Cruising the Comrades, dipping the 'Duzi, Midmar'ing the Mile, Meandering the Midlands, Mandela'ing the Marathon, Royal'ing the Show, Biking the Mountain, or just passing through? Start, or end, (or both) your 'Maritzburg mission, in the quiet Quince Cottage, a renovated stable built in 1897, bordering the KZN National Botanical Garden. Humble, 'shabby-chic', in a beautiful, indigenous, leafy surround.

Where you’ll be

Pietermaritzburg, KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa

Parking is off-street, behind automated driveway gates, and under a carport.

The property is next to the Botanical Gardens so despite being 5- 10 minutes from the city center one can feel as if one is in the country.

We are 15 minutes (or within 5.5km) from many schools including Epworth, Maritzburg College and Girl's High, St Johns and Saint Charles College.

My favorite restaurants in the neighborhood include Sagewood cafe, Essence, and Quincy's Cafe and Restaurant.

There is a lovely farmers' market on Saturday mornings at the Botanical gardens where you can get good coffee and pancakes and a large variety of home grown produce.
