. 100% off-the-grid - no need to worry about load shedding or water cuts. 

If you love nature and want to enjoy the bush-lodge-feel in the city, Olive Cottage is for you. It’s not just a garden cottage: it’s a unique city escape into off-the-grid, farm-like living, only a stone's throw away from the vibrant neighbourhood of Linden and Cresta Shopping Centre, safely nestled in the boomed-off suburb of Darrenwood.

Surrounded by lush indigenous gardens you will catch beautiful views of Northcliff from its private wooden deck.
