Country Cousins - Strelitzia House was built in 2006 and has since then proved itself a leading self-catering establishment in Grahamstown. With its exquisite face brick design coupled with its wooden upstairs floors, high pitched roof and quaint dormer windows gives the house a unique character. The house is fully equipped and comfortably furished and can sleep a maximum of 6 guests. Rentals are available on a daily, weekly or monthly basis.

Accommodation (House)
The house has three bedrooms but the main bedroom must surely be the best available in Grahamstown based on its stylish design, its huge size with its full en-suite bathroom, private terrace with a marvellous view over Rhodes University and the Settlers Monument in the distance.

Two other smaller but well appointed bedrooms, with two single beds in each, make the house especially appealing to parents from our educational institutions visiting their children and having them stay over in a private home-from-home environment. The bathroom downstairs has a bath with a glass enclosure where you can close off the whole bath and be completely private! Both bathrooms have showers.

Accommodation (Flat)
A seperate flat is now part of the original Streitzia House. It comprises of a twin bedroom ( two single beds ) with a private lounge, fully fitted kitchenette with basic appliances and a private bathroom with a walk in shower, toilet and basin. The flatlet can be rented as part of the main house or as a seperate entity.

Facilities
The house has an upstairs TV lounge closed off on the inner side with a simple banister where you can peer down to the stylishly well equipped and fully fitted kitchen. A DSTV system is in place, for those persons who would like to just bring their own smart card. The unique style dining room has double doors leading out onto the beautiful patio with its magnificent view. A Braai ( Barbeque ) facility is supplied for those seeking to have a quite braai at their home-from-home.

Notes
The house has a large garden where bird life is encouraged to visit and peace and tranquility is assured. Pets are not permitted at Country Cousins. The house is normally not serviced, although this can be arranged at an additional charge and includes morning bedmaking and cleaning of bedrooms and bathrooms etc. Should one stay for a longer period, the house is automatically serviced every 4th day.

Our rates are extremely favourable as the whole house can be hired for more or less the same price as a room in another establishment hence our slogan " Why rent a room when you can rent a house?"
