Mahem Guesthouse

Mahem is the Afrikaans name for the grey crowned crane. The actual call of the grey crowned crane is “mahem” and you will hear the call from the house most times in the early morning or evening. Built around 1890, this spacious but cozy home has been refurbished and extended to make a spacious entertainment area and open plan layout from the lounge to the adjacent kitchen.

There are 4 bedrooms and a bathroom section with a full bathroom with shower, toilet and bath, a separate toilet, and a shower room. All bedrooms have wall heaters, bedding and towels are supplied. The property is fenced.

There is a fireplace in the lounge and an old coal stove in the dining room. The bathroom/dining room/kitchen area has underfloor heating. The farm kitchen is fully equipped for self catering and has two fridges, a gas stove with electric oven, microwave, washing machine and dishwasher. There is a Weber braai available if you want to cook on the stoep or the patio.

The views from the patio over the wetland are really spectacular!
