Are you visiting the Addo Elephant National Park, or Schotia Safaris in the Eastern Cape, South Africa?  Keith and Nondumiso welcome you to stay in our thatched cottages on our organic citrus farm, just 10 minutes from the Addo Elephant National Park, and 45 minutes from the Port Elizabeth airport. The Addo area is malaria free.

The Greater Addo area is a wonderful place to spend a holiday - this is where 3 industries come together - conservation, tourism and farming, meaning that your stay can be filled with many diverse, rewarding and educational experiences.

We welcome self-catering guests and have built a fully equipped guest kitchen for their use. Many of our bed and breakfast guests also use the kitchen to have a break from restaurant meals and enjoy a light supper that they prepare themselves. The kitchen is adjacent to a braai (barbecue) area, where guests can cook their own meal outside, and relax next to a roaring fire in the evening, listening to the sounds of the African night. 

You might know that South Africa is currently experiencing a shortage of electrical power, and blackouts are common.

At Rosedale, we have invested in solar panels, back up batteries, and a smart control system to ensure that you will always have lighting and hot water.

Our kitchen runs mainly on gas. 

Your stay here will be minimally affected by power cuts, and you can be assured of a good breakfast and cup of coffee before you enjoy a day of game viewing. 

We have installed airconditioners in all guest rooms.

We have installed a photovoltaic solar system which supplies 50% of our electricity needs.
