“There is something about stone cottages with fireplaces, scalding hot showers and warm cosy beds that fits so well on a farm 6500ft above sea level.”

Accommodation at Vrederus Wild Trout
Vrederus is located more than 6500ft above sea level near Naude’s Nek pass which is the second highest dirt road in the country. The cold, clean air and country surroundings make the stone cottages the perfect accommodation for your visit. Whether star gazing with a whiskey at night or snuggling up around a fire with a glass or red wine, these cottages are EXACTLY what you want to be staying in when visiting beautiful highland country.
