"Comfortable stay within walking distance of town"

10.0

Olive Thrush Cottage is on the edge of town which makes it very quiet en relaxed with a farm-like feel. The gas heater and fireplace came in handy on the cold winter evenings of our stay.

The room has 3 beds, but I would recommend for couples only or couples with very small children.

"Subdued Elegance and Privacy Is Yours in Victorian Prince Albert"

9.0

This was my third stay in Prince Albert and by far the best. The stylish cottage is several blocks to the East off the town's main drag, Church Street, so is very quiet and secluded. The restaurants, shops and hotels are within walking distance, and the Spar/Tops is a 3-4 minute drive away. The very handsome, well-appointed accomodation has tall ceilings, both an indoor and out door shower, two enclosed courtyards, one with a hammock, and is part of a larger spacious, enclosed, tree-shaded complex, complete with a small pond and rowboat. An electric gate provides security for car and person. Olive Thrush Cottage is my go-to place in Prince Albert now. Be sure to try lunch at O for Olive Farm!

"A charming, spotless little cottage in the perfect location—close to cafés, full of comfort, and surrounded by beautiful"

10.0

What a gem of a stay! This cottage was absolutely perfect—quaint, cozy, and spotlessly clean. It had everything we needed for a relaxing getaway. The location couldn’t have been better—just a short stroll to all the local cafés and restaurants, yet still tucked away enough to enjoy the peaceful beauty of the surroundings. Waking up to the charm of the area each morning was such a treat. Highly recommend for anyone looking for comfort, convenience, and a touch of Karoo magic!
